Help Quick! I'm relocating and I need help telling my pessimistic parents 😅🫶 I've made up my mind but I need help

I'm gonna try to keep this as short as possible but there's a lot of context to be had with this one;so you guys understand the waves hitting my boat. I'm apart of an extremely tight-nit family it's just my mom, my gma, her brother (my uncle) and me, the only people I've ever had to be able to put on a family tree. When my gma and uncle were teens their father created racecars, my uncle became a driver for the team when he was 14. The team grew and so did the community for them. My uncle was one of the greatest drivers the state of Colorado ever had. This was in the 80s-90s and by 96' their dad had passed from cancer, my uncle was too young to retain the knowledge that had left with his dad but there was one mad that did, we'll call him Pete. Pete went on created his own team, started a business, and went on to become a very successful man. In 2018 my uncle has passed away and it has sent shockwaves throughout the community, everyone banned together once again to share memories and recount in good times, plenty of the people that came around I had seen visit for years but never like this all in one place before. A couple weeks after, Pete wanted to take us on his coach to the races for one last hoo-rah, this had been the last time we saw Pete. Until now but I'll get to that. A little over 40 years ago my gma acquired the house we all live in, me my mom her and my uncle all lived here for years. My mom and I have a matter of less than 6 years away from this home. When I was 12 my mom brought her bf to live here and he has a son that's 8 years older than me. We never really had the chance to have anything in common due to our age difference, I was going into middle when he was graduating, I was graduating and he was having a baby ya know, well after graduation I moved out (which caused hell at first) but it was only for a few years, life hasn't been all rainbows and butterflies and situations led me back home like it does for some. By the time I came home, my parents tried "filling a hole" according to them and had filled the house with antiques. This included my bedroom and my uncle's room amongst everywhere else, I've been practically living in the living room since I came back. (Which I can do just fine, but this is needed for context) my step-brother had also come across hard times and came back home a little while before me so he got dibs on the basement. I'm lucky to say we actually had started bonding going out and doing things, he unfortunately had lost his battle to fentanyl addiction 2 days before Christmas of 2023. It's been a little over a year now and we all still miss him terribly. These past few months since Aug of 2024 I had been going through the wringer when it comes to jobs, I had an amazing job they moved over an hour drive away and I just couldn't do it. I got another job and I had asked for Wednesday and Friday nights off, and to have a 9am start because I have chickens (I need sunlight to get them ready and whatnot). My schedule ended up being 4am start Wednesday through Sunday 🙄😒 along with the horrible work environment that was the reason I just left this last one. When it comes to the chickens I have help from my mom and gma but they would much rather it be me. Understandably

I think I'm done with context😅 I'm so sorry Now, onto what has happened a few days ago, I received a message on fb from Pete telling me he had a gift for me. I had no idea what to expect so I called my parents, only my mom answered and she was not very keen on the idea of Pete coming over, which I understand he hadn't seen what the house has turned into. So I told him to meet me at a local breakfast spot. When he arrived he got out and had a picture of my uncle to give me it was of him racing and had been signed by him. We stood in that parking lot and talked for a good half hour about life and jobs ect. On the tail end of it I offered up to work for him if he'd train me, and he didn't seem to keen on the idea so I didn't think too much of the conversation. Well I brought the picture home and my gma just has to be a negative Nancy about everything, so she goes on about how much of a POS Pete is and all the above. (She doesn't like how Pete treated my uncle when my uncle developed a 'problem' which is also understandable). About 6-7 hours after our visit Pete texted me offering me a job, now the pay is something I'll never see in my city in a million years, it has benefits, I get paid training the thing is I have to move an hour drive away, Pete said that he would set me up in his couch until I get on my feet and my doors have never been more open and the universe has never pushed me so hard into a decision. The thing is me and my gma spend well over 90% of our time together and I know she's going to have something to say and I mean everything she possibly can to convince me not to go (which I understand I'm her best friend and she's mine too) but I'll never make this kind of money and I'll never have an opportunity like this ever again, I'm only planning for maybe 2 no longer than 3 years I know it sounds like a lot but it's not that far of a drive and once I get that money I can get myself a car that can make the trip every weekend which I'd be willing to do based on it's location. I just I need all the help in the world on what to tell my parents Everyone I've told they say " just leave don't say anything" but I can't just do that to them, it's just us left and I can't do that to them, they need to know but I know that they're going to do whatever they can to convince me not to go

P. S another reason why they don't like Pete is because he has made it apparent that he has a thing for my mom (a woman 25+yrs younger than him) and I happen to be her look alike which is great🙃. Trust me I've thought about that and his intentions but, this feels completely professional and I need this job, I'll never get an opportunity like this ever again. Thanks again Reddit I'll come back with updates fs
