“Needless to say, I didn’t take it very well,” Georges-Alain Jones later admitted, before describing his unequivocal response. “I sent him a few words, explaining a couple of things rather harshly. I thought it would make me feel better, but it didn’t make me feel better at all, ” he lamented. “So I just cut him off completely, blocked him, and said I never wanted to hear from him again ,” Georges-Alain Jones added.
“He just needs to know that we’re two strangers.”
Later in the interview, Georges-Alain Jones explained that he did not want to re-establish contact with his father because the latter had hurt him “enough” in the past. “I know very well that it’s a bit like in America, he’s trying to atone for his mistakes because he’s reaching a certain age and I think he wants to be forgiven ,” he confided.
For Georges-Alain Jones, the door to forgiveness is closed forever. “He doesn’t need my forgiveness, he just needs to know that we’re strangers and that I have no desire to know him ,” he concluded. That’s that.
