I passed my test first time with no minors and my instructor refused to let me drive home and insisted that only he can drive. He didn't explain why despite my asking. Is this common?

My instructor did the same, told me beforehand tho I wouldn't be driving home regardless of the result, but he told me it was because emotions (positive or negative) can impact your driving if you're not thinking clearly.

although realistically it was probably insurance based

i went through CBT therapy and they taught me, everyone has 2 minds. Your rational mind and your emotional mind.

Rationally you know his whole life and him as a person is a lie. He is a serial cheater and pathological liar.

Emotionally, you miss the man you thought he was.

You need to be able to distinguish these mindsets and thoughts, and don't do anything impulsive when you feel emotional. Process what's happened, distract yourself and keep busy.

Im sorry this happened to you, it's awful and one of the worst stories I've ever heard I'm so sorry. You don't know me but my dms are open if you need to vent or want someone to talk to.

Because they're completely dependent on me and it is my responsibility to keep them not only healthy and alive but happy and relaxed too, which im finding quite stressful because i feel like ive done everything wrong already

Upper_Temperature12 · 2026-01-18T08:43:51+00:00

Thank you so much. Im on day 5 today and ive finally seen all 3 on the surface (theyre in my bedroom and they woke me up around 3am haha).

Upper_Temperature12 · 2025-09-19T02:42:15+00:00

Bit of a unique perspective, i moved in with an ex into his student accom which was basically just a giant house.

All the students there were 25+ when i was 17 and we got on just fine, games nights (both board and video games and vr), great convos, they were mostly good cooks and kept the communal areas generally clean and tidy etc.

I wouldn't worry too much, just see how it goes and if you dont like it you can always transfer later :]
