I'm 34 year old. I was spoiled as a child never had chores. I told my sister brother and mom what to do. They cleaned my room did everything for me.
They did this because I was always home alone I think they felt sorry for me. Even though they always left me alone. ( my dad worked 2nd shift and weekends he didn't know I was left alone from age 6)
As a teen I was a snob thought I was better then everyone. But, had tons of friends. I was very pretty even though I didn't know I was. I was a Tom boy. Didn't care to date and hated attention.
When I was 18 I got with the guy everyone wanted. He turned out to be very abusive. Sexually, mentally and physical.
I was with him for 9 yrs on and off.
He is in prison now for slitting his girlfriends throat almost killed her.
Anyway that's a lil of my life it gets worse but,
I feel like a scared lost child. All alone even when I'm with friends. I put up a front so no one knows. I spend most weekends alone in my bedroom. All my bills are behind like always. They get shut off then I pay them. I depend on my dad for way to much. He is 70 and so scared to lose him. I will have no one then :-(

    I feel the exact same way sometimes. Just wonder where my life went and how exactly I got here. This job, this city, this apartment, none of this was something I saw coming.

    When I feel like this I just take a deep breath and realize that every day is a new day and I need to enjoy every one that I get!

    Get your own life. You sound like a spoiled rich kid first off and that is really annoying. Stop bothering your family and get your own life. It doesn’t even sound like you are trying to get your own life. I mean if you have a job you are truly blessed. If you do not have to burden your family I do not see why you feel the need to. You told us your dad is 70 so one day he will die and what will you do after that? You must learn to live on your own since you are not a little kid anymore.

      Well actually I went to collage and Love my job of helping special needs children and adults. I was behind on bills due to letting people stay at my house for free. Rack up my bills as they save their money to get on their feet but, it in turn made me behind.
      I depend on my dad for his wisdom,intelligence and his advice. I'm not the only one. My dad is on the phone all day long giving people advice and helping others. If he didn't he would be who he is. But, your right about one thing he won't be here forever and that does scare me. I hope im the first one to go in my family then i wont have to lose any of them. I know i will be okay if that happens.
      So, I'm glad you took time out of your ( I'm assuming) very busy schedule to tell me how you feel about me.
      Only god can judge sweetheart until u walk in someone shoe's you can click yes or no or move on :-)
      Your really not worth the battery life this is taking from my iPhone lol.

    I think many more people feel this way than would care to admit it. Some are more successful in life than others. Try not to feel too bad. You're still young and there's time to turn your life around!
