Reasons Why You Should Move Out!

Moved this to chit chat, seems more appropriate there than F&G.

I've already moved out, so I guess I don't qualify to answer

"You've met that age and have a good job, where that's what's expected of you!"

 

All of them involve one person: my father, who is the living definition of the words "Jackass," "Asshole," and "Anger Management Issues."

 

1.) No more curfews = my mom just gets way too worried when I'm out with friends after 7:00 at night. #partying
2.) I can ease my parents financially since I wont be using their A/C, electricity, food, and water. That means they won't have to depend on me like I'm their wallet.
3.) I can bring Latino friends to my house without my traditional Asian parents freaking out. #bigots
4.) Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
5.) I won't hear my parents ramble to me about the news they watch where I don't even care about. Also, it's news from mainland China. Most likely it's BS since China inhibits freedom of the press.
6.) My parents will be out of my hair. Yeah yeah I love them but I feel like I go insane when they're around sometimes.
7.) I can learn how to be independent without my parents holding me back like I'm on a leash. #leashpolice
8.) Like what you said, I can being gay friends without my parents bad judgment.
9.) I could plan my upcoming future by myself without allowing it to be 90% my parents' decisions.
10.) I can actually be myself.

 

1) I can feel more independant
2) I don't have to deal with uncomfortable situations and get stressed about it.
3) I won't get teased on almost everyday by my sister's
4) It wont be so noisy and loud and I can do my art/music and writing in peace.
5) If I got into a relationship I wouldn't have to bring them back to my dysfunctional home.

(I do love my family but right now in time it's a nightmare really, just causes me too much stress)-------

6) I can eat what I want!! (my mum didn't want me to be a vegetarian because she thinks I'll get sick if I don't and we "need" meat she says, did it for quite a long time but gave in to mum.. I still pick the meat out of my dinner)
7) Again with eating... I can't be blamed for eating all the food and can't get called greedy..by my sisters.
I actually have an issue with food and they really don't help in all respects. :/
8) I can play my music out loud and sing and dance around whilst doing houswork in my pjs. HEHE
9) I wont be woke up in the morning by my sister's loud screetching voice or my sisters arguing.
10) I can be happy and feel comfortable and make a place my own and start living

 

1) My mother

2) I'll be able to live as myself full-time. No more hiding around with a binder in my backpack.

3) Freedom

4) Gender therapy. I'll never have access to it as long as I live under this roof

5) My mother. Bears repeating. She's...not overly fond of my gender.

6) Sisters. Much as I love them, they drive me fucking insane. It'll be nice to be able to focus for once.

7) I'll be able to live closer to town, off the family compound (you think I'm joking when I call it a compound- nine acres of forest, all locked up with a padlock each night, three residences)

8) My mother

9) My mother

10) My mother

 

These are the reasons I moved out years ago.

1) My mother

2) My mother

3) My mother

4) I can be with the person I love

5) I can drink alcohol

6) I can stay out late

7) Living near the bus line

8) Living near college

9) Living near the gay club

10) My mother

 

Eh... no more discreetly watching lgbt movies

 

hahahaha sooooo true!

1) Freedom/Independence/Responsibility
2) Less dishes
3) No need to hide a bunch of stuff
4) Don't have to worry about what im wearing, or not wearing.
5) Can have friends over late or stay out late without concern
6) Less stressful in a lot of areas

 

I have no reasons to move out. I live next door to where I work...
My parents are great.
The house is adapted to the disabilities of my boyfriend.
I have plenty of privacy.

Still we do talk about a future in another country, so that would be the soul reason to move out. But not anytime soon.

 

Lets see...

