It shouldn't be to bad though, he is a step father and not even really with my mother anymore... shouldn't be to hard to cut him out of my life, he has just been around forever.

*sigh* I love my life...

At least my hangover will explain how drunk I was when I "fell down my stairs".

I would definitely talk to the police. He can't go around doing things like this without suffering any consequences.

No way, some people I know I cant come out to.... Not yet anyways....

Even if you don't live with him, you might still want to move for quality of life. Would you describe your town as accepting? If you were to walk down the street holding hands with your boyfriend, would people give you shit? There are plenty of places in this country where nearly everyone is accepting, and you might be much happier if you were able to be out to everyone. Hiding is hard, and emotionally draining. You'd be amazed at how good it feels to be out in a place where people just don't care.

You're 22, staying in a place where many people you know including your family won't accept you for who you are and where you can't come out without fear? Is there a reason you're staying there?

I stay here because I like being alone. Way out in the country/ mountain area is best for that. I do miss people tho....

And Im not 22, Im 25...

Dude. That's such a myth. Where you're living might have less people, but you're less alone because of that. Everyone knows you and your business. You really want to be alone? Move to New York. Not that I've been to New York, but I'm assuming it's a similar vibe to London?

LOL contradiction

Yeah it seems a lot easier to feel isolated in larger populations than it does smaller ones to be honest.

Not when I can go days without seeing another person. :-)

Move to a city for a bit. If you don't like it, move back. May as well do it when you're young.

Not really. You just feel it more when you see so many people and none of them care about you. At least in the middle of nowhere you have an excuse for feeling lonely.
