Family: Question: Was I melodramatic or was my brother being rude?

Question: Was I melodramatic or was my brother being rude?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 01:32 PM PDT

My forehead has tiny little bumps on it, and my brother pops up out of nowhere and touches it with his dirty fingers. I wash my forehead immediately after because, well, that's disgusting. He tells my other siblings, "Ew, that felt gross. I know it has bumps, but it shouldn't feel like that. It feels...different." It's obvious he means different in a bad way. After I finish washing my face, he starts in on me again. "You better wash your face with soap too." And my little sister is just straight on agreeing with him. Angry, and frustrated, I call my dad and he settles the problem. But by the end, everyone's mad at me. Whaaaat? My brother says it wasn't a big deal, but spewing out hurtful problems that could tamper with someone's self esteem is pretty disgusting. My brother and little sister think I was being melodramatic, blowing things out of proportion. Did I handle the situation correctly, or was I melodramatic as they say? Hashtag confused...

Question: Is my brother weird?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 12:59 PM PDT

My little sister and my teen brother were getting groceries out of our house in the morning and this is what happened. My sister was wearing a black strap shirt and black tight shorts. He got groceries first as I held the door, waited for my sister and walked behind her and stared her the whole way. I know he was staring. No lie. I feel weird telling strangers but it's better than my parents knowing and thinking of him weirdly. Is he weird??

Question: Should I give up what I want to make my mother happy?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 12:46 PM PDT

I love my mother, growing up I thought I would give anything if it made her happy. I am older now, only 22, but I have dreams now. I think I might have to ignore my family's feelings in order to accomplish them. I want to join the peace corps, and I am about to turn in my application. My mom doesn't want me to go, she refuse to talk to me about it. I understand her feelings I am in college I do not see her often as is and with this I might possibly be going away for 2 years. I have 2 younger siblings, and my older sister just had a baby my mom has tried to use them to make me stay. I love my family, I thought I could do anything for them, but I don't want to give this up. My family struggled to raise me and my older sister, now there are 2 more (my younger siblings) who need our help. I guess my question is am I being selfish for wanting to do this, for doing this?

Question: What should I do? I feel depressed/useless! Lately I've been crying a lot?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 12:46 PM PDT

I'm a 16 year old guy and my mom is in a mental hospital right now for drinking and going crazy. She suffers from depression, anxiety, and possibly bipolar disorder. At times my mom is the best mom ever, and other times she's not, like when she drinks. We are currently staying at one of her friends house also where her bf was staying. She has an unhealthy relationship with her bf, which she doesn't seem to understand. I want to succeed in life like continue her education to get a better job and all that. So yeah now she is in a mental hospital and I'm here at her friends house we staying at. My dad lives in NY and I live in Fl, i don't know if I should move to him, he's not all like my mom, like nice, caring, and loving. He's more like strict, mean, and not very loving. My sister had moved to him a couple of months ago, but I don't want to do the same and betray my mom, it would hurt her. My mom absolutely hates my mom. I'm scared please someone give me advice, I want my mom to get better and succeed. I'm going crazy!

Question: Guardianship Change in South Carolina?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 12:12 PM PDT

How would I have to go about getting my guardianship changed in South Carolina. I am 17 and things are bad at home since my dad remarried a year ago. I'm isolated from absolutely everything but staring at my 4 bedroom walls. I had so much going on in my life and going for me and it has all been ripped away and my step mom is trying to make things even worse (calling the police making false accusations). My grandparents want me to live with them, but my dad refuses to let me leave. How could my guardianship be changed? Does my dad have to agree??

Question: Can somebody please help me?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 11:27 AM PDT

I m a 22 year old working student. My mother s 41 years old and she s very overweight. My brothers been in jail for 5 years now. My moms boyfriend is a crackhead. The rest of my family is perfectly stable. My older sister is having a baby. But my mom seems very depressed and stressed out all the time. I think it has to do with my brother being in jail or my little sister having done so many wrong things in our life indefinitely including her crackhead crazy boyfriend. She doesn t work she doesn t really do anything it s driving me crazy because I hate seeing her look so useless or without purpose. I want to find her a job or a hobby. She s so use to just staying home waiting for her bf to come back from the streets just smoking and drinking coffee...

