23 years old, engaged, and wanting my own life
I am 23 and recently got engaged. Let me tell you a little about myself. I have lived with my aunt, uncle, cousin, since the age of 8 when my mom died. I met my fiancee in high school and we’ve been together since. In my house I am like a real live cinderella and always have done what everyone else has wanted for so long I feel I can’t make a decision I want because of the judging and bashing I would recieve. I’ve lived the way my aunt and grandma has wanted me to. As I got older I did everything right while my cousin got into everything not so right.My aunt ould always say things about my relationship, when she did not have a single clue about it. she would say things like “your boyfriend is never going to marry you” Now I feel I have proven her wrong. My fiancee wants me to move in with him and I would like to. I want to start my own life. I am afraid to tell them, because they will retaliate and not help me with my wedding. I have lived my life by doing everything they wanted, now I feel I can’t do things I want because they will bash me. I’m so tired of having to do it all, I run all the errands, clean the whole house from top to bottom while everyone sits around not helping(mind you it’s all adults). I was really mad becasue I went out of town for my birthday( which is when I got engaged), well when I returned home I came back to a dirty kitchen, a list of things to do that could have been done, and an overall filthy house. I am really sick and tired living for them and not myself. please give me advice on how to tell them I am leaving.
Don’t worry for 1 second more about the mess (I am a neat freak but will allow a mess if I have a hangover so just realise you have a much better excuse for overlooking a mess than a hangover - your own sanity and life!) Noone has the right to lecture or bash you - that is enough - you SHOULD NOT put up with that anymore if you can help it. Don’t just marry him to get out of the house either - move in but you don’t have to marry. You could also move in with a friend or something? Clean or dirty house - so what!!!??? There is more to life and even if it bugs you, the way you have been treated should bug you more. Get help from other family members, friends, community help groups, school/uni contacts, funadvice contacts!!! Good luck!
