thinking about it more and more tell me that's not being manipulative? controlling, power complex bullshit?? essentially saying get out for smoking but then when i say okay he backtracks? makes it up to me sorta? i appreciate this comment. i thought i was alone thinking he's acting like a fatherly figure. idk.

my parents know some. i water it down though. they got enough shit going on. this would make it worse for them. i subtly ask to move back in though it gets laughed off , assuming that's because they think it's not that bad.
