How old are you op?
This...Usually parents just want the best for you. But in any case, don't let anything keep you from making progress.How old are you? Considering the fact that you said you moved out at 18, I'd say you're old enough now that you should have manned up and started living your life for you and not your family. Don't be one of those people who gets so hung up on not fitting in with your family that you miss out on life and end up not accomplishing anything. Yea it does hurt, but instead of worrying about it, find a craft and perfect it to the point that you're the best at it. Eventually, everything else will come back around full circle.
Use that as motivation and prove them wrong.
if youre 19 there is a VERY good chance that you are just misreading the entire scenario. Unless your parents are straight up deadbeats, they just want what THEY THINK is best for you, even if you might not agree with it. That is where the disconnect is coming. That doesnt mean they think any less of you or care about you less than your brothers.
I felt the same way growing up. I was the middle of 3 brothers, and also had a baby sister. Both my brothers excelled in academics (both top 5 in their class, went to good colleges) while I was busy smokin buds and gettin into shenanigans with my friends. Obviously, I got the brunt of my parents wrath due to said shenanigans, and I always felt that my parents just didnt understand me and that they didnt care bout me as much as my siblings. As I grew up, I found out that it wasnt the case. My parents just had difficulty relating with me since my outlook on life wasnt really in line with theirs. FFWD some years, and now me and pops can talk about stuff straight up man to man, and we have a great relationship. I'd say we have a better relationship than any of my other siblings, and a lot of that has to do with the growing pains I experienced as a youngster. I now see where he was coming from, and he also realizes where I was coming from. What started as a battle of differences in beliefs has now become a mutual respect for those same differences.
feels bad man, people just saw it that way.Whats this mean? Like Seriously I'm lost help
Seriously :\
goodbye to you my trusted friend.. .. we've known eachother since we were nine or ten.. .. .
live for yourself bro.
live for yourself bro.
this. you dont need to prove anything to them. that wouldnt be living for yourself.
get away from negativity. just cause theyre youre family doesnt mean theyre the smartest people ever. do not waste time on people who's opinion shouldnt matter to you. even if theyre blood.
get the eff away from negativity. if youre too young to move out, then just take the negativity out of your mind. its such a waste of time.
No matter what I do, it seems like I can never please my parents. Don't know if anybody on NT feels the same, but really bummed out about this this. I'm like the outcast.

They don't acknowledge what I've accomplished, even after graduating HS. They didn't care. Didn't even attend the ceremony.mellowhigh, how do your folks make you feel like an outcast? what have they said and done?
I think this thread veered off on a tangent and I didn't figure what's going on with you . . .
