i am 22 living with a man 20 years my senior.the thing is this man makes sure i am well taken care of,whichever way possible.i am doing an online degree course but staying home each day i get bored,i endlessly seek jobs;i am deciding to migrate to the u.s voluntarily but this man ,keeps saying i must not go but i am young and i dont think it would be right to sit with a man and lose out on the interesting things in life.we argue at times and he often says,i must sort myself out,i think he means financially i should find a way out.what should i do?

If you don't want to be with him and have different goals, then you need to discuss this with him, make a decision and follow through with it. If you are unhappy and decide to stay with him, you will just end up miserable and regretting not taking charge of your own life. I am surprised he wants to be with you. I would not think that a 42 year old would have anything in common with a 22 year old. Maybe that is why he wants you to stay home and not see what the world really has to offer.