Question: Am I doing the right thing!?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 11:12 AM PDT

So I decided to move in with my boyfriend as I've been having health issues and can no longer afford my rent etc. Also we've been together and going long distance for quite some time now. My mom supports me and is happy for me/us, but my dad is not. My dad has always tried to be the controlling father about everything I do. And I mean everything, if it's not his decision he's mad about it. I got a new and better job he got mad, I upgraded vehicles he got mad, I date anyone and he hates them before he even meets them. It's absolutely everything... it's been a week since I've moved in with my boyfriend and the only time he has talked to me was today for about 10 mins. My mom and friends keep telling me that my dad can't always have his way, and that I am an adult capable of making my own decisions, and dad will get over it so I should stop worrying about if he's mad or not or won't talk to me etc. Are they right? Should I just let him do as he pleases ans hope he comes around one day? Do i continue living my life doing whatever makes me happy even though he wont talk to me and ia mad at the situation? I am 22 years old and I've been out on my own for 5 years now but he's always tried being controlling.

Question: How to cut out toxic family?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 10:55 AM PDT

24... Moving out of state in about 6 months... but in the meantime I am getting the hell away from my toxic family. I love them to death... but I strongly dislike them! They have ruined my life so much and i'm tired. I will be staying in my boss's studio apartment he's leasing out for a little bit of nothing. I have no friends, no love life or anything. This is my first attempt to get away and get my life started. I told my family (4 older siblings, and parents) that I will be moving out of state... but really I'm going to continue to work my job and save like crazy for the next 5-6 months and is moving to California for college and a job I probably will never meet any good friends... or have a fun filled life. I was robbed for those moments. Anyhow, i am letting go and cutting off contact... for some reason I feel like they will always have a hold on me. I have dealt with so much abuse and control it's pathetic.

Question: Is my little brother unhealthy because he does these things?!!?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 10:44 AM PDT

My little brother is 16 and I'm worried about him ruining his health!! He stays up late on school nights, he eats a lot of sugar and sweets! He doesn't floss, He rarely drinks water, and he sits on his butt most of the day and plays video games and doesn't go outside and exercise! He is lazy! And ever time I tell him to drink water or to go outside and play, he gets mad and says leave me alone! But I don't want to have a fat lazy bum brother! My parents think I should just let him do what he does and suffer the consequences! But I want my little brother to be healthy! What do i do?

Question: Convince my mom to let my housekeeper go?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 10:23 AM PDT

My housekeeper Hates me, she s always been hating me. she s a live-in by the way, she always gives me dirty looks, hides my stuff and everybody s belongings, tells my mom exaggerated stuff. And would cry or go crazy like a passive psych over something small. I think she s crazy. She hides my stuff that I paid a fortune for then when I would ask her where it is, she would act stupid and like she s never seen it. I don t like her. My dad and I hate her. My other siblings kind of want her to go to. She s been working for my grandma for 7 years then she moved to us. 2 weeks ago it was the 17th year she was with us. How can I make my mom let he housekeeper go. Honestly my mom hates her too but the reason she isn t letting her go is because she thinks it s hard to find another housekeeper and she needs somebody she can trust. But I m homeschooled and I see everything that going on in the house so she has nothing to worry about. And the second thing is. My big sister moved out and my housekeeper took that room, she s refusing to Move out. So because of her my brother and I have to share a room. So everything would be better if she leaves. She keeps giving my mom false accusations about me. She exaggerates over everything. I want her to go and so does everybody else. But my mom is worried about not finding someone else. So here s the answers I want, How can I convince my mom that the housekeeper has to go. how can I personally tell her to leave for good. Or how can i make her Leave

Question: My mom hates my style?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 10:11 AM PDT

I'm going to first start off with my age. I'm 13 Now yes, I know i am a bit young for yahoo answers but, that's not the point. I'm just here to ask a question and get some advice. I'm a girl and I'm really into boy stuff. Like halo, Call of duty, the walking dead. And my mom hates that about me. She always want me to wear pink and glitter and girly girl stuff. For years on end i did and never said anything about how i didn't like it. I didn't want to hurt her feelings i wanted her to be proud. But, as i got older I've been hating the girly girl style more and more. I'm online school so its not like I'm trying to be everyone else. This is me. I really love the walking dead. So my mom asks me what i want for Christmas and i said i would love a walking dead shirt or some cool hats. And every time i say that she says no your a girl. I reply with it doesn't matter. She told me if i dressed like that and went to school then i would get picked on. She says she wishes i wasn't like this that she had a girl that liked pink and hello kitty. I always have been a daddy's girl and always spends time with my dad playing call of duty. She hates that i like that stuff. She wants me to be a different person. I wish i was the person she wants me to be but, that's not me. I like to wear the walking dead shirts and jeans and hats. She always wants me to wear glitter dresses and bows and earings and skirts. How can i make her see this is me and make her stop trying to change me.

