    hey everyone,

    thanks first for taking your time to read this, i appreciate it :slight_smile:

    i rather not say my real name, you never know who's reading this or who might read this later on. so you can call me mickey or give me a nickname yourself if you like :wink:
    sooo this is my first step to finally figuring out what i'm actually into and maybe with your help i might do.

    i'm 19 years old and i live in europe. i've been raised by a christian pentecostal (or pentecostal christian?), african single-mom (DEADLY COMBINATION = UBER CONSERVATIVE) together with two other siblings, an older brother and a younger sister. long story short, my childhood was rather unsettling, quite troublesome to be honest, but i didn't let it get me down. i believe in God myself and it helped me to become the person i am today.

    i've never been a "bad" child: in my "rebellious" phase i was merely moodier and bitchier but i didn't do anything forbidden. in comparison to other western children i am still a "good" child, but for my mom i recently started becoming bad. the first time i was drunk i was 18 (and it's even legal!), i never did any drugs and i'm still a virgin.

    the beginning of my real "rebellion" was when i was starting to get my earlobe stretched and i didn't even think of upsetting my mother. i thought i am a grown up after all, i can decide whether or not i wanna do some kind of alteration on my own. most people don't even notice i have a tunnel.

    anyways, she mistakes what ever i do for rebellion, because she thinks i'm still pubescent (she should know better). this of course pisses me off, because it's a little late for that and i've already proven to her that i'm mature, atleast mature enough to not do anything too stupid. now i'm kinda experimenting and catching up on everything i missed while being a "good girl", part of it is my sexuality.

    another long story, so if you guys wanna hear a little more, i'll tell. but i don't wanna bore you :wink:

    MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR (*hug*)

    Welcome to the site =)

    Living according to your own moral code is more important than living by that of your parent's. Its something I still struggle with myself.

    Welcome to EC, Candy.
    Parents have a hard time accepting their children growing up and becoming independent. No matter how old you get they'll still tell you wear a coat when it's cold. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Welcome to Empty Closets, if you ever need advice or just to talk you can talk to me if you want :slight_smile:.

    I'm sorry about your mom misunderstanding you, but that's natural, don't be too harsh on her. Now if she's way too much I guess you'll have to ignore her.

    yeahh a month ago we had a really big fight and since then we're not talking anymore, because she said some really hurtful things. i decided to do my own thing, i'm even getting a tattoo in 2 weeks :grin: but she'll probably think i'm doing it to upset her :dry:

    I'd love to get a tat. Of course, it all depends on my financial situation :dry:

    Just make sure its one you like. It's a rather permanent rebellion.
