I have difficulty making choices…

I do not why but this is the reason why i have been kicked out of college twice and no friends no gf no relation with parents and no future at this moment. I think I may have the father complex, the one where i resent him and he resents me for not living up to his standards and I blame him for all my failures. Knowing this, I think I use this to avoide making choices ( he is very strict and stingy) the only thing he got me was a game boy color and n64. That is it, nothing else. Anyways he chose the college i went to, the major i did and actually anything important in my life. Now i just got kicked out of college and will be living with parents again. So help me why i cannot make choices or decisions in life.

That is something you are dealing with my friend. The first choice you need to make right now is stop blaming others for your mistakes. It seems your father has been controlling you too much and for some reason you weren’t able to stand up for yourself. Things are bad right now for you, but today is the beginning of new chapter of your life. It is time to take control of your destiny, and your future. I don’t know if you have a job, but if you don’t finding one is a good idea. Take your time to discover a career you would like to pursue your real choice and go after. I hope you can find anything good from my suggestions - Good Luck :-)

i have sort of the same problem with my father. You need to step up and sort yourself out, getting kicked out of college is not going to hurt him just yourself. There has to come a time when you have to become a man and help yourself. Stand up to him and tell him how you feel or he will never respect you. As you have found out by following what he wants from you,you will never be happy, and if your not happy and do not have a goal you wont succeed. As for him being stingy how old are you? If you’re going college you should be old enough to get youself apart time job, and buy your own things.

I was 15 years old when I left my parents house for a job. I had to learn to be independent no matter what if I wanted to survive. I don’t think you need to be radical and moving out of parents’ house right now. I do think you should focus in getting yourself a job and continue to discover your career you want. Don’t be using your parents’ money for things you don’t need. I am sure your father you will notice you are changing. Silence is power too, no need to scream or anything just be strong. I think you are doing well - :-)

You need to breack away and follow your passion… Get out there and take classes for a major that you choose, at a school that you can relate with. You are a smart and savvy individual that has made it to college.. Now go conquer it!! I was the last person ever expected to go to college and now I am in law school…Any thing is possible as long as you give it your all.

Maybe some counseling will help you release some repressed feelings. Once you get a bit clearer on how you are - not who your dad wants you to be, then you can start learning to make healthy decisions base on what you want out of your life.

You’ll be alright - but do get some support and professional guidance.

Good luck!
