letter to dad thread (now defunct)

Is there any way for Gen to come to you and for you to leave with her? Or like any particular holiday or event that calls for you leaving the state and then just not coming back one day? That would be my strategy anyways- otherwise yeah squirling away possessions and money sounds like a good game plan right now ahh

Ahhh! Thank you for the good vibes!!

Also, that's something we considered... Gen has said that she's willing, if things turn out this way, to come to where I live and we take turns driving to her place? Like. This is a trip between north Cali and New Mexico, this would be a really long drive, but we'd do this road trip plan if we had to.

short version of spoilered text: one of the main reasons we'd have to resort to a road trip is if my dad decided to get me a car, while his old car is still working.

(One of the circumstances we've considered that would lead to this, is the possibility of me getting a car before moving, and wanting to take it with me. I can't drive yet, though my dad has been trying to teach me (i might be good enough to get my license by now, but sudden forward progress makes me hyper nervous) and he's been thinking about getting me a car for a long while now? I'm kinda hoping I can move out before he, i dunno, brings home a car out of nowhere like TIME TO DRIVE and then when i move he'll probably use my new car as guilt leverage)

also no, me and dad are hermits, we visit our families (who live a few cities away) like twice a year. We have no reason to leave the state, and I especially don't have a convenient reason to leave alone - except for what Gen suggested, which is "hey my friend in NM wants a roommate bc he's having trouble making rent, and this would be a good opportunity to try out living independently (heavily imply this would only last a year or so)"
which for the most part is true, so ;u;
