What's a guy like me supposed to do??

Congrats on graduating :). I think you should go to college don't let all the internet hype about college being useless and only putting you in debt get to you because its not really true. There are so many scholarships out here and you could start at a community college which is way cheaper than starting at a university and you can just do great there and after those two years transfer to a 4 year institution. I'm 16 and I graduate in August (but I'm taking a sort of gap year because the university I wanted to attend felt that because I'm young and a girl that something could go wrong in a place where everyone was mostly an adult and they wanted to avoid any future problems.) and I have absolutely no way to pay for school so I'm taking advantage of scholarships, grants, and practically everything else. This is probably a great way for you to get out. I know this may mean nothing and I'm not trying to down talk your parents, but it's not right what they're doing. I'm a Christian, but I don't think that just because a person doesn't believe in God that they should be shamed or looked down on, and I really hate when people of "faith" believe that and say such stupid things. Like fucking chill out with that load of bs, not everyone is going to believe what you do. In the end, the choice is yours. You have to find what makes you happy, do what you believe is right for you. Also don't think that you're never going to find a partner because you haven't really been in a setting to actually find someone, if that makes any sense. If you do decide to college or have any more inquiries I wouldn't mind asking my school counselor. Also if you ever need to talk, well anyone on this thread I don't mind listening, and my memes are pretty dank so. But seriously, best of luck to you. I really hope you figure or have figured things out. :)
