I dont really know much of my family so true I've head many things from them but my best friends family (who basically took care of me from 14-18) knew a lot of stuff about me that I told them

My dad doesn't know me. I don't know if it's because of me holding back and trying to act perfect around him or because he makes me or pushes me to act like something he wants. I once told him I met someone on a dating app and he gave me shit for it and basically made me regret revealing it in the first place. When we have fights I always realize he doesn know me at all and why would he?

  He once wanted to put something in my name and he made me sign an agreement he wrote because he thought I would take it away from him. I felt so insulted. I didn't want this thing, he wanted to give it to me. I think told him to not put this thing in my name since he obviously doesn't trust me. He insisted and I reluctantly signed the paper. I would never do such a thing to him but I guess that's the price I have to pay for being a stranger with him..

Specifically relating to my political views, as they are Republicans and I am a reactionary.

  Makes perfect sense to not want to talk about politics then.

Yeah. I mean there is a lot about me that I don’t tell anyone. They just don’t need to know. Would it change how they view me? probably...

Yea. Most people are developing their personalities and don’t even know that they are different to their parents until they are in their late teen or 20’s

The only reason why I hide my personality is because they're just so use to be being so "innocent" and a "good boy" but i'm really dark deep inside.

I hid my bisexuality from my family for a long time, they still talk bad about people who aren't straight so I can't be open about talking how pretty girls are

I used to hide things from my parents more; now I've told them some of the things I did in the past that I didn't at the time.
