Silver won't leave you behind in the RP. Moving is obviously a struggle day for anyone. It never goes perfectly. No worries. ^^Bolts said:

One of the potential roommates I'm messaging just asked me if I'm really 20 years old because she's 24 and thinks I sound incredibly mature for my age. xD

And of course, things can only go well for so long. We didn't go to the fancy club house last weekend while at the lake and so I didn't think twice about packing any nice clothes. Now my family is going to dinner without me because I forgot some nice clothes. Because they can't go the casual area and let me still come with them instead. I knew I shouldn't have come this weekend.

All because you didn't bring nice clothes and they couldn't compromise? They should have at least told you to bring at least one nice pair of clothing so that you're able to go together as a family.

My mom offered to bring me something home, but I don't even know what's on the menu and didn't want to bother with that...I'll probably just go to sleep early tonight or something...Thanks, I guess.crucialstar said:It isn't much but. .

Did you know what kind of food they served? Perhaps just something simple for dinner so you don't starve or anything, unless you have snacks or so.Lioness075 said:
Perhaps read something that you would enjoy online, watch some movies online, or maybe youtube comedies, they're quite nice to get your mind off of things.
If that happened to me, I'd definitely feel hurt and abandoned in a sense and angry by it. So I'd definitely rant about it and then perhaps cry it out and do something. But, sleeping also helps with my problems too, but we're here, love.

The house has food, it's not like I'm gunna starve tonight. I don't want to have them order something for me and then have to wait until they get home to actually eat anything. It's bad enough that my brother's girlfriend is with us for the weekend, too. I can only imagine how they spoke of me when they all got in the car and someone asked why I wasn't with them.crucialstar said:
It's kinda hard for me to do something enjoyable when I get in these...moods.
It seems to be getting to be a more normal thing nowadays. I guess you could say I'm slowly getting used to it, too. I've been treated like crap outside of the family for years, but it didn't used to be like this at home.

Are they okay with you moving to Canada for your schooling? Maybe it has something to do with that , that they feel like they're losing a child or rather, they don't know how to handle it so they're lashing out in a way? Who knows why they do what they do, but they definitely aren't the parents to be too well . . affectionate it seems.Lioness075 said:
I just think it's horrible how they treat you as a problem child and speak of you in such a manner. At least someone can defend you, and perhaps someone does and you'd never know. Maybe your sister would because you guys were bonding the other day if I remember correctly.
But, yeah, I get where you're coming from.

I've already been out of the house for months on end for military training. This isn't new to them, but my brother is moving out next summer and my mom has already expressed her deep sadness with that. They worry that we'll get out in the real world on our own and not be 100% ready for it (but let's be real, who ever is?). I don't honestly give a crap what their reason for it is, though.crucialstar said:
I don't know, maybe. I'd like to think she'd defend me or that someone would, but everybody kinda knows better than to try and start anything with my dad if he's around and he could turn the conversation into an argument if someone tried to defend me. He likes to twist conversations that way.
It's all just kinda wearing me down, y'know? One second, my mom is all understanding and caring, the next she's cutting me down for screwing something up or not being nice to someone despite how they might've been treating me. She never looks at anything from my point of view. Nobody does. It's always just my fault if I get into an argument with someone over anything. If I defend myself, then I somehow get in trouble for it because I'm starting an argument. *sigh*

Guess it doesn't help that my parents don't believe in victims, either. If something goes wrong for you, then it has to be your fault. As if that makes any sense.

It's really tiring because it feels like no one is on your side and even if they try, an argument occurs and it feels like it's your fault.Lioness075 said:
But, listen, it is not your fault, at all.
You are appreciated.
And if they're the type that doesn't believe in victims, that's even harder, but even they aren't perfect people either. And I'm sure they rarely ever apologize to take up for their mistake and blame it on their children though. Not every parent is perfect, but I hate when they pull that card and it's like please don't.
But, yeah, you did tell us before how they were like and how they think. My mom's the same way. She's been understanding one moment and then not so much next moment and it wears me down too. Like, what more do you want from me? It's a bit hard cause for us, she gets on my ass, forgive my language, about being lazy, though i've been busy so much this past summer I just want to sit back and relax. However, my brother doesn't do shit, but he kinda yells at my mom while I just listen to her. And it's like. . I understand you care? but thanks for caring with your rude words and deaming ones.
And idk why they do this to us and why they care so much for appearance. But it is tiring, and I wish you would be happier when you're out of state and surrounded by an environment where there are people who can understand your situation and that youll be able to smile and be happy with them too. At least face to face rather than us speaking in front of the computer.
Plus, we still need to open a psychiatry clinic together, or I will be going to you!

The line between the truth and what I should know is false tends to blur nowadays. I know I'm appreciated by most of you guys, but sometimes even that knowledge can't get me out of my dreary mood.crucialstar said:
I know they aren't perfect. I get that they make mistakes, too. I know my mom's trying, even though she hits a bump in the road sometimes...but my dad. He's never apologized to me. Never sat down with me for a genuine heart to heart. All I seem to get from him nowadays is disappointment. Frustration, misunderstandings. We watch some great movies together whenever we can fit them in, but those moments always feel so short-lived to me. Brief moments of shining light before it winks out once more. :/
I honestly can already tell you that I'm going to be super happy to get away from the family and be surrounded by nature. No military worries for 3.5 months and minimal family contact. I like to imagine that it'll feel like an immense relief rolling off my shoulders. Saying goodbye to them in the airport will be awkward because I won't be shedding any tears for them (my mom was bawling her eyes out when I left for the military training).
Despite all of this dreary talk, I do still smile and laugh around my family...it just seems less common nowadays.
Heh, maybe.

I feel like he's proud, just like my father, he rarely apologizes. We never had a heart to heart talk because he's easily frustrated as well and English isn't really his first language either. He gets more annoyed because of that. He's getting a bit better, but still feels a bit . . irritated? Per say ? I'm unsure if that's the correct term since I only know how to say it in our native language.Lioness075 said:
On another note, that's really good to hear that you'll be super happy. Perhaps during that time apart, things would get a bit bettter with your family since being further away from family can help a lot when you need a break from each other. And since it's less common nowadays, everyone is on each other's toes because you guys have seen each other a lot during the summer unlike being at military camp and the likes.
you betcha!

No, I understand what you mean. My dad definitely grew up in the generation that was stubborn as mules about being anything but prideful and strong. He definitely gets irritated when he doesn't get his way or we don't 100% agree with him.crucialstar said:I feel like he's proud, just like my father, he rarely apologizes.

Maybe. I kinda hope it works out that way. Though, I think that relief and joy I felt when returning home was mostly because I had to spend the first 3 months of training with limited contact with my family beyond snail mail and, like, missed my first call with them because my phone died the drill sergeant blatantly refused to let me use my own phone. I couldn't get my mom on the line with someone else's phone and I didn't memorize anyone else's numbers...that really screwed with my head at the time. Eurgh, I hate thinking about basic training. That was a literal hellhole for me and nobody I wrote to understood what I was going through.

I honestly can't even imagine myself the struggle and hell you had to go through with basic training. Like. . you're pretty admirable to me, honestly, no matter how brutal it was, you got through it and thankfully, hopefully, don't have to go through that again. Oh geez.Lioness075 said:

Luckily, you only ever go through basic once in the military. I plan on going back to AIT (advanced individual training, basically job training) when I graduate from college so I have a different job in the military (one that's way less combat-oriented). But yeah, it sucked ass (excuse my language lol) and I certainly look forward to never, ever doing that again.crucialstar said:
