I'm planning to get a piercing, but I'm afraid my father might have a cow. That's my main problem.
Now, let me get in depth, and maybe a little personal.
I'm 19, male, still living with my father in an apartment. I'm having this problem because I know he'll act negatively towards it if I just got it without his permission. My grudge though, is that he's not really THAT father figure. All he does is provide me with shelter and some allowance every now and then (which I appreciate), but that's all. We barely speak or have conversations, and furthermore, he doesn't realize that he left me out in the world without any solutions to my problems, like for paying 18k$ a year for my art college.
Anyway, I just want to do this for myself, but why do I feel so burdened? why do I have to have his permission? he barely cares about what I do, how I dress, etc., so why should he care about a piercing?
This might seems silly to most of you, but I'm really conflicted about this.
Help...