1) MY FATHER (he makes my depression and anxiety worse and he abuses me mentally and sometimes physically)
2) Being home makes my depression and anxiety really bad.
3) Last time I was home (I'm in a dorm right now, but I still live at home) after a long period of time I started having panic attacks and wanted to kill myself.
4) I can't be myself.
5) I don't have a room or a bed (they rented it out to someone)
6) I'm constantly made fun of everyone mostly my father.
7) I'm blamed for everything even if it's not my fault.
8) I'm forced to do things that I don't want to do. For example, my father forced me to say, "I'm a stupid, ugly dyke that doesn't know how to do shit." because apparently I messed something up again (see 7)
9) My father is constantly calling me names.
10) My father doesn't treat me like a human being.

Reasons why I haven't moved out:
1) My mom and dad wouldn't teach me how to drive (even though they taught my sister)
2) I have food there.
3) No one wants to hire me so I'm unemployed.
4) I still care about my mom, sister, and brother. I don't want to hurt them by leaving.
5) I don't know if I can survive on my own.
6) I'm afraid to leave.

Ultimately though, I'm probably going to be leaving very soon. My friend is probably gonna get me out of my house. I'm going with him for Christmas and summer, and we plan on moving to an apartment by my college. I have several friends that don't like my dad and they are there for me if he ever tries anything. I hope everything will turn out okay.

 

1) Being with the person I adore
2) Being with the person I love
3) Being with the person who completes me
4) True responsibility
5) The challenge of living independently
6) Freedom of choice
7) No more closet computer
8) The ability to have anyone I want over, for as long as I see fit.
9) Not having to worry about noise (Unless I live in an area that permits low noise)
10) And probably most important of all: I get to watch porn without the fear of anyone coming in/knocking on my door/seeing my porn (Hence why I have a closeted computer)

 

I chose to move when I did

due to really needing the job, it was 1984 & none in the Bay Area for my skill level so I tied LA

advantages

I was able to come out finally
higher earnings in the area
better places to meet people
more stuff to do

disadvantages
rent went from $75 to $250 (split hose with room mate)
had to pay for car insurance myself $1000/year


(funny about the curfew - I had one until I was 17 then my parents lifted it I could be out until 6:00 am they did not care they just had to know weird)

 

1) I hate London
2) I hate my sister (shes the favorite and she knows it...so she abuses her power)
3) I love Australia
4) I can have whoever I want round
5) Its my place
Thats abut it tbh...off the top of my head anyway.

 

1) My father is an alcoholic and it annoys me
2) Partly due to 1), my parents can be such a drag sometimes about the smallest things and they're really repetitive and sometimes just irreasonable
3) I don't want to live by my parent's rules or constantly feel them judging me (we're really different)
4) I want to have friends over and go out whenever I want without being judged or having to watch the noise or what I do or talk about with who
5) I think it will improve my bond with my parents, because I will not be forced to have them around all the time - I will see them when we both agree to. I imagine it will be quite the change, they will understand that I'm not a kid but a (fairly) responsible adult who can cope just fine.
6) My father smokes everywhere in the house and it smells; I can sometimes smell it in my bedroom... I'm trying to quit myself, thus making it harder for me.

I suppose these are the main reason as for now.

 

wait! you moved 10,500 miles (17,000 Km) to get away from your sister

man that is sibling rivalry

 

I'm probably rather younger than the general audience of this thread, but whatever. I've certainly wanted to move out many times and I have a plan to move out as soon as I have finished High School. Because:

1)Moving out will allow me to get a boyfriend-finally.
2)When I move out, I won't have to pretend I'm straight. Or Mormon. (I'm an atheist. My parents and family are Mormons.)
3)I won't have to go to church, seminary, or church activities.
4)I will be able to avoid going on a mission (Mormon thing. Look it up if you don't know what it is.)
5)Control over my schedule, even though I'll probably mess up at first. A lot.
6)Won't need to pick my friends with my parents opinions in mind.
7)I could finally start a polyphasic sleep program.
8)I would get full control over my diet.
9)Budget control- which means an upgrade in responsibility.
10)Privacy. Enough said.

 

Hun, I would just love to punch your father in the face. You mentioned a dorm - if you're at college, there should be someone who works there who can help you out in some way, a counselor or something. x
