Frustrated with parents nowadays

I am doing wfh from tier-3 city. I dont have friends. I work and go to gym. I introverted as a person. So i dont talk in gym too. I have just one friend who is also married. I understand that he cannot come with me outside anytime. So i found a board game community in my city. They play different types of board game at every weekend. I have to pay nominal amount and my 4 hours are fixed on sunday. So they also organise different nights based on different games. So i attend 1-2 time in a week. When i came home at around 11:30 PM, my father said you are being hypnotized at games. My father is thinking that the people who organise these games hypotize me and he will not be able to see me hypotized at this level. Btw i am male and he is saying such things. Tired of this shit man. I dont do smoke,drink and no bad habits. When i try to socialize and they are restricting me.

Thinking of going to office, so i can live my life at my own terms.It will not happen as money is more precious to me .

But any solution for this without some word fights?

Bhai i am in full angry mode. Har chis mai dakhal dena hai kya. I also dont do any drugs, tobacco and smokes. I dont have a gf too. That club is my only chance to socialize in city.

Drugs/tobacco/drinking kar bhi liya to use loneliness chala jayega kya? Thoda better feel karoga jabtak high rahoge tab tak. Abhi gusse me ho tum, jabtak dimag garam hai tabtak is bare me mt Socho. Dimag thanda hone bad shanti se sochna kyu mana kar rahe hai and root cause identify karke uspe unse discuss karo

I guess he is worried that you are into gambling or getting involved with people of shady character.
I think he is stopping you from meeting these people because he is genuinely concerned about you. Show him your bank statements and prove him that you aren't gambling.

Nope i dont think so. He does not care about my money nowadays. He has not asked for a bank statement for past 1 year once we had a new business.

Bhai almost similar situation , These r common issue after a certain age Sometimes I also do get angry and talk back But as a kid we have to support them

Try to convert the things they say into a funny way and lead a happy life, every parent wills to provide a better life for their kids

Agreed , i got angry in no time. I convinced him by giving background of organisers. Organiser has a business and arranging these activities for fun. Now he said go now whenever i want to play those games. Need people skills i guess.

Moving out after a certain age is the best option. Parents become very nosy poking into personal life. Yes they have their concerns but it’s for the best for both the parents and kids

No, you need to have the tough talk with your parents and set boundaries. In India everyone will take you for granted if you don't do that.

Yeah agreed. I had done that with mom. I will talk to him in night again. Hope he understands, other wise new house is the solution.

A lot of people get addicted to gaming . He is more worried for you . They are not trying to be strict to you cause they hate you , it’s cause they are worried about the exposure you are getting and they can’t protect you . Try and talk to them . Look at all news of men killing themselves dude , when parents watch news it makes them more fearful now a days . And they are not responsible for you being an introvert also that’s your choice . Sometimes we have phases in life where we are just blank and things are not moving that fast . Try and go to office or make plans to travel . Smoking and drinking are social cues but we all know they are injurious to health , no decent parent will ever encourage that .

Agreed to your point. My father watches 9 PM news daily which contains all the killing person news. So that shit just got in his mind. Tried talking to them but mummy is also with him.

Yes i am introvert. Will try to talk to someone on daily basis in gym.

I just went to trip 2 months back. Dont want to go anywhere in this summer.

I moved out of my hometown even when my job is remote. I told them that the office has called onsite.

Better now. Been two years, they don't know that my office is remote.

Man I can feel you. Because of these kinda parents we have no social skills, eventually, we'll develop social anxiety and social awkwardness. I have them. I often feel I wish I could've been born in Western states cuz they will get freed from parents once they turn 16 or smth. Sometimes I feel like shit being stuck with parents even in your mid 20s.
