My dad doesn't let me go outside by myself even though I'm in highschool?

Anonymous

Hi, I am 15 years old, turning 16 later this year. I'm starting highschool in a few months.

My dad has always been strict as far as I can remember. I don't have a phone (I'm borrowing my mom's), I am not allowed to go anywhere by myself, not even with my sister. I am not even allowed to go for a short walk around the house or to the food store. I have to go with either him or my mom, but never with a sibling or by myself. I'm not allowed to wear makeup, not even a little blush or lipgloss, or foundation to cover up something. Although I don't really want to wear makeup other for when I look like a corpse. (Like dark eyebags for example or nude lips)

I'm homeschooled.

I'm not allowed to have a boyfriend, go on a date or even have a male friend. (Not that any guys like me or find me pretty anyways lmao)

I'm never allowed to tell people anything about my family or myself, nothing personal which has made me very socially anxious. I literally don't talk to anyone because I don't know what to say or what I can and cannot tell them.

If I have friends I'm not allowed to go to their house, even with my dad with me, and they are not allowed to go to my house.

I am not allowed to hang out with anyone other than my siblings and family.

I literally have no friends. My dad the other day told me to be more social and make friends with the girls in my choir that I sing in.

Like really? You don't let me go outside, you don't let me have a phone (even if I was willing to pay for it myself), you don't let me go to anyone's house or anyone to mine, you don't let me tell people anything about me so how the heck am I going to make friends? Other girls in my age doesn't want our parents to have contact. They want to have contact with me. They want to hangout, talk, chat, but I can't do any of that.

Like how the heck does he expect me to have friends? He also complains about me playing too much video games.

Like what else am I supposed to do when I'm inside all day long?