Question: I do not want to talk to my family anymore. Am I wrong?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 10:00 AM PDT

I'm 24 years old. I left my home country when I was 13. all my family is still back there. I have gone through hell and back here trying to survive and make a life for myself.I have been homeless, have been battered, raped, everything with no shoulder to cry on but my own. The whole time I have been here, my mother is the only person who's ever tried anything to help me but she has always held it over my head, and made me feel awful , saying how i have no pity for her, and how we all make her unhappy. I have carried that on my shoulders, and every time i would talk to her, she would hang up on me and make me feel like a horrible person. I have had many panic attacks after our conversations. I feel and have always felt like i owe her money. my dad brothers and sister, never really even checked on me. Now that I am finally okay ( meaning have a stable job, and a stable place to say) the guilt continues, My mother hangs up on me every time I speak with her , calls me ungrateful, and asks me to add every amount of money she's ever sent me. I'm still hurting. All i get from her is " you are already in a good situation". I have never felt the love from my family, I have begged for it, but have felt rejected. I was hoping it'd change once I made myself stable. But, I am still " an ungrateful child " So many years without love, just disappointments, and sadness.I have always felt alone with a debt towards my own mother. am I wrong for wanting quit? I am starting to resent them.

Question: Feel guilty with either going to college reunion or staying home to support girlfriend in her new job?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 09:32 AM PDT

I feel indecisive by moving towards either decision. Either I go to a college reunion (where none of my friends will call me back) and get to see my parents for the first time in 6 months or I stay home and support my girlfriend who just started a new job and who's birthday happens to be that week. Why can't I make this decision? Have I become incapable?

Question: How would I go about getting custody of my sister from my grandmother?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 08:52 AM PDT

My little sister (half sister) who is now a year & a 1 month was taking away by cps when she was born due to my mom on drugs & etc. I was only 17(2 week from being 18) at the time so my grandmother had to get custody. But my question is now that I am now 19 I have been working since I was 16; Is how would I go about getting custody from my grandmother? I am trying to move out & get my own place but she won t let me take my sister unless I have custody of her. Also keep in mind I have been financially supporting my sister Since she was born. I buy the diapers, I buy her food & all the necessities, my grandma watches her while I work though. So how would I go about getting custody of my sister from my grandmother? Also I live in Texas

Question: Is it fair for my dad to increase my rent yet again?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 08:44 AM PDT

I have been renting a house from my father for the last 3 years. The rent started at $500, then $550, then $650 and at the moment it is $700. This $700 increase just happened in August. My grandparents live with my father in his house but they have lots of problems. My grandparents and me discussed moving in together and that way they help me and I help them. My father wants to increase our rent yet again since we will be living together. I personally do not think it is fair given the fact that I have ALWAYS paid on time, take care of the house, he knows I am putting myself through College and I'm already having a hard time as it is. My grandparents were looking to rent an apartment which will be more expensive for them as well. I just feel like we are all family I have always paid him on time and never complained about the previous increases and I just which he would be considerate of everyone's situation. What do you guys think? I want to do the right thing here. Thanks

Question: How do I get out of an abusive relationship?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 08:27 AM PDT

I was always told growing up that I should always respect women. I pride myself on doing just that, but my girlfriend is extremely abusive. She is constantly calling me degrading names by saying I am worthless and nobody likes me and other things along those lines. She also throws dishes at me and will even whip me with a belt while I am sleeping. One time for three days her and her borther tied me and gagged me with a pair of rolled up socks and stuffed me in a closet. I was fortunate enough that she gave me a little water or else i would have died. She has also threatened me a few times that if I tell anyone she is going to burn the house down with me still inside. She basically destroyed m car because I was late from work one night. She is constantly hitting me and kicking me knowing full well I can't hit back because of my belief it is wrong to hit a woman. One time she punched me so hard in the throat I honestly thought i was going to die For dinner, she will sometimes feed me cat and dog poop. There are so many more horrible things she has done to me, however it would be way too long to put on yahoo. My question is how do I get out of it? Should I report it to the authorities or would that make me less of a man?

