Conversation with Dad

I spoke with my father this afternoon. He's fine with me living with Christian whereas I thought he would be offended that I didn't want to live at home. I told him I should've listened to him regarding Mike, but I learned an important lesson on my own. He understood and said that some people aren't bad people or I wouldn't be with them, but their values are too different. He also said it's not that family isn't important - it is, but everyone should do what makes them happy. I couldn't agree more. For the first time maybe ever we see eye to eye. It took me growing up, and him mellowing out.
