<p>To make a long sob story short and less sobby, I really NEED to get away from my family and everyone around me for college. I planned to do this by going to an out of state school, however I applied to the wrong schools (super mega reaches) and got rejected from them all. </p>
<p>I only have two of my safety state schools left. I REALLY hate one of them (University of Oklahoma) and I would only go there if I absolutely HAD to. The second school I really like, however I'm not even in the school yet and my mom and family are already taking over everything. It is really ****ing me off. </p>
<p>I really need a way away from this state and my family. I need to be on my own or else I will just forever be relying on my parents forever. However, the problem is that it is too late to apply anywhere good (a want to go to a somewhat decent school so I can go to med school). Is there anything left for me to do to get away?</p>
<p>Enlist?</p>
<p>Put up with it for a year and than transfer?</p>
<p>IDK really what to do</p>
<p>I’m sorry to hear that you and your family don’t get along.</p>
<p>But if you really like the school, go to the second school that you like. You can live on-campus and get a job and you’ll be so busy that you’ll hardly have time to talk or see them. How exactly are they taking over?</p>
<p>Would going to a community college, moving out and living in an apartment, and getting a job be a valid option? I feel like that is the only way I can get away from her. I want to go to medical school eventually though…idk…</p>
<p>Also she has literally taken over all communication with the school and treats everyone like they are workers. “What I want you to do is ____ and by ___, okay?” She over talks me, everything I say she contradicts and says to others.</p>
<p>ZombieDante,
Time for you to have a really, really open and frank conversation with your Mom. You are an adult (assuming you are 18). She needs to hear your expectations and you need to hear her concerns and a new type of relationship needs to come of it…
If you don’t think you can have that conversation with you Mom alone maybe you can enlist a family member, close friend of the family, pastor etc. to be there with you as a moderator so that you both can move on to the next phase of your relationship.
Good luck!</p>
