Thinking of moving out of my house

[anon64704623]

I have been staying with my aunt for almost 20 years. She loves to control everybody and everything in the house, budding into other people’s business, loves money and nobody can say she is wrong. She thinks the world is conspiring against her and if she can’t win you she’ll makeup a lie so that she can still wins. She screams at everybody including her own father and mother. When others made a mistake she will attack them but if she made a mistake nobody can correct her. She won’t listen to any advice because only she can advice others and she thinks she is always right. Her favourite sentences is “Nobody will do like this in this entire world”. I am feeling stressed out and I am thinking of moving out of the house for some peace and solitude. Although I am angry at her for her unreasonable attitude but I still forgive her as it is a christian thing to do. Did I do the right thing by moving away?

Of course it’s fine to move away. You have no obligations to remain living with your aunt.

Ditto what Lou2U said.

As Dr Phil would say, the only thing worse than being in a bad situation for 20 years, is being in a bad situation for 20 years and 1 day.

If you believe the best thing to do is for you to move, there is nothing wrong with that.

‘Staying’ with your aunt for 20 years? That’s a lot of time. Did she help raise you?
Since you don’t agree with her on a lot of things, you should move out. It’s about time!

This house belongs to my grandfather. She is the only daughter who is not married so she ended up staying in the house. Now my grandfather, grandmother and father had passed away leaving only me, my brother, my mom and my aunt. My mom and aunt always fight and now my mom moved away. So now I am left with my aunt and my brother. Everyday, the minute she wakes up, she will shout and scold my brother all the foul languages for borrowing her money. My brother’s monthly salary is under her control and refuse to give him a single cent to spent. She keeps saying her money is almost finished but spent 80% of the month traveling abroad. She has half a million dollar in her account and owns a shoplot in another country.

Also, she won’t believe in any religion. She said it is for the gullible people to believe in God. She said as long as you are a good person that’s enough.