Question: Are my parents just making excuses?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 08:24 AM PDT

In the beginning of august my boyfriend left to go back to his home state after staying with me and my parents for 2 1/2 months. I was told I was allowed to visit ( this deal was made with my therapist and my parents in the room) if I had finished both my summer courses, which I did. I received high A's, and my teachers have not called my parents with any problems regarding me not finishing my work on time ( I do online school). I put the money together for a roundtrip ticket and asked if I could go up. Now it seems like they're pulling excuses out of their asses. First they were with what money? I said I sold al of my textbooks that I had rounded up in the past years, and then some change I had been saving up. They proceeded to tell me that the change was THEIR money ( it was the change from money they have given me to spend), so I offered their change back and they declined. Now their saying I cant go up because you have school work to do, and I said I have plenty of time to do it while my boyfriend is at work, plus I managed to do my work when he was here in the summer and he actually helped me out with it a lot. Now i'm just waiting for the next excuse. Im 18 should I just go up for the two weeks? Are they being unreasonable, or am I just being a teenager and not understanding them?

Question: Moving out of an overprotective household?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 08:22 AM PDT

I m 18 years old and currently a college student. I stay on campus but I plan to switch to completing my coursework online from the same University because I plan to move away from home. And by home I mean this state, meaning hours away. Basically from Pennsylvania to Lousianna. Big move. Everything is basically set already. I ve tried talking to my mom about it but she s just not having any of it. She tells me how I should stay at home, how she s done so much for me to get my education (even though I ll still be going to school...), and basically guilt-tripping me into staying but I have the intention of moving regardless. So, how do I tell her in a way that will make it known that I m leaving? Because I really appreciate all she s done but I want to get out. Help please!

Question: Is it okay to be mad at my parents?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 07:16 AM PDT

My parents seem to be somehow antisocial. They seem to think anyone is against them or envy them because they have academic studies and excelled in their studies. My father has no friends and so does my mother. They grew me and my brother in the same way. Now I am mad because it's not like that. They are a bunch of hateful people. Instead of joking around with people and appreciating them, they think they are superior to them and that they have special rights compared to them. I only noticed this recently and I am mad because it messed up 25 years of my life. Now if I could go back and change the way I thought of things I would live a much happier life with much more friends and much more experiences. How can I let go of this anger and should I avoid my parents? I don't know what to do.

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 06:40 AM PDT

I found a place even put a deposit down and I wrote my dad a letter breaking the news to him because he s a pretty impatient guy. He texted me after I left it on his chair and said "nice ******* breakfast you left me, we will talk when you get home". I asked him I he was mad and he just sent me the same text message again. The letter was all about how much I love him and that me moving wasn t about rebellion but about trying to be in a better spot with my life. And he seems pissed?? How do I face him later tonight and get him to actually let me leave 😂

Question: How can I move in with my boyfriend and his grandma?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 05:12 AM PDT

His grandma said she would have to talk to my mom to see if they could work something out legally to get me to be able to move in with them. I love my mom and I love my step dad but I can't do it anymore. I'm depressed, stressed, and self harming. When I'm with him I have no desire to hurt myself or die. He makes me happy and actually keeps me happy. Don't be like "you're not in love you're too young for love" or anything like that. I didn't say I was in love, I don't know yet. Anyways, I'm 15 years old and in the state of Indiana. Since I met him I haven't been suicidal. Me and my mom fight a lot which leads to her yelling and throwing things and hitting things. She has never hit me in an abusive manor, nor has my step dad. She shakes when she gets mad and she gets red and explodes. She flips me off and cusses at me and says things like "if I'm such or horrible person or if it's so bad here then find someone who can support you!" Or "do you want to leave?!" I come back with yes and she says "find someone who can support you and let me know!" Is there any way I can legally move in with him until I'm 18. I plan to get a job a soon as I turn 16, January 16th. And when I get a job I will put everything I make back into savings except for a small amount to pay for rent and some clothes every now and then. I can't stay anymore. My real dad is in prison and my grandparents can't support me. I would move in with family but none of them would be helpful. Please help me. Apparently all my mom has to do is sign some documents saying I can live with them. Now the trick is getting her to sign them

