Are you stuck in a house full of people who don't care about you?

Growing up and living with my tiger parents has never been easy. My mother was never there to calm me when I'd cry my eyes out. My father sometimes came to my room so that I stop crying after awhile into it. But he stopped doing that too. And he started calling me an emotional fool. Now that I've gotten so used to it, I don't even expect anything from them anymore.

Now, during the pandemic everyone has been locked up at home in isolation. It really is a tough time for all of us. And, I can't go to school anymore or see my friends. Talking on the phone isn’t nearly good enough and my mom won't even let me visit my friend.

Escaping this household and moving out of here is really the only thing I count on in my life anymore since I have nothing else to hold onto.

It is hard, especially in the country that I live in. And my best bet is to study abroad and I'm counting on them to pay for it, somewhat. And, behaving myself, so that they don’t turn their backs on me and I rot here for the rest of my life or take my life.

Sounds like you have sociopaths as parents... My parents where lacking in love also.. I hope you do maintain that discipline and do well in your studies..

But know this the long term effects of growing up in a loveless home will come back to bite you later if you get married and start a family without dealing with and expelling the demons that will haunt you, They act to sabotage your future relationships..

Breaking away physically is only the first step.. Breaking away mentally is the second..

@Adstar Yeah, hoping not to lose my marbles anytime soon. But sometimes, there's such a thin line in between which makes it quite difficult to not cross, but we humans have great adaptation skills :D But I don't want to adapt too much into it, which makes it so that I live here forever.

I am considering to live by myself in the future. Getting married or being in a close relationship with someone, maybe isn't my forte apparently 😅

@MysterySci Well i am single also.. So it is an option.. But in the real world it is still easier to live a single life as a male.. So it is a harder road to travel for a female..

For now it's easy for you to remain single.. I would continue being so.. But i would also get your mind fixed so that you have an option to pursue a family if you change your mind..

@Adstar Yes, it may be easier for a male than a female. But I'll take it with all its got, I guess. :)
