That's great!
But I think you should still move out, your father has crossed a line imo and you shouldn't let him get away with that

Agreed, whenever possible.

I agree to a certain extent. It depends on the situation. My dad beat me for years when i was a child, but things worked out. I still live with him and he has kept his vow to never harm me for 7 years now, I think. I'm not saying you're wrong, just saying there are always the right options for the right times.

That's great, i'm glad things worked out for you

But listen to me when I say that you and your dad are an outlier (and i'm gonna put my cynical hat on for a sec and bet, dollars to donuts, that the only reason he isn't beating you now is because you're strong enough to fight back)

Lol, you made me hungry for donuts. You are probably right. I might not be mentally or physically stronger than him, but I'm far more morally stronger.

Dammit, now I want donuts too

yeah i do plan on it, been trying to figure out what job to get to make some funds to eventually save up to move.
and i wont forget what he did either, just now going to have to spend time figuring out where to go or wait till my boyfriend gets a place and i move over to him.

another thing is hes been feeling better after mostly recovering from his flu or what ever he caught and has been acting way better now, but i wont let that be the excuse for how he treated me and the other house members that day.

Good on ya!
I'd spend more time doing art here since you could very easily turn this into a full time job if you dedicated yourself to it

That said, I understand if you'd rather not do your hobby as your job, just keep it in mind as a potential path forward

I am sending all the hugs I can

Oh......I left a whole long speech and you already solved it... alright then. (turn to walk out and whisper to myself) "Mission Accomplished, heaven here i come!"
But in all seriousness, I'm glad things are better for now. I was really worried for ya. Keep it up bro!

What happened tor such thing happen. If you want you can dm

Good to hear things have calmed down. But.. You should consider moving out, or have that as an option. Because if it happens once, it can happen again. I pray that it wont, but... you just never know.

That sounds great and all kinds of good! I would highly recommend however that you consider saving up more money now into a private account Just in case some kind of disaster happens in the future and you need to get out fast. At least enough to cover rent for a couple years at best, if you're lucky you might be able to build up enough to straight up afford an all new house in an emergency. That much though requires CAREFUL planning to get to that in less than a decade however.

I wish you good luck.
