Alright so I (17f) and my gf (16f) were on my bed making out because we thought my parents left and their location showed that aswell, but we didnā€™t realize they came back home and my mom walked in on us making out and ran to tell my dad. After that my gf quickly called her dad and told him the situation and that she needs to get picked up asap. so heā€™s on the way and I donā€™t want to be there because of the last time this happened so Iā€™m begging her dad to take me too, but heā€™s like they havenā€™t kicked you out yet and I donā€™t want to be labeled as a kidnapper. so now Iā€™m calling my best friend to see if she could let me sleep over and she said the same thing, and then my gfs dad pulls in and she gets in the car. my parents come up to my room fuming and started screaming and degrading me and my dad was the most pissed of them all, he grabbed one of my bags and hit me repeatedly with it until my mom told him to stop and to go to work, he grabbed my phone and when he left he screamed not in my house. so I quickly packed some things and waited for the right moment and I left and I walked 55 mins (1 mile away) to the nearest Panera because of the of the WiFi and I take my school computer out and email my friend to please come pick me up but at that point my parents already called the police and are looking for me so they get there in 15-20 mins. my friend comes in first and tells me ā€œyour mom and dad are on the wayā€ and I start breaking down saying ā€œno their going to kill Me pleaseā€and my dad comes in and grabs me and goes letā€™s go get in the truck, so I do because I have no other choice. on the way home he once again degrades me even more. when we get home he parks and tells me this whole speech of like hes doing this for the best of me, and he loves me more than anything and he will always be on my Side and that the world is brainwashing me. he gave me my phone back and was like promise you will straighten up and tell this girl that you guys can only be friends and that you canā€™t hang out, and Iā€™ll let you guys text because she seems like a good person. I pinkie promised, but Iā€™ve never been at such of a low in my life lie weā€™re together for about 8 months and it just hurts. is there anything I can do to Make the situation better? (also I wouldā€™ve gotten my license next week but they might take away my privileges to do hat too)

UPDATE:

this is just some extra info

This all happened yesterday and today he woke up as if nothing ever happened but they didnā€™t allow me to go to school and they might force me to change schools but try to change their mind in any way possible because 1, I donā€™t want to be sent to a catholic school and 2, this is the second time this happened the first time being when I was 14 and tried coming out and they stripped me of any kind of communication with the outside world for 2 years and I donā€™t want to loose all of my friends once again

Also just to make sure everybody realizes I cannot hang out with my gf anymore, I can still speak to her but strictly as friends.

I talked to my gf and we are going to continue dating from a distance without making it too obvious just until Iā€™m 18 and am able to move out.

I also talked to my friend and she offered help in case the situation ever got worse as her mom is a social worker and can help me remove custody and live with a friend.

All of the advice given in the comments are really good and I really appreciate it!

UPDATE:

I do realize that itā€™s a run on sentence and Iā€™m sorry I was stressed and just wanted to get some ideas on what to do in the future

Just to clear some things up aswell, my father and I have a joint account but I cannot sign in to access or see it until Iā€™m 18, but I can go to an atm and take some money out when I can but he will notice quickly .

I can also not find another job until I move out because he would find out that I have another job of some kind either way.

Overall Iā€™m just trying to find a way to get out asap! And thanks again for all of the suggestions in the comments!

UPDATE:

So my gfs family and I are trying to do research on any way I can legally leave my household, and Iā€™ve been looking at some last emancipation cases in my state and itā€™s not keeping my hopes up. Also because in Massachusetts (my state) there isnā€™t a formal procedure for a minor to petition for emancipation.

Also I gave the social worker mom my email yesterday as a way to contact her with any questions but she hasnā€™t gotten back to me yet.

My gfā€™s parents are also helping set up a bank account for me and her father said I could stay at his place whenever I needed to.

ALSO ,to clear some things up. when I say this is the second time this happened Iā€™m talking about my father hitting me because Iā€™m gay, not because I was kissing or making out with a girl in his house. When I first tried coming out because I thought they would accept me my mom at first did because she has a gay brother, but my dad went crazy and hit me. He also talked to my mom saying he would leave her if she allowed me to be gay and so she stayed because she doesnā€™t have a steady source of income without him.

FYI I know some of the comments are like we needs the dads side and based on what he told me he just doesnā€™t want gay people in his own family he said so himself because he hates gay people. He also believes that being gay is a choice and not that you canā€™t help yourself.

Anyways all of the helpful comments have been so great and I appreciate them sososo much! Thankyou!

UPDATE:

My mom just told me that my dad got notified that cps might do a welfare check and she was pretty mad about it. I said I have no idea how or why thatā€™s happening just overall not trying to be suspicious of anything

They assaulted you, how are all the comments missing that part? Call the police and social support, press charges, make as much noise as you can.

For a few months only if that, with a massive damages settlement for assault. Beats living in an abusive household and literally tortured, physically or mentally or both.

Sarcasm aside, they committed the horrible crime of assaulting a child. I'm sensing a long history of mental abuse too. Their lives absolutely should be ruined.

They may or may not redeem themselves through long years of hard learning, but that's a different story. Right now they are monsters.

Cool. Abusers should go consequences-free and keep on abusing, got it. How does the earth hold you is beyond me.

So you're accusing her of making up the detail of her father physically hitting her? Victim-blaming at its finest. Reported and blocked.

[not loaded or deleted]

Because this "advice" tells her to continue living with and bowing to her abusers who physically assaulted her.

[not loaded or deleted]

See my reply to the actual post.

[not loaded or deleted]

I did. My advice is in my reply directly to her post, not to your abuse-condoning comment.
