My parents went through a rough divorce recently that stretched out over a period of two years. I've lived off and on with my dad, with friends, in dorms, since I was 17 and I'm currently 19 and living with my mom. My mom has an extremely low life boyfriend with a criminal background. He drinks excessively and occasionally does drugs and continues to tear apart the only family I have left. He is also 9 years younger than my mother, but she loves him. He is the only person who makes her happy and she has devoted her life to him. It hurts because I wish she spent time trying to help me out in my life. I openly dislike my mothers boyfriend because I do not like they person he has turned my mother into. Because I've stood up for what I believe, it has become hard to live in the same house as my mother. My dad have disowned me almost entirely and has a new life and girlfriend he doesnt want me apart of. I'm really in a tough situation and I feel like I've run out of option. help?

hey let me throw this out there... I'm currently in school and I have a job, but having a job at my age isn't enough to put me on my own feet.

Okay this is a novel idea. Why don't you get a job, get your own place, stay away from all the drama that is in your parents life. You don't have to stay and watch all the damage your parents are doing to their lives, you need to start your life all over again. Go be happy, and let them get ahold of you. Let them know where you live, your phone number and invite them to call anytime. If they don't call, then you know that you have to move on.

sorry to hear about your situation. Is there anyone, like grandparents or aunts and uncles you can live with until you can get on your own feet?
As for your mom, she's probably just trying to fill a void since the divorce. Maybe you and a couple of other family members can sit down and try talking to her.

No, no longer in case you do no longer take them against their will someplace.no longer as long as you consult with him and notice how he feels. Be truthful. tell him you could no longer tension him to % a dating w/you yet which you're very attracted on your siblings. as long as you do no longer do something like shady ya be attentive to? have not got them mendacity to their make sure to connect up w/you. only that the sister and spouse save it a secret from him which you maintain in touch is kinda atypical. If it can not be truthful and open, only attempt to comprehend you would be able to would desire to attend til your siblings are 18 in the previous you could pursue a dating.it extremely is going to save you all any pointless drama.
