I still live with my parents while I'm in college because it saves money and I don't have much of that. Every day I drive 45 minutes to campus, spend all day there, then drive home for an hour and a half (traffic) and get home after dark.I don't normally give guys much attention because my dad told me important to focus on my grades until I'm done with all my education.There's this guy in my civics class who always tries to sit by me, and I kind of like getting to see him every day. He invited me out to a party tonight, and I said yes.I mentioned it to my mom and I was really excited, but she went white as a sheet and called my dad and my dad actually got off work early to come home and tell me I "shouldn't go out" because they think that the party is going to be a human trafficking front or something insane like that.I know it's important to keep the peace at home, but I like this guy and I'm 19. I have to start making decisions for my own life.I'm going to try to sneak out. I realize they will probably notice, but I feel like I shouldn't listen to them this time or it'll set a precedent or something.If y'all have any advice to get everybody to be normal about this please help.
>>34489753You're right that it'll set a precedent. But sneaking out isn't the answer either. You have to tell your parents, I'm an adult and it is just a party and I'm going, and then describe the ways you know how to be safe (which are things you and everyone else should be doing anyway desu): never accept drinks you haven't made yourself, don't drink alcohol or go with a trusted dd, text friends your location, etc
>>34489753Don't listen to your parents. Life is about making mistakes, and learning how to pick yourself up from those mistakes. Your parents are SHELTERING you to the point that you won't have the experience to get yourself back on your feet after a mistake. You're going to be completely dependent on them, and eventually on your husband if you don't take steps right now to start living.Ignore them, go to the party, bring a guy home or stay over with a guy. It's your life, not theirs.
>>34489753Did you end up going to the party op?
>>34491035She's at the party getting cracked by that cute guy from her civics class rn
>>34489753Why bitches gotta lie. Just tell them you’re a damn grownup. It is not like you are disrespecting the home.
