I live in a BORING GLOOMY SAD LONELY house!!!!?

Question

God why do parents have to be so boring. I feel like a teenager all of a sudden saying that but I am SO BORED at home. I can't move out b/c can't afford a dorm. Will get married (THANK GOD can't wait) next year. But until then I am bored out of my mind in this house. My parents have NO friends, they always talk bad about people and critize whoever they meet. My father is a very serious man and always has his head stuck in the accounting/balancing book or researching stuff online. My mother is moody and is sometimes angry and behaves like a child or is sometimes in good mood and reads the paper quietly or goes shopping. My sis is a mix of both!! I have no friends so i end up stayin at home over the weekends...god how do i get out of this??? Does anyone know how I feel??

Answer 1

You only have a year left. Be thankful your parents are letting you live there. Paint your bedroom orange. That'll cheer you up. Not sure why YOU don't have any friends. Get out and do some volunteer work. Maybe you will meet someone new and can bring them over to see your orange bedroom. Be part of the solution, not part of the problem.

Answer 2

Hello! how are you? I read your question and I'm not sure what your going through because I never had that trouble never grew up with my mom and dad but I'm cool, turned out pretty good. You say your bored at home. What about your friends? don't you hang out with them? If you don't have any friends, I suggest that whatever your interested in you should spend more time doing whatever that is and if your not sure of them chill and think about what you would like to try. The other thing I can suggest to you is to ask for your parents attention on this. Have you ever tired letting them know how your feeling? If not give that a shot, you never know it could change things for all the better because people can't read your mind, even though they are your parents they need to hear how you feel. So try what you will and I wish you all the best and hey good luck. Cheers!!!!

Answer 3

There's no excuse to be bored. Sad, yes. Angry, yes. Depressed, yes. Crazy, yes. But there's no excuse for boredom.

If you feel bored, it's your own fault. Don't blame your parents.

Try joining a club, getting a hobby, doing charity work, any activity that you may like and where you can make new friends.
There are millions of things to do, alone or in company. You just have to look for them and not stay locked in the house.
Finding out something you like is easier than what it seems.

Answer 4

I feel similar to you. Except I'm quite younger then you. I have very few friends and my parents and brother get on my nerve 24/7. So I've learnt to deal with it (somehow) with a hobby or two. It may not be the best thing to do, but I just play video games and go on the internet all day. Just find something fun to do. Or do more important things like study (or whatever older people do) or do work. I don't know exactly how to help you really.

Answer 5

You say you have no friends, yet you're getting married next year? Is this just to get out of the house? Is it some sort of arranged marriage? If not, doesn't your fiance ever take you out? As far as your parents and sister go, you can't change them - only how you choose to react to them. Enjoy what's good and realise what annoys you about them you can't change. (Good for you for not buying into their negativity.) You can change your life by looking outside yourself. If you can't get a job, start volunteering - making other people's lives better will rub off on you. If you're going to school, join a club with people who share similar interests to your own. Living at home is tough when you're no longer a child - but you can make it better for yourself by developing friendships of your own.

Answer 6

First of all you sound too young to marry, especially since you are so anxious to get into a boring marriage next year. Please understand that it's boring because you haven't matured, aren't interested in mature things, and you need to be educating yourself and joining your boring parents. Life IS boring unless you add to it like having an interest in sports, music, dancing, education, and lots of other things. You need to create an interest for yourself. Nobody wants a marriage partner who has not cultivated any interests or hobbies for themself. Sex gets boring after a short while, and then what will you do? be bored again and wanting to leave? You can't keep running away. Neither your parents nor your future partner will be there to entertain you. So fix yourself. Get some interests.

Answer 7

1. Get a head start planning your wedding.
2. Get a job
3. Join a club at the YMCA or some other association.
4. Join a gym etc
5. Have a baby! (Just kidding)

There are many ways to satisfy boredom. Your family maybe dull or emotional but that doesn't mean you have to be. Get out on your own and start accomplishing things you've always wanted to. And who knows, maybe you'll gain a friend or two.

Answer 8

You live in a boring gloomy sad lonely prison - your own brain. You have the key to escape. Read something. Learn something. Find ways to amuse yourself because you're the only person who can. Generally the better education you have the less chance you have of being bored. There's so much out there to think about.

Or if reading isn't your thing, take up an instrument or a sport, or all of the above. Its up to YOU!

Answer 9

I so understand how you feel!! Doesn't it seem amazing that they area actually family and you feel so different from them?? You just have to count the days until you get out - but until then, try to spend time at a bookstore like Barnes and Noble. You can sit, drink coffee and read magazines. Doesn't cost much and gets you out of the house! Good luck! It saved me!!

Answer 10

Boring people get bored. Be creative or find something to entertain yourself with such as a life. Maybe u have no friends because u r boring.....

You seem to young and immature to be getting married, just don't go having children out of bordom.
