Oh ok I thought you did say to have them leave, but maybe I just misread that. The problem is that my parents do hover quite a bit, usually I can’t grab my keys without them asking where I’m going and if I leave without them noticing, they’ll usually call/text to see where I went. I also can’t ever be in my room or the backyard for more than 15 mins before they come to see what I’m doing, my mom has even tried to get my to share my phone’s location with her, something that I refuse to do.You don't need to tell them to leave the house. I never said that. Just introduce them and privaterly ask them nicely that they not hover.
As for your bedroom, a coat of paint, a platform bedframe and a new sheet and comforter set. Bam! Can be the new Guest Room. Get rid of any embarrassing paintings you mentioned, while preserving your parents' ego.
Not sure how handy you are or desire to become, but there is a lot of things you can do to the basement to make it a social space. Perhaps this would be a good project for you and your dad to take on together? As long as you are actively working on improving the space, construction debris is considered a Sexy mess. Social media progress pics actually get people invested in you.
I brought a woman into my house while I had a bare concrete subfloor, no counters, no stove in my kitchen and bare studs. She thought it was hot...
Yeah I would never put that in my bio, it was just a hypothetical question to see what everyone here would think the result would be if a guy was to do that.Never, ever, give away your flaws or anything you're insecure about. Women should have to pry it out of you.
You should still put up a profile. It is what you planned to do anyway and got advice as to what not to write.We are currently in a pretty similar place then, and it seems like neither of us are really trying to meet anyone right now. Hopefully this won’t hold either of us back when we put ourselves out there.
