I'll admit it

I'm a pathetic millennial who still lives with mom at the age of 21yrs. But I'm done with this playing it safe shit. It doesn't get me anywhere. I don't grow in an environment like that. Both of my parents keep following me when i leave the house. I had my own apartment for 2 months before my mom manipulated me once again into playing it safe. Sure i didn't have money for anything besides rent, bills, and food but I had a sense of pride knowing I had my own place. On top of all this I felt a certain hunger growing in me when i was living like this. I can't quite explain it but it disappeared when my mom moved in to "help me". I felt like something new was gonna happen. A new me was emerging and then I fell back into this safe life BS. There's nothing rewarding or exciting about taking it easy. I don't grow like this. I'm sorry mom but I'm packing my stuff and leaving next month. I know what proceeds after posting something like this so yeah i know....i deserve the ridicule. I'm a gutless millennial.

But I know something good will come from moving out. It's similar to a bird leaving the nest. It will grow stronger if it is to survive.

@RemovedUsername634280 that's the point. My parents already raised a lazy childish adult. I'm a softie but i know what happens when the going gets tough. Sometimes we have to create that type of environment when it doesn't present itself. I know old classmates who have matured more than me because they were kicked out @ 18. Unlike me they were forced to grow.
