I told the story of my cousin in Long Island in another thread but I'll go in depth. Anway the premise of my thread is that my cousin told me last night via text he has made palns to get away from his parents by the end of this week. Let me tell you the story of how it came to this. My cousin is 24 and has a lil bro. His parents are strict haitians espcially the father who is my uncle and my pops younger brother. Anyway he is a virgin,never kissed a girl but he isnt lame tho. He has plenty of friends,has alot of girls who are friends but never got laid. He told me he has lied to his freinds that he gets females and is not a virgin. Now the reason he is a virgin is many things. In High school my uncle never allowed him to go out and hang out with friends nor did he allow him to date. So it was always school and then home. He would lie to go chill with his friends but he couldnt stay out past 6pm. :mjcry:
There was plenty of chicks in high school that wanted him but he couldnt do anything because of the constraints his pops put him under. He was allowed to go dorm for college so he went to a CUNY school. He went to Queensboro. In college he was allowed to date at 21. So for two years he couldnt do anything. Once he turned 21 my uncle said "You can go date BUT you have to tell three weeks in advance so I can give you money to go on that date." :troll: My cousin was like :why::mjcry:. Thing is my uncle doesnt allow him to get a job and ear his own money. My uncle has this thing that a student should focus on shcool alone and not get a job. He says in kreyol that money and education doesnt mix. My haitian brehs and brehettes know that haitian parents speak in parables alot. Anway so he has no work expereince at 24, never been with a women and feels miserable. He straight up told me that his pops is a very bad temper and would go on rants against him,his lil bro and his moms. Now his pops got glaucoma and cant work so money is tight and he cant even depend on his pops for money for dates in the first place. :snoop:

He made up his mind to get out. He is going to be living with another one of our cousins in Queens. Thing is he is worried what his father will do cuz his father has a very violent temper and is worried about his mom and lil bro. Is he right to move away. He is 24 and an adult and is miserable where he is at in life. He wants to get a job and get his master in Public Health so he is ambitious. He is very optomistic though he knows things will get better. He never wanted to commit that. :blessed: So is he wrong to get away or should he suck it up and stay? :jbhmm:

Neither.

He should confront the Father bout this issue, they're both Men.

If the father wants to be stubborn then it's time to go.

The father is very stubborn. He once called him "fresh" for even trying to talk to him about getting ajob. He said something like "oh you want a job so you can boss me around the house!" I have seen his pops mad at him and its very disgusting. SMH. I feel for him for real. The father is irrational and very emotional.

Damn did his father even let him live in a dorm? Jesus. Your cousin definitely needs his independence but he needs to talk to his father about this. What about his mother? She don't say nothing?

He never mentions his moms tho. I guess shengets along with it. She seemed cool to me but he never tells me much what his moms think of. He just tells me that his dad yells at his moms contatnly that is it.

He has to do him.

If his man is a man, he will eventually get over it. If not, :manny: I have a very similar family situation. I struck out on my own and did me, and it all worked out for the best.

What I think is happening is your uncle is a control freak, and he is fearful of all the things going on in this new country he doesn't know anything about. Education is the only sure bet. I know EXACTLY where he is coming from. Ultimately though education doesn't mean much if you can't get employment. Your cousin needs to start his life.

*It's good that he didn't fck in hs, no one in hs should be fcking anyway if they're underage.
*LOL @ running away when you're an adult. That's not called running away, it's called moving out of your parent's house because you're an adult. No one will come looking for you unless you are missing.
*Tell them that you are moving out so that they won't call the police and say that you're missing.
