The relationship I have with my Dad is quite difficult sometimes and then I just don't wanna go home at all.
I'm not talking about running away, just staying away from my place for a day or so till things calm down a bit and we both have alone time to think about what's happened.
Did you ever feel like thay? If so did you go through with it and what did you do?
Me,I do it now and then...usually stay at a friend for the night but sometimes I feel like I'm a burden to others I just stay out wandering around alone ... I know it can be really dangerous to be outside alone during the night, so I hope others don't do it ...but for me it just feels like the only option then.
My family life really seems so messed up at times...I honestly don't know where to sleep tonite.

I'd suggest you go home and sleep home tonight for the time being. Pretty much nothing else to do, unless you go to a friend's house. I've been wandering alone outside a lot of times because of family issues, and it sucks. Just sleep home for now and try to ignore your dad. Worst time to be out is at night, tbh.
When this is happening to me, i'd go hiking to the mountains for the whole day. You can try doing this, just not at night.
When I come back, everything is cooled off.
Another thing I do is ignore my parents, or just lock myself in my room for awhile.
I really hope you're not spending the night outside.

Is he abusive to you? Is he arrogant and expect things from you you don't really want? How to help depends on the situation. I really can relate to what you're talking about.

He's abusive...
Anyway going home is a bad idea and staying outside is, too.
So it's a really shitty dilemma.

After my parents' divorce, I decided to live with my dad. Now and then we argue a lot, but we are charactercercally etc we are very similar.
So I don't know theat feeling of wanting staying home. At least as regards our new house.
But as for my mom it is different. Normally I should I live with her every other week, but now months have passed where I haven't do so. While we talk regularly by phone, it's a other thing meeting her face to face ... so there is always bickering between us.
Therefore, I avoid it, to visit my mom if its possible.

I used to try and hide out in parks or outside stores on benches sometimes, it is a good way to clear your head and sometimes staying outside can be safer than going to an abusive household in my experience anyway. If you are committed to spending the night outside of home make sure to have a bag ready with things to keep warm at night.

When I don't wanna go home, I go to my sister's house.
Even if you feel like a burden, stay with somebody instead of wandering. They're your friends, they're probably okay with it.