Question: How would you deal with a nosy former mother-in-law?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 04:17 AM PDT

My husband passed away earlier this year (drunk driver). We were married for 14 years, and we have 3 kids together. Shortly after my husband died, I sold everything and I moved back to New Hampshire (where my family is from). Shortly after moving back home, my former mother-in-law started sticking her nose into every part of my life. She's asked my kids if I'm having sex with anyone or if I'm dating anyone. She's asked my mom and dad if I'm drinking, doing drugs, or participating in illegal activity. Where is all of this coming from? She's known me for 14 years, and she knows how I feel about all of these things. My mom said that my former mother-in-law may be trying to dig up dirt on me to take my kids away from me. My former mother-in-law was really angry that she didn't get half of my husband's estate. I don't know, how to deal with her anymore. She's constantly wanting to know about my personal life. I'm about to cut all contact with her, if she doesn't stop.

Question: The boy our next door, is molesting by his brother. Should I do something?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 04:08 AM PDT

I can see his room in my window. He's bout 13. His brother always traps him a corner and beats and molests him. I've seen him twice forces to kiss, or tries to take off his clothes. I told the boy to tell parents or teachers. But he snapped at me saying none of your business. He is the stepson. Perhaps he's afraid that his family send him back. Should I stay silent? I hate hearing his cries and begs, but he don't want any help.

In high school I wasn't allowed to date. My parents made it clear that if they caught me having any non-platonic relationships with girls, I'd be in big trouble. Whenever I would slip academically or looked like I was distracted or having social trouble, my parents would say things like "quit daydreaming about girls" or "who's your girlfriend? We know she exists. Is it ________?" Needless to say this made me a bit paranoid and nervous about interacting with girls. Two years after graduating, I have plenty of female friends, but I've never been on a proper date, nor have I ever gone further than hugging a girl. My parents are now mad at me for having dating trouble and NOT pursuing girls in a romantic manner. I know that I'm an adult now and that I can't blame them forever, but I don't think I'd be in this position if they hadn't instilled this paranoia in me as a kid. Why exactly are they mad at me for not dating? Also, if it matters at all. I no longer live at home. I'm in college

Question: I'm not sure if I should tell them. Idk what to do. Driving me crazy. (Sorry for the grammar, wasn't enough characters). PLEASE READ?

My sister&I have been best friends with my two best friends(they're siblings)since I was about11(We're18and19now).They've been my2ndfamily and k call their mom"mom"and their dad"dad"&all that.They were there when my dad got sick&died when I was13&when my grandfather got sick&died when I was17.Anyways,a few weeks ago,my friends' dad got diagnosed with liver&lungcancer,&it's stage 4.I was in the room when the doctor came in&said he had about a year to live.He started his treatments.Any ways,the other day, their dad wouldn't stop throwingup&coughingup blood&everything so he was put back in the hospital.He was told that the cancer is spreading really fast&he has a few weeks to a month to live now.My friends&their other siblings don't know that.My sister&I went up to see him,&their dad's brother told us.My thing is,his kids think they have at least a year with him left.They don't know the new news yet.He wants to tell them on his own,which is understandable.But his kids&wife are already taking it really hard&doesn't want to devastate them even more.But,since his kids think they have a year yet,&when he goes in a month,it'll almost be sudden.You know?Plus,I don't want my friends to know I found out about their dad&then them hate me for not saying anything.(I don't feel it's my place to tell them unless their dad came to me&told me to tell them).So idk if I should tell them or not?I want them to spend as much time as they can with him before he goes.Also,kids and wife suicidal now.

Question: Is it wrong of me to do this?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 12:42 AM PDT

I left my old job because I wasn't getting any hours. So I told my dad whom is a truck driver if I could go work with him. He said he'd pay me to help him with check ins, opening the truck doors, etc. So I agreed. Just today they both spoke to me and said that it seems like I just gave up on my education because truck driving will take a lot of my time. And its not true. I want to further my education and be a paramedic for the fire dept. Now I have a phone interview with a beverage company and it will help me pay house rent, car bills and both health and car insurance. It will also give me the chance to come home and go to school. If i get the job with the beverage company, i will be taking it since i will have more time to do what i need to reach my dreams. But then I'm feeling like I'm deceiving him because i told him i wanted to learn about the business. So am i deceiving him if i were to just drop everything and told him i found a job that will allow me the time i need to further my education?

