Im 24 and live with my nan, any advice how to be more asservertive?

ie visting friends and going away for a few days, without causing a rowIm 24 and live with my nan, any advice how to be more asservertive?
At 24, I would think your nan would understand that you are an adult and that you are mature enough to make your own decisions regarding what you are going to do. Why would you going on a trip to visit friends cause a stir? I would think that your nan would be glad to see you get out of the house for awhile. You are an adult as I mentioned.Im 24 and live with my nan, any advice how to be more asservertive?
She sounds as if she needs you more than need her. Ask her how she would feel if you moved out. If her first reaction is ';Why?'; then you know that's the case.





Go from there.
just tell her your going away with some friends and your'll be back in a few days, your 24 now she can't hold you back all the time :)
He will respect your assertiveness as long as you say it with calm, and respect that he has his views (even if you find them unreasonable). Especially so if you refrain from any tone that may be construed as patronising or condescending.
Just pop a bit of dope into her cocoa and then you can stay out all night.
Hahahahahahahahaha...





You are a grown adult and scared of your NAN?!!!!





Just threaten to smash her hips in if she doesn't shut the hell up.
just go, eventually she will get used to it that no matter what she says you will still do what you want to do!
I'd say its about time you move out of your nans, that way you can do whatever you want without causing any arguements. Your a tad bit too old to be dependant on your nan.
I think the reason you feel that your not assertive is that maybe you feel guilty? Your nan might be over protective of you but the the one who has to make her see that your not a little kid is you. If you know that your doing everything to prove that you are being responsible and she doesn't change, then you need to move out. Its not impossible to live on your own. If your responsible financially you can still do everything with a bit more effort. I had the same problem with my mother. And don't worry so much about your nan. She can live on her own and you can check up on her to see that she's OK. over time she'll calm down. And if she doesn't, that's something you don't need weighing you down. Its not mentally healthy for you and I can tell you from experience.
You're 24 so as long as you're respectable to her wishes while living under her roof then I don't see why you would cause a row? She must understand that you need to live your life!!
just tell her you going away for a few days your 24
