I hate that my aunt (and sometimes her husband) treats me like I am a child and always a bother.
For context, I am a 26-year-old woman and I live with her, her husband and my two siblings.
They seem to be always on the hunt to find something about me that they can snicker about.
Recently, they have taken to telling me that I am no good at cleaning or even washing myself (among other things) when this was never an issue before, and I hear otherwise from people outside the home.
She's always whispering around and it's giving my younger sister a bit of superiority complex. Imagine being treated as more of an adult than your older sister?
I have mentioned wanting to move out and live on my own because it's maddening to be here and to be constantly ridiculed over issues that I am not even guilty of. But every attempt to do so was shot down for some unknown reason…
I am college student and receive financial aid and was told by a counselor that I can definitely move out…But God forbid I ask her to allow me to manage my own finances.
Unrelated GIF but it's necessary for posting.

>>118898this is unacceptable. manage your own finances, move out and get those nasty people out of your life. find nice people instead and hang with them.

>>118899I am currently searching for social workers that can help me to understand the financial situation.
The bright side is, I have been making an effort to become more independent due to the uncomfortable vibes I have whenever I’m in the household. So, I’m trying my best to continue using that negativity as a means to really become my own person with my own space to do whatever the hell I want to do without unnecessary scrutiny.

>>118898Naturally they don't respect you, because you're such a baby at your age. Best of luck in becoming an independent adult.

>>118912I can understand if that were true. It may be difficult to be respected if you’re especially childish as an adult.
The problem is I don’t really do anything that is “baby-ish”. Yeah, I might have “yessed” her to death on all of her suggestions (which unfortunately revolved around my own independence). But that’s just being a kiss ass.
