Okay so I’ve been with the guy for a year and 7 months. It is a long distance relationship and yes we met in person but he moved with his parents when he was in high school. I’m a senior in high school with strict parents. I want to see him and spend time with him but the only problem is my parents and the distance. Im about to be 19 soon and I’m not even allowed to hang out with my friends. I can only go to school and work. I am graduating in 4 months or so , and I want to move out but my parents keep telling me no. I've always disliked the area we live in due to it’s over population and weather. I’ve always wanted to live up north and my boyfriend lives up north, so it would work out for me. I obviously can't tell my parents I have a boyfriend. They tell me I can't go to college in a different state. The only option for me is to continue living with them. They don’t allow me to do anything. I can't watch T. V, talk on the phone, listen to music, go out with my friends, have people over or even go out in the backyard by myself. I can only go to school and work. And yes, I have talked to them many times about this and my freedom. But it’s really ridiculous. Every day I am becoming more and more depressed and I am isolated from the outside world. What should I do? The only options for me is to join the military just to move out the house, but that is not what I really want to do, but I’m given no choices.

As long as you choose to be supported by your parents, they'll feel entitled to limit your actions. If you feel ready to stand on your own two feet, there's nothing they can do to prevent that from happening. If you believe you can't support yourself, but want to be on your own without joining the military, check into other options like the Peace Corps or VISTA / Americorps or something like this: https://www.volunteerhq.org/blog/peace-corps-alternatives/
