He’s too old for you and is taking advantage. You might be 18, but as you acknowledged he’s lived a whole life and it seems to me he’s interested in the sex and you are interested in something more. With your issues (that I fully relate to) I think you should cut this guy. Cold turkey. I doubt he’s going to realize an 18 year old is the relatable love of his life and choose you. You deserve someone who’s more relatable to where you are in life and a relationship without unequal power dynamic.

I'll take paragraphs for $200 please Alex.

Wtf you are a teenager! I am 31 now and cant even imagine having a relationship or even just sex with a teen at all. This dude is a creep and you really should get over your addiction

Being a citizen in a civilized society involves engagement in the social contract. Your brother and mother seem keen to return to pre-law anarchy of some kind. If finders are keepers where does it end? If she leaves her car keys out is the car now yours? Can you sell her silverware if she doesn't lock it up?

I do understand your desire to not rock the boat and your safest option is to begin planning for your exit from this environment. Unfortunately their are plenty more unscrupulous people who will not hesitate to take your things so be careful who you trust.

What a fucking idiot. OP is a literal child in an abusive situation where if they do anything to stand up for themselves the family will clearly retaliate worse. Trash take

Hey, the next time you do that thing with your thumb and index finger to work out the arthritis, make sure you get the Italian waiter.

Welp she’s laid down the rules! Finders keepers now!

Right? I get frequent headaches. I read a lot and spend a lot of time in front of screens (I'm in IT) and my eyes get dry and tired easily. I've never had to do anything like that to my eyes.

bad post weird vibes

Go buy a pack of smokes and get over it welcome to the adult world kid

Lol, bro. Wtf 😂😂😂

Sell the controller. Sell the replacement. Sell replacements until you're reimbursed. Leave a thank you note when you move out.

By not presenting solutions to get your money back and not telling your parents it's time to compensate and not filing a police report, you and your sister are enabling his theft and letting him know that he can get away with it in the future. If you're willing to be sneaky, your next best revenge is to delete his Fortnite account. You may need a security code for this. That would hit him HARD if he's like any of the Fortnite players I know. Your mother is actively causing trauma to you and your sister. Stand up for yourself and your sister and do something about it.

Amazing, no notes 😅

I thought that I had everybody on my side,

Because statistically, two thirds of romantic relationships start as long-term friendship.

Of course everyone has a different story, but this many downvotes just show that acting like his own story is how it works for everyone is a mistake.

There is so much FU here that i feel this should be split into multiple posts, but to sum it up I'll just say it's not to late to fix this if you get out NOW. Even if he's a nice enough guy (who leaves but doesn't know when he's getting back?), there's clearly alot of toxic stuff here and nothing good will come of you trying to stick with him.

then enjoy being robbed, ffs

May aunts neighbour has a dog called Ben and one called Mia, so apparently they can't remember names that are longer than 3 letters. Best thing is, they had a baby. They called the baby Ben. Dog Ben was still around. So apparently with age memory isn't the best anymore, remembering 3 letters is getting harder and harder, so they just stick to the names they already know.

I would go with Father Ted

bro, fuck your step bro. i will dead ass "accidentally" spill liquid on his entire gaming station/device.

Op is either a senior or fresh out of high school and he's 32 and been out a decade and some change

Maybe, just maybe you're putting too much into this?
