I’ll be 18 in September. My parents are going to kick me out of the house and make me pay for everything myself. i’ve never even had a job. If i get a job it means i’ll have to quit dance team and dance classes so i have time to work. dancing is my life, idk what i’m going to do. i cried all night last night. idk how i’m going to handle this.
What about teaching dance? Do you have any friends you could share an apartment with? Are you still in school? If so, maybe they will continue to let you live at home until you graduate.
What about applying to college and or living in the college dorms?
Starbucks is always hiring. And they actually take care of their employees. It was my first job for over a year. Also, I still work in the service industry and I can tell you that it really is like performing. Just a suggestion, maybe if you start part time, you can still manage dance as well?
I have dance team mon-thursday from 4:15 to 6:15
Then I have dance class wednesdays for 2 hours after dance team and thursdays for an hour
friday nights i ussually have football games and then basketball games to dance at
yeah, i could get a job and keep dancing but i wouldnt make enough to pay for my car, car insurance, and cell phone bill.
i’ve always been a little spoiled and trust me if i knew one day i was going to have to pay for my car i wouldve have picked out one that was a looooot cheaper.
i know a lot of people have to balance school and sports and jobs i guess though because i always have been spoiled its just really overwhelming having all of this thrown at me at once
to top it off i live in a really small town, no starbucks..
we have a mcdonalds but that’s where everyone in high school works so it’s hard to get a job.
i still have my senior year left and i guess they said i can live at home, but still pay for everything until i graduate, then i’m out.
so i thought no problem then i college i’ll just get student loans and get as far away from them as possible, nope, they won’t cosign..
all of this because i’m a lesbian
cause your a lesbian?? I feel your pain. im sooo sorry. so you told them you were a lesbian and they told you you have to pay for everything now?
They’ve known for awhile but i think they hoped it was just a phase.
now, ive been with my girlfriend for 2 years and i guess they realize it’s serious…
they told me that “deciding” i’m a lesbian is a mature decision and if i am to make this mature decision then i will have to act like a mature adult
All of this really frightens me.. i don’t know how i’m going to take care of myself.
my anxiety is so high.
anxiety is the main reason i SI. I’m trying really hard to stay safe though…
