Now my father is really just making me angry. He says I shouldn't get a part time job, a college student, and instead be working on making t-shirts on teespring... Today? Apparently he ranted to my mother about finding a part time job. And we argued about this twice already earlier this month. In fact second time he told me I should at least wait until I see what college is like and I said alright then, give it a month! We still have 10 more days to go! And he's the one who was 'Suggesting' I shouldn't get one. ( Designing shirts is REALLY not my thing. Not to mention that unless it's really clever and what I'd like to say is winning the lottery you won't sell well on Teespring. I Actually already started but nothing I do sells
and I'm trying to keep it simple too. Although most of the shirts are crappy, one of them was okay.) Not to mention my dad is telling me to do Teespring, refuses to supply me with money for Facebook Ads that a lot of the best selling teespring artists say you NEED.
And when I say suggesting this is basically it, if I said, 'Alright if you're suggesting, then I can still go apply.' My dad doesn't give me a clear answer and gets angry at me rants, tells me that's not the point, e.t.c.. and says that in that case I'll stop paying for college. (EVEN THOUGH we had this conversation 10 minutes before that we were talking on these lines 'Son, I only 'suggested' last time that you don't get a job, you can still totally get one.' And I said 'Well if I disobey you, you could stop paying for my college or kick me out.' And his reaction is something along the lines of, 'what I wouldn't do that. You're lying for thinking I would do that and you're making excuses'.) WELLL! WELL!! WELL!!! Was my prediction right on the spot? Not to mention when I brought that up, he's like you're simply being hard and crazy knock it off. And if I ask him, 'IF You're 'suggesting' and I tell you to leave me alone about it because I won't take you're suggestion unless it's a direct order,' He gets angry and tells me 'That's not the point. *Rant*'
Even if it weren't the point, why can he not answer it? It's a simple question and we EASILY fight for two hours per fight, like once a week or a little more, and it's a simple answer right? Unless there's some long Metal Gear solid long plot behind it, which would still mean there's a plot against me. He asks me tons and tons of questions and each time and I give him an answer he just calls bullcrap on it despite it being the truth and then marks me a liar and tells me I can't do crap and I'm useless and e.t.c. Not to mention he ignores any questions I have until I get angry enough to say something that doesn't make sense.
( I JUST LOVE THE FACT THAT HE CALLS ME USELESS Despite mowing down my art class with skill to the point the teacher was like, You're a level ahead. My designer class? I think I can safely say just from how much I covered and how complicated everyone was going that I might be the best artist in their too!) Still not enough. My dad is never content. Until I become a picasso at the age of 19 he won't be content. Man sometimes I want to just hit my head against a wall out of my frustration (I never will. The landlord will kill me if I damaged the wall
.)
I don't get it. What is his problem. Now that I say this, that's my dad on EVERYTHING. Let's say it's his birthday, it's true he's dieting, but my mom wanted to be nice and he buys him cake sounds like a nice thing to do right? Two complaints, one it's a pile of sugar and I'm dieting e.t.c. Two, It's not Ice cream cake e.t.c. Alright next time we don't buy cake, he complains we didn't. (He's still on that diet btw). And even though he complains about the cake, he still eats it. And the next day we bought him a cake when he complained that he didn't get any cake and probably he complained that we bought him. I think I can safely say my dad is just, not right. If I do one thing, he complains and tells me not to do it, if I do the other choice he gets angry and tells me not to do it. And if I do neither, he gets angry and tells me to choose one. I am really unsure, how one deals with this. I mean. Like. I should record these conversations and send them to a psychiatrist or something
That's the best I can do at this point. Cause something is wrong here. A guy can't complain about EVERY POSSIBLE DECISION. Not to mention his 'I'm only suggesting' even though it was practically a demand.
