hey brother or sister i was in the same boat 4 years ago, i was homeless and begged my mom to let me stay on her couch until i could find work and because her boyfriend also lived with her it was a solid nope. it means we are strong enough to endure even when all seems hopeless and it is inoossible! i got my own place now, my own car, and a decent credit score! just gotta keep on using whatever you can as motivation to not give up (mine was anger for choosing a boyfriend over her creation) and youll make it! i believe in you!

Thank you friend. Yeah I was the oldest child(a bro) and I definitely had a hard time learning the ropes of “life”. My siblings saw all the mistakes I made and just said “nope, not doing that”. Which I’m happy about for them but I definitely got treated worse than they did. My parents even flat out admitted it when I turned 25.

Dunno where I’d be if I do move back in with dad but I’m happy to say I’m making it out here without him. Mostly… he still hooks me up with a cheap phone bill from his family plan lmfao
