I'm moving in with my sister and her husband in a nearby town. But I'd honestly rather live anywhere than with this asshole. And he wonders why I hate him.

It will be better, anon. Anger is pretty infectious.

But! interesting fact, before you leave.

Your dad is in a deep amount of pain. It's not your job to fix it, but 10 -20 years from now he's sure as shit going to regret treating you like shit. I almost feel bad for him, but at the end of the day, when the booze wears off, he's only left with hellish realizations and the knowledge that he's stuck with himself with no one to blame.

Fair warning, He's probably going to get a bit worse in the next week. He's sad that you're leaving--- oh yeah. believe it. He's sad that he couldn't of been a better father and forged a better relationship with you. And the guilt will fucking KILL him inside. My dad treated me the same way growing up-- I moved out early. On the last day we saw each other and I was preparing to seal him out of my life forever... He grabbed me as I said a cold goodbye and walked out the door. And started bawling ( Never seen my dad cry, so the tears were shocking )

>"Please. Don't go, son."
>"This is all my fault."
>"I've failed you as a father, I'm sorry I was never able to give you the love you needed"
>"I'm sorry I was never there when you needed me."

I still left, but that went a long way. About a decade later something bloomed from those ashes. I hope you find something similar to be true in your future.


Go. Be free, my man. He needs to own his shit, and until that happens, he's not a man worth investing in.

I love my family but have been living for a year away from them.

Being on your own is awesome, I dont know if you will feel the same since youre moving in with people.

Only thing i can say is: be ORGANISED, with time, your space and money.

Being able to buy the soap you want to wash your own clothes is something you dont appreciate until you dont have the money for it.

Good luck beautiful anon

Funny thing is, he's actually been hinting that he wants me to stay.
>You won't be able to do ... on your own
>Your job doesn't pay enough for you to survive

Thanks for the words of encouragement though, I'm kind of nervous about leaving but I know being away from this negative environment will be good for my mental health.

My dad is actually staring at me with an angry face as I walk through the house. He won't say anything to me in front of my mother (he's afraid of her) so all he can do is peek around the corner and look at me disapprovingly. It's actually pretty funny.
