Search Results: living with parents

Brad & I started long-distance dating through an online app in Nov 2023. We met in person in Feb. I managed to move closer to his city because of school from March-June, so once I came, we began living together & he proposed to me in May. A school situation happened where I got dismissed, so my sister came to move me back home in June. My family didn't like him during his visit since he was focused on taking me back to his home & not caring about my mom needing me/my school situation. I decided to stay with family & Brad disliked that since he hoped I'd leave that day. He left & gave me a hard time about my decision since then. My mom said she planned a Sept party where I could move back in with him more honorably than if I had just left. Brad didn't want to do it, but I did. We waited until Sept & then I found out my mom lied. I fought with her, she apologized, & now booked the venue in Nov by showing me confirmation. She told his parents so they could see if she would keep her word. Brad distrusts her & said if I didn't leave my home by the end of the month, then he'd end the relationship. I told him if my mom started to do anything fishy before Nov, I'd leave, but it didn't make sense to end the relationship over this, especially since I planned to visit. He sent me a goodbye/breakup texts the past week & fighting with me about this party. I told him that if he meant what he said about ending things, then he needs to stop communicating with me unless he decides that he's willing to do the party for my sake in Nov. He said he didn't want to wait that long, but I don't know if he'll change his mind. I texted him a couple of texts since me saying "don't talk to me", but he hasn't responded. I saw him following another girl on social media too, reached out to her, but she didn't respond to me. Do you think he's taking time to think & will reply soon? Or do you think he'll leave me? Why did he still text me even though he claims he ended things a long time ago?

Brad & I started long-distance dating through an online app in Nov 2023. He met me in person in Feb. I managed to move closer to his city because of school from March-June, so once I came, we began living together & he proposed to me in May. I didn't share this info with my family since they're crazy. A school situation happened where I got dismissed, so my sister came to move me back home in June. She met him for the first time & didn't like him for different reasons. She said I had no choice but to come home since my mom had heart issues & needed me. Brad didn't want me to go, so I told him to meet my family & we all left the following day.

She hoped we'd break up by now since she didn't like him. I fought with her about it, she apologized, & now booked the venue in Nov by showing me confirmation. She even talked with his parents for the first time about this as well so they can see if she keep her word. Brad now feels distrust with her & said if I didn't leave my home by the end of the month, then he'd end the relationship even though he's not going to help me leave here truly. I told him if my mom started to do anything fishy before Nov, I'd leave, but it didn't make sense to end the relationship over something like this, especially since I planned to visit. He sent me a goodbye/breakup text last night and goodnight. I texted him a couple of texts, but he hasn't responded. Do you think he's taking time to think and will reply soon? Or do you think he's ghosting me? I don't want to lose him :(

For context, I moved out at 24 & owned a condo for 3 years. Moved back in with family fall 2022 & decided to go that route bc of the housing market & just wanting to save up. Plus I had a crappy neighbor that made me want to sell and ironically enough moved out shortly after, I still went ahead and sold because no guarantee a new neighbor would’ve been better. I have a bit of a nest egg from selling my old place but it’s locked away in a cd & trying to be smart. I feel like I should have some more shame/be more down with my life (how society would see it) but maybe I know I would’ve felt worse if I was still living with family & have NEVER lived on my own. Or am I lying to myself? Is living on your own then moving back with parents at 29 the same kind of shame vs living with them at 29 & having never lived on your own? Lastly, have a bachelor’s degree + own my car/only high debt is student loans ~9K, just naming positives 😶
