Problems with my life!

Are you complaining or seeking attention?
If complaining, leave your house and Create your own life by getting a degree
If attention seeking then you're wasting time

I'm neither complaining nor seeking attention. I just wanted some advice on what to do cos I'm in a terrible state of mind now!

Protestant Anglican High Tory here.

The question is what do you want. Do you believe in what your parents say or what your friend want? If you believe in what your parents say then you must do that. If you want more balance between what your friends want and parents say then do that. Though I have no friends, most people can't do what do they need friends. I can understand your position. Just be truthful and tell those in your life what you feel/want.

In my honest opinion, your family are basically oppressive.
I can imagine you're probably feeling extremely guilty for going behind their backs and disobeying their religious beliefs (religion tends to make it's subjects feel guilty...how lovely). How do you feel about the religion you're basically being forced to follow? Do you believe in it? Or has it become something you have to follow or else be persecuted by family?

It seems pretty clear anyway that you have to choose between what you want and what you're being forced into following.
Whatever you choose it isn't going to be easy, especially if you're family are as extreme as they sound.

Yeah pretty much they are but the thing is even though I don't have much freedom and stuff, I know that my family loves me. I feel like just staying at home cos I love being at home and going outside always makes me feel really really really uneasy. If I go outside I feel like I have to face my friends and stuff.
You are absolutely right, I do feel guilty and I mean it. It just hurts to know that I'm a Catholic girl and I don't have freedom cos a lot of them do. I do believe in God and my religion. In fact, I love my religion but I just want a little more freedom rather than disobeying them cos that hurts too.
Yeah hopefully when I go to Uni, I might feel better but right now, I'm taking a gap year out. I had dreams of becoming a model which I know is not possible so end of this year, I'm gonna apply to Med school! No, they are not that extreme but they are really bossy!

Well, I do want to obey my parents but at the same time I want to experience what every other girls have in their life too so I'm really confused on what to do! Thank you for understanding me. I basically just want to enjoy life! I feel really left out when I'm with my friends.
Also, aren't Protestant Anglicans allowed to date?

Trust me, from an outsiders perspective. They are extreme.
Good luck applying to med school, hope you find what you want

Have you explained the way you are feeling to your parents? Or your friends? That is all I can say you do, explain it to them. Try and create a compromise between the two of them which better suits you and what you want.

Yeah I get what you are feeling, I felt the same way when I was 16-17 so I ditched my friends because I didn't want to drink or have sex with anyone. I have eyes to see what people were doing and I never liked it, I prefer Protestant morality to Secular Liberalism. None of my friends where believers.

Sure Anglicans can date and have sex with protection. Though I am a High Church Anglican. So I basically support the views of the Reformed Catholic Church in England established by Henry 8th. Though I have no issue with kissing or holding hands. However full sexual contact should wait until marriage. For most Protestants it is an internal choice if you have sex or date or not. My parents are non-Conformists they have more issues with me being an Anglican. Than they do my brother not believing and have sex with loads of girls outside of marriage.

that diss game though

I feel bad for the OP, it must be hard to balance being modern and adhering to traditional principles

You're feeling sexually frustrated and claustraphobic. This is both understandable and extremely common,.

You are also an adult, and therefore your own solution. The kindest thing you can do for yourself, and your family (in the long run), is rebel a little, and start to build up the confidence to secure the independence from your family that you obviously crave.
