Why do i never want to go home now?
It's just growing up pains! You are entering adulthood and your thoughts and feelings (thanks to those crazy hormones) can be very changeable. Just keep the lines of communication open between you and your family. It is part of growing up to "seperate" from them in an emotional sense, if not physical sense because soon enough you will be "out on your own making your way in the world" but family is family and no matter your age you are still part of that unit. Grow up but don't grow away!
At college and I just want to go home?
It's only my 4th day of college and I just want to go back home. I miss my family and my pets. I've met some people but I'm not good friends with anybody yet. A lot of people already have friends and it's hard to get into their "groups." I'm kind of shy and have trouble making real friends; I have a lot of acquaintances but don't really get close to people. Me and my roommate get along alright, but we're really different people. I get the feeling she doesn't like me, and although we're both nice to each other we barely talk. All I want to do is go see my mom. The college is only 45 minutes from my house, so pretty close, but just far away enough that I can't commute (and I don't have a car anyway). I'm going to come home on weekends, but that worries me too because I'm scared that will make it worse and I won't want to go back. I'm really considering transferring to community college. But I'm worried I'll regret it. This was my first choice school and I like it, but I don't know... I'm just really homesick I guess. The other problem is that I don't really know what I want to do career wise. I'm in college for the wrong reasons - my parents forced me to, it might help me get a job, and I didn't have anything better to do. So I feel like I shouldn't be here without knowing what I'm here for. All I keep thinking is that I just want to go home and never leave and skip all of this college stuff. What should I do?
I'm 25. My parents do not want me to leave their home. I am an engineer with a good job. What should I do?
Clearly your parents love you a lot. They may be afraid to let you go. You are their baby after all. I think they may need some reassurance that you're still going to be part of their lives.As a mother I can kind of see where they're coming from. I say kind of because I have an 11 year old son and the thought of him moving out when he gets older terrifies me however I hope when the time comes I don't get nutty and insist he stay.If I were in your situation I would talk to them again about this. Let them know that you love them and will miss them. Reassure them that you will still be part of their lives like a weekly dinner and maybe some special bonding time with just you and your dad.I'm not going to lie to you, this is going to be difficult for them weather you move now or wait for a year or until you get married. It sucks but remember this, they love you. Do you really think your dad is going to cut you out if his life or your mom is going to die of a broken heart? They will need time to adjust for sure, they will eventually though.If you feel the time is right for you to be on your own you're definitely ready. Don't let them make you feel guilty for wanting your freedom. Your parents may not be crazy about the change but they will adjust.I wish you all the best in your new place!♡
I want to move back home and go to college there. I miss my family like crazy, what should I do?
I cry so much. I have trouble dealing with the fact that my mother is away from me, along with all my loved ones. I couldn't live with myself if my grandparents died while I'm here. I feel like I'm missing out on so much. My mom plans to move to the city where I am so that we can be together, but I don't think that's fair for her. We have our house their, and a good life---here we would have to rent an apartment, and I don't think it's worth it. Some of the pros I see are that I will be able to drive over there, and get my license. I'm 20, and I really need it. I can use family members' cars. I will also be away from my ex-boyfriend, who is a great friend but I am still hung up on...maybe I can finally forget him. Also: -I am a college sophomore (4th semester). -I was accepted into the McNair Scholars Program at my university I may be able to continue with that in El Paso (I would need to reapply) -Though I'm not under contract, I'm involved in my university's ROTC program What do you think, should I go back home, or stay here until I finish my degree? I really don't like this place (the school, the city) but I feel a little compelled to stay.
I want to go home every weekend from college....?
I'm the absolute same way! I'm currently going to a uni that's an hour and a half away from home. I'm so close to my family and I've gone back every single weekend. Which I don't think is a bad thing at all... It costs maybe like $30 in gas for the round trip and I get to leave on Thursdays and come back on Mondays. It's basically like living half at college and half at home with my family and friends. Definitely worth the expenses, family is everything to me. And I say you should do the same!
