i "proved to everyone" that i could live on my own, but all that ended up happening was me getting taken advantage of by everyone, even my own fucking father.
My landlord, my roommates, the random drunk people that'd eat all my food and steal shit, the utilities company that jacked up our rates 300% after the first 2 months of living there,

even the fucking dog took advantage of me by pissing blood on my furniture

my life is literally hell, count your blessings
