Resolved Question: My Dad thinks I’m a nobody?

23/02/12

My dad always bugs me to go out (which I do, ALL THE TIME, but for some reason my Dad thinks I’m some antisocial kid who has no friends, which isn’t true because I have lots of friends and I’m also always going to parties and stuff) and when I get home and relax after going out with friends (as in making myself some tea, watching my favorite tv show, etc) he complains that I never help around the house or do anything. I mean, how can I help around the house if he just pushed me outside and told me to get a life!?

It’s frustrating because I know my Dad has moodswings, and there is nothing I can do about it. He says that I never do anything to help, but I don’t even want to live with my parents anymore. I have a job and my friends say I can live with them (in their flat) if I have enough cash to stay with them, which I do. I’m prepared to give up little luxuries for more freedom but everytime my Dad complains and I ask him if I can move out he just says no.

He does things like this all the time. Like once it was a weekend, early afternoon and I was still in bed (late night) and he was complaining about how when he was my age he was going on holiday with friends on his own and how pathetic I am. I asked him if I could go on holiday with friends and I straight up says no! I don’t know why. It’s not like we have money problems.

Helppppp?