Question: Should I move out?

Posted: 30 Sep 2015 12:27 AM PDT

Well let me start off by saying I m 20 years old. I go to college pay for my insurance, phone bill, and clothing expenses, internet anx zomegimes food. I baought my car. I live under my mom s house but I can t stand it anymore. My curfew is 2 in the morning but even so I still have to deal with my mom telling me I have to come home earlier. One night I was going out and she told me I couldn t go visit my friends from another city (I ve done it several times b4) or she d kick me out of the house she said I could I only hang with them if they came to me she only did this cause she got pissed at me. It s 12 in the night I m playing my ps4 and she yells at me to go to sleep. I can t do anything on Sat cause of religion so I have to lie an out it if I wanna go out. She forces me to go to church. She has really bad mood swings and since I m the oldest she takes it out on me. I wanted to go to Mexico for vacation she said she d kick me out if I went. I feel like I can t do **** in the house or she ll kick me out. I m afraid to tell her where I m going most of the time because she might say no and worst of all she says I have freedom but I feel trapped inside her house. I can t even tell her I want to go to a party or a club because I m pretty sure she won t let me. it s not like I have a choice if I don t do it she will eighter break whatever i have on me or she WILL kick me out. She s capable of doing it she s done it brfore. Should I just move out ? am I exaggerating

Question: How do I tell my parents?

Posted: 29 Sep 2015 11:54 PM PDT

How do I tell my mom I'm addicted to cigarettes. I've been smoking since I was 13. Today is my 15th birthday. I can afford to buy my own cigarettes. My mom started smoking at the same age. I feel horrible not telling them. My dad isn't in the picture so I don't worry about what he thinks. But I want to tell my mom. How do I?

Question: Should I leave my parent's house ? I'm 18?

Posted: 29 Sep 2015 11:27 PM PDT

So lately me and my parents have been arguing a lot and my dad has told me several times that if I wanted to leave to leave and that he's tired of me and my mom accuses me of hating her and says she doesn't want to live with such a hateful person so I bought a plane ticket to florida cuz my grandmother lives there and said I can stay with her instead so I'm supposed to leave tomorrow And idk if I'm wrong in doing this, I feel like me and my family need distance from each other for a while cuz I can tell my family doesn't really like me right now, my dad says I need to get out there in the real world and I feel the only way to do this is by leaving it'll make me more independent but idk, any suggestions? I can always just not go to the airport

Question: My friend has a controlling mom and I feel bad for her?

Posted: 29 Sep 2015 11:19 PM PDT

My friend V has an annoyingly controlling mom, and I feel terrible for her. She's 16, yet she isn't allowed to go anywhere, other than school, alone without a parent. Even if her friends are with her, say, at the mall, or even a movie theater, she has to have a parent chaperone, or else she isn't allowed to go. Personally, I find it ridiculous. When she was at my house, she had to call her mom practically every hour. Her parents are divorced, and both of them are forcing her to choose only one for custody (not allowing her to choose), and this pisses me off. Her mom is a freaking helicopter mom who can't let her be a normal teenager. This negatively affects V too, because she still sometimes acts like a child because of this because her mom, or one of my parents, is always with her.

Question: Is my roommate snooping? Am I being too suspicious?

Posted: 29 Sep 2015 11:07 PM PDT

Okay, so I suspect she's looking through my stuff.. I don't think she's stealing but it's still uncomfortable. Are these signs that she is? Or am I being crazy? And what should I do about it? - she paid the extra money to the landlord to get a bedroom lock (I didn't) and she keeps her door locked at all times - I left my car at a friends house once, but was at home napping in my room. (Since my car wasn't in the driveway I think she assumed I was not home) She walked in my room without knocking or anything while I was in there, and when I asked why she asked if she could use my printer but then never printed anything - she will say things about clothes I haven't worn yet since living with her and when I ask she says she saw a picture of me wearing it on social media? - sometimes when I walk in my room I just get the feeling that something is off about it - she asked to borrow my curling iron one day, I said sure and she went right to the exact drawer it was in (also I haven't curled my hair since I've lived with her) These are things that make me slightly suspicious enough to suspect it, but they're not any concrete evidence at all. Anyone have any experience with a snooping roommate and recognize these as signs?

Question: I miss my mom?

Question: Someone help?

