Dad has recently gotten himself a much younger girlfriend whom he has moved in last month. My bedroom and their bedroom are wall to wall. The fact that they fuck doesn’t make me uncomfortable - so happy for them, but they do it on max volume. No joke. Every night at 11 and in the morning at 6 on the clock. These walls are paper thin apparently.

    It’s crazy because I’m liberal as fuck, totally understand how cursed housing is but I still can’t take this as sarcasm.

    I’m fully living on my own despite a horrible public school system, no college education, etc. Hell, I moved to Los Angeles with nothing but a backpack and $800 and no high paying job experience.

    At some point you have to figure out your life and move on; sitting around and blaming everyone else for your problems won’t get you anything.

        Seriously. We don’t even know how old the poster is, just that their dad is 48.

        I was 20 when my dad was 48. I was in college and was only ‘home’ over the summers and winter break (when the dorms closed). My brother was 15. I don’t think it’d be reasonable to tell either of us to move out just because the adults in our lives were a tad indiscrete.

        That sounds funny, because I actually have a free house and a stable personality from a well funded education system, but I said the exact opposite. I know my privilege. Life’s tough and you gotta take all the advantage you can get. If you get a chance to get ahead, you’re stupid not to take it, but you’re even more stupid if you brag about it.

        You don’t fucking know me bro. I’m not privileged in the least, the most I’ve borrowed from my parents is $20 and I worked for minimum wage all throughout my 20s.

        Just because I’m not a deadbeat loser doesn’t mean I’m privileged.
