I haven’t been blogging as much. I’ve been busy with school and life. I’m going through a situation right now that I shouldn’t have to be stressing about and being accused of something I didn’t do. Now it’s not as extreme as I’m making it out to be but it’s a pretty dramatic situation.
My dad kicked me out.
He kicked me out because he disrespected my cousin and when she had the voice to speak up for herself he called her disrespectful. He’s been getting away with bullying us for far too long and I was proud to call her my cousin at that moment.
He kicked her out first and she was just so quick with her responses. Everything he said she matched. Once she left he turned his attention on me. My dad has a misogynistic mentality so he doesn’t believe WOMEN should ever fix their mouth to talk to him like that. And if any men ever read this and thought the same thing let me be the first to say FUCK YOU you insecure little bitch.
Anyways once attention was focused on me he asked me why I let her talk to him that way. HUH? I didn’t LET her do anything. I can’t control another woman’s mouth. Shit I agree with her. But I didn’t say that out of respect for him.
In retaliation, he tried to, in his words, “confiscate my bottle” that I paid for. I bought the bottle for the house and keep in mind my dad is a stingy man who never shares his. Normally I wouldn’t buy a bottle big enough for everyone but I was feeling generous. But once he tried to take my possessions I immediately intervened by telling him no. He didn’t like it one bit and kicked me out and told me I couldn’t come back until I apologized. For what? Not letting you run over me? I didn’t even disrespect him. If anyone deserves an apology it’s me.
He shot me a text today saying he couldn’t allow chaos in his house and that when I’m ready we need to talk. Like hold on, why are you still trying to little girl me? I get I’m your child but that doesn’t mean I’m not deserving of respect for the woman that I am. It felt like a condescending, lukewarm apology without him taking any accountability.
On top of that, my job has still managed to overlap scheduling with the man who violated my privacy. After telling me it was my fault that he did so.
Surrounded by a world full of toxic men, but women will always persevere. I will not let them silence and demean me. I will persevere and make them all suffer.