Posted: 29 Sep 2015 09:53 PM PDT

Okay. Guy I'm really worried about my mom. My parents were arguing a few hours ago. Fortunately, they stopped. Around a half hour later, my father comes into my room and tells me that they're going to the gym. Something seemed off about that since he said that at 11 and why would they be going out somewhere together right after fighting. But now it's 12:50 and I still haven't seen or heard from them. I'm really worried. My mom won't answer her phone, it goes straight to voicemail and my dad's phone is off so no luck there. I also looked at the gym hours of operation to see if they were closed or not and they actually closed at 12.. So what could have happened? I'm really worried and I want to cry because I need my mom and I can't imagine anything happening to her. I think I haven't lost it yet because I don't want to worry my little brother.. Someone help.. Or at least comfort me.. :/

Question: Am I in the wrong?

Posted: 29 Sep 2015 09:34 PM PDT

I am a junior in highschool and I'm in a junior-senior pre-college class. We are all 16-18. I am in the criminal justice program, and for the next two days, we will be going on a kind of "field trip" to do a simulation of a school shooting, to help us understand how to handle those situations. We were told we could bring someone, so now my 14 year old brother wants to go with me. He keeps crying to my parents about it, and now they are making me feel guilty for not wanting to take him. They're telling me how bad of a person im being. Hes a freshman, but I don't feel that my little brother should be going on my pre-college field trips with me. It's my class, my experience. He would have the opportunity to do this himself if he were older and in this program. I don't know if I sound selfish. It's hard to explain. I just don't want him to go, and I don't want to be the bad guy

Question: Why is My brother such an asshole to me.?

Posted: 29 Sep 2015 09:05 PM PDT

He is 33 and I'm 21. He has never acknowledged me. Ever since I could remember he's always rejected me. As a kid he never played sports with me, never took me to the zoo, to eat, or do anything with me. I have never gotten any kind of advice from him, whenever I needed it. I have really bad anxiety, and whenever I get panic attacks, he tells me to stop being a little *****. He never gives me any good advice like " I believe in you bro" or " I know you'll get trough this." Words like that would really be uplifting to me. I work at the same place with him, he hardly ever says anything to me there either. My coworkers always say why do you and your brother not acknowledge each other. Only If they knew I'm tired of getting rejected so I reject his butch *** back. I don't understand why he doesn't talk to me. He only calls me when he needs help doing something at his house. He never calls me for anything else.

Question: What is going on with my family?

Posted: 29 Sep 2015 08:57 PM PDT

I don't know where to start. But I feel as though my family is falling a part. I feel as though my mom haas being forcing us to be this perfect family that we are not and it's stressing everyone out. I didn't even know my brother was stressed out. I feel as though my parents did not do a good job in raising us. Don't get me wrong they have always provided for us and made sure that we were always taking care of. but i feel as though they never want to address the negative things that go on. Anytime I feel a certain way it is brushed under the rug or I get a pat on the back a some a little love and then that's it. Sometimes I even feel judged because certain times when I do talk to my mom she makes me feel like it something wrong with me feeling a certain way. I feel as though no one knows how to express their feelings and my parents never taught my brother and I how. Everything is swept under the rug and looked over until the problem blows up in our face. I feel as though no one is honest with each other or is too honest to the extent to where someone is hurt. I could talk about how my mom can be very verbally abusive all day but it would take too long. I really feel as though my family is in bad shape and it's stressing me out. I don't know how to force my opinion, I can't express my own feelings, and I feel like I don't understand who I am. I feel like I so much wisdom and knowledge but I still feel immature and don't know how to apply it to life. There is so much more.....

Question: Can you please help me with my aunt?

Posted: 29 Sep 2015 08:53 PM PDT

I just hate her so much because she gets offended about my business. Especially when she visits. She just annoys me like heck. She criticizes on how much I eat, what I watch, on my lack of makeup. She only eats like a leaf of spinach a day and one pack of peanut m and ms and also an ice cream bar while I eat what's required for me to eat at my fitness level and weight. She loves watching crime and drug shows all of the time. She is makeup obsessed and buys thousands of dollars a week on it and also thousands of dollars on purses. I just don't like it when she gets into my business and yet everyone else doesn't mind what I watch or do or anything. I also just heard that she wants to get into a fight with my neighbor when she gets here. But yet my parents still want her here. Oh yeah she's 57.
