Bros, where are you currently at in life and where do you want to be in the future?
I'm in my late 20's still living at home. I've been in and out of a technical college. I'm considering attending a university and getting a bachelor's. I'm miserable here. I don't connect with my family very much and I have very few friends.
I was working at a part-time job, but my mother kept persuading me to quit and work with the family business. It's not bad, but it's not something I'd like to do for too long. I've been exposed to family business a majority of my life and I hate it. There's too much ambiguity. Plus I know my parents can't pay me well enough.
The situation was a little better prior to my dad being imprisoned for molesting my oldest sister. She's probably in her early 30's now. It was difficult to deal with knowing what he did, living here, and having to pretend that I believed he didn't do it. The majority of my immediate and extended family took his side.
Anyway, he wrote a letter telling me that he needs someone to take over his business. I'm not too fond of this idea because I don't trust him nor do I have much trust in my mom. Plus I don't have a lot of any experience running a small business.
As for my mom, sometimes I can't stand how controlling and overprotective she is. It's to the point where I want to strangle her.
I usually hook up with older men because I didn't think I was physically attractive. I'm a skinny Twink. Lol. Now, it's slowly changing. Reading these posts and making comments has lead me to want and date someone my own age. Let's just say it's easier.
I'd probably like to become a psychologist, a civil engineer, or work for a large corporation.
I'm saving up money. I need to leave this place.
