My Dad is horrendous. He is aggressive, controlling and emotionally abusive. He has been so over protective of me that I struggle so much in my adult life. I've lost friendships because of it, as there were so many things I 'wasn't allowed' to go to with friends like music festivals, holidays, etc. I've never had a relationship as he has completely put me off them and men completely. He's been unemployed for years with my Mum and I financially supporting him, he is so controlling and emotionally abusive to her but she can't get rid of him as he'd be homeless, and he would make our lives a living hell - he'd make slanderous reports to our employers, post awful stuff on social media, contact all of our family and friends. I know this because he has already done some of those things in the past.
He's completely immature; there is something fundamentally wrong with him. I don't know what it is, but he cannot see he is ever in the wrong. He had an affair and somehow it was our fault?
I still live with my parents as my jobs in the past haven't paid enough for me to even afford to live in a house share. But, to be honest, I think deep down I haven't wanted to move out as I would feel like I'm abandoning my Mum and sister. But I finally have a good job that pays well, and I will be able to afford to move out in a few months.
I don't even know what I'm wanting to get out of this post; I just have to get it off my chest.
