Just about every time I buy any car related part or firearm related item it seems like my entire family just wants to cr*p on me for doing it, and then it just doesn't stop there. It carries on for several weeks/ months in some cases and Its not just limited to that stuff either. I have heard It both ways people say who cares what others think. But its hard to burn bridges with family members. I got stuck on some kind of psychotic/stress/ anti depressant medication today from my Dr. and I have a feeling that Im going snap and tell everyone to F off and pack my cr*p and move outa state just to get away from anyone and everyone just so I can be at peace and do the things that make me happy.

end rant.

anyone else have family or friends that do this to them??

Well, I'm sure you cannot sum up the entire issue in such a short space but the bottom line is a grown man is responsible for himself, and at 29, you're a grown man. if you please to spend your money on bird seed and incense...that's your business. If you want to spend it on your car, that's your business too.

Now, if you're spending your money on something self-destructive, the family and friends have a moral obligation to try and change that. But I'm not seeing that in your description.

That said, I feel there's more layers to this onion.
