*was a bright kid, then things went downhill for me as i was bullied in school, parents expected me to stay out of trouble and do well in studies so never fought back and became easy target. school life was shit.. Used to sit alone in class after 5th standard with almost whole class against me
*money was a big issue parents thought they are teaching me importance of money but in turn they taught me it is the single most important thing in life and i don't have it..
*did bad in 10th exams and dad made my life a hell constant nagging , drama and shit plus i had no friends and was bullied life became shittier.
*lost interest in studies and did poorly in 10+1 and 10+2 , wanted a personal vehicle in 10+2 as most of my friends had one , dad promised to get one if i manage 70% in 10+2 , i managed 78% which was not at all expected by him, and yes dad never got me a vehicle as he said it was too costly . i got more depressed, plus it added fuel to the fire for the bullies as i had told all my friends i am getting a bike
*then i went to college and still dad started with same shit , told me to not to waste money and stay away from the rich folks as they can afford things which i can't think about..followed the same and never asked for any money other then traveling expenses and books no college canteen, no college outings, no fun at all, turned back all the chicks because i had no money to go out and spend on a girlfriend.
*started working my ass off to earn health went downhill for me, started skipping college classes, flunked few exams but never told my folks as they would start with the same shit again(thank got professional colleges don't have a parent teachers meet). Dad still gave me shit about how people get placed and he does not see me doing well in life and how i will spoil there retirement.
*Wanted me to move out asap and do something. Always told me he only has enough to plan his retirement and fears i will make it hell for him as he would have to support me
*Starting from a big 0 i managed to do well on my own and became a successful App developer and then i earned some big bucks as royalty in a huge project i worked on,. Parents who wanted me to move out as soon as possible stuck with me as magnets all thanks to new bank balance , gave them a good % of my money honestly. its still not enough for dad. it took him all these years to have bankbalance as the amount i just gave away
*found a girl, i thought is the girl of my dreams, 2 year relation , i pay for education , living and everything. No action for me as she claimed she is "pure?" and wants to wait till marriage i have no problem with that .. found out she was cheating on me with a "model" bf of 5 years fucking around, worst of the feelings i had till now ,felt like someone ripped my heart out . she took off as she gets a good job thanks to the education . fell into depression , emotional eating and all that shit.
*wanted to move out, parents started emotional shit , invisible shackles were put and i never managed to break free. started to hate my existence and felt helpless and powerless
*but now i am at peace with my past and i am picking up the broken pieces, trying to fix my health and getting life back on track. so i got this going for me which is good. i hope i am able to break out of this shit storm soon :)
