Am i a mean person or a jerk or maybe im just spoiled?

	Am i a mean person or a jerk or maybe im just spoiled? I live with my grandma and uncle and most of the time I get called names. If it isnt one its the other. My grandma recently called me worthless and I must admit it hurts because its coming from someone I live with. So my uncle got sick and I told him that if he needs me, he can call me (you know for like little things, i.e. a glass of water), cause I really dont mind. I dont really ask them for anything at all. If I need something I'll ask my mom and if she doesnt have it, I'll wait until she gets paid. My unlce recently called me a jerk, because he called me and I didnt answer. I went to him though and did what he ask. And then he was like dont worry I wont call you again and I hope you dont ask me for anything. Which in I really dont. IDK sometimes I feel like they think I'm begging them for something. I'm grateful for what I have(a roof and food) and I do so by not asking for anything. I mean I guess I can be self-fish at times, but not intentional, I'm a shy person, and kind of bashful(relutant to draw attention to oneself) and my uncle yells at me for being that way. My grandma also said I'm nosey(which is the least offensive thing she called me), but really I'm not. If someone comes to me, I listen, and I hesitate to ask personal questions because I feel its not my place, and I also like my privacy. I also think i suffer from depression, but its not clinically diagnosed. I'm 18 btw, and I havent started college yet, because I want to find the right university, so I wont have to do any transfering. I'm also looking for a job, so I don't have to stay home all the time. Its just sometimes I feel alone, and the world I get called by me grandma is started to take a toll on me and I kind of believe its true. I'm just so sad all the time. I have friends and we go out but I have to be home by seven, and if im late i get yelled at. TBH, when I'm out i dont want to come back hme. Asked By: Just Kickin' It - 1/21/2013

Wow, move out as soon as you can. I dont know the whole story, but they seem like jerks, get a job, save up for a year or until you find the right school to go to, then move out to somewhere near the school for cheap. and don't forget, people don't remember what you do for them, only what you didn't. also, ask them why they call you those names, you might have flaws that you need to fix, stuff you might do that you think are fine but arn't, if you fix those you are good. also if you want them to stop bitchin, do more house work, keep it clean and they wont be able to b***h that you are worthless. but seriously, move out and get your own life if you can't handle being insulted, you are 18 you can move out when you want to.
