The day i move out is finally arriving. I have everything ready and I’ll be leaving to another country completely, to study. They don’t know yet and I definitely don’t plan on telling them. I’m really excited to finally live life on my own terms but I also feel extremely anxious and sad. I know I’ll be breaking my dad’s heart specifically and it’s hurting me. I know this is the right decision for me because if I stay, it means getting pressured into an arranged marriage (im a South Asian F in her late 20s) and even if I somehow dodge arranged marriage, my relationship with them is getting extremely strained and worse by the day. Yet, I feel guilty and selfish. I’m also leaving my job with no notice because I don’t want word getting out in advance. I want to try and rebuild my relationship with them eventually or at least retain my relationship with my sibling. Should I tell them which country I move to without giving any specific details about whereabouts? Or do I keep it vague like “I’m in Europe”?
Any words of advice or motivation would really help…
