My dad is completly taking over my life.
I am 18 years old, and I dont do anything.
I'm not allowed to have anything to do with my friends.
And im am to never see my boyfriend again. I love my boyfriend, and I plan on seeing us staying in this relationship for a while now.
He hasn't even done anything to have my dad dislike him.
I haven't left the house in 3 weeks.
I want to move out ... but he already told me that was out of the question.
I can't hang out with any body.
what do i do?

If he holds you against your will he is guilty of kidnapping. You are an adult. You are free to move out. He cant stop you unless you allow him to.
If you need help call this number
1-800-448-3000
Its a crisis line with counselors who will help you.

Sounds like a lot of whining to me. You are still able to use the computer. What was the situation that happened to make your world come crashing down on you?
18 years old is the magic number. You are free to go and live your own life outside of your father's house and control.
If you shoose to stay, you have to understand your father has the right to call the shots about the rules of his household.

Yes nickib maybe he should lock her in the basement, you kids always think that you are grown and all, and as soon as there is a little tough time the first thing you want to do is move back home,ARE YOU OR YOUR BOYFRIEND WORKING SOMEPLACE? NO YOU ARE NOT. DO YOU HAVE MONEY FOR RENT OR ANYTHING ELSE. WHERE IS THE MOTHER IN ALL THIS. YOU AND YOUR BOYTOY NEED TO HAVE MONEY BEFORE MAKING A MOVE.GOODLUCK WITH THAT

If you are truly 18 years old....you are an adult according to all federal and state laws and can move out.....REGARDLESS what your dad says. Just be warned, he probably won't help you in any way, shape, or form once you leave. So SAVE, SAVE, SAVE all of your money!! the reason your dad is taking over your life is that you allow him to do so. Set boundaries and rules and stand behind them. What is your dad going to do.....lock you in the basement?

If your 18 what are worried about? Do you have job? Are you dependent on the financially, is that why you can't move out? You make the decision if you need their money, live by their rules.

If youre 18 you can move out if you want, he wouldnt be able to do anything about it.
Either find a job or finish school, and move out.

Has he given you any indication as to why he has started this new campaign to keep you from going out with your friends? There has to be some reason for his new attitude. You have to talk to your Mother or some older female relative to let them know what is going on.

time to move out! You're 18 years old now he has ABSOLUTELY no say it the matter anymore. Legally - you're an adult and free to do what you want
