Nagging moms

[NJMasti]

@PyariCgudia

I know my mother means well but she’s never said much positive to me her whole life. Well, my whole life I guess. We went out today and from the moment we get in the car to the moment we got back it’s been nag nag nag. Everything I do wrong. My diet, my weight ( and it’s not like I’m fat), my driving, my seatbelt, I should buy this and not that.

I got back and was aching - I’ve caught a cold which is just another stressor which means I might be dismissed from work for ten days which I cannot afford. She sees I’m foggy headed and tired and finally wrestled the tv from my dad she starts going on and on about the dramas on geo.

She is generally sweet but so mean about her inlaws. We don’t live with them. They don’t bother her. She still complains. My dad JUST resumed talking to her after a cold period after Eid when she complained of my paternal side cousin, who honestly did nothing to deserve her nasty remarks. So when I threw my temper tantrum today of handing my mom the remote, my dad jumps in and yells at her. I didn’t look at her face but I could feel her heart breaking into pieces. Problem is that she WONT stop nagging N backbiting our relatives.

Then, knowing it’s my one goddamn weekend off, these two want me to give some free professional advice to family friends. Look I’m not a bloody pooch. You want to hear my opinion? Then pay me. Same family that calls me their daughter and let’s their kid marry someone else. So sorry mum! I don’t particularly care to go see them on a Saturday night!!!

My family just does not let me relax.

lol PYG - you are beginning to sound like a little sister. Every family has issues, and you seem to be the “normal” one here -

With all the things you wrote - you definitely sound like you are ready to cross the bridge and be on your own! So why don’t you girl???
