Annoying family

[Riven]

So here's the deal....
I am angry... very, very angry.

Facts:
-My father is dead
- I studied in Algarve (which is 400km away from here)

Now, my mom wants to go and meet a guy she never met in her life in Algarve... And this annoys me why? Because, when i want to go there to review all my friends from university, she makes a scene and all my family makes a scene and they are a pain in my **** because all I do is spend money ...

But she, she can go... And no grandpa won't say a **** thing.... WTF? If I did what she's doing, i'd be punnished forever and my family would be very disappointed at me. But she, she can do it.. It's perfectly normal.. When i took my friends with benefits (we were more than that but not bf/gf) to spain with me for a wedding, everyone buzzed my head on how that was a mistake and i spent 400? and he isn't worth it.... And i was with him for 2 years (we split up because he was from Algarve and i am from 400km away).

Seriously, i hate unfairness (i dont know if this word exists, dont care). I really , really am about to cry because everytime is the same ****.
When i do sometthing bad, everyone criticizes me... but when my mom does it, it's fine.

We have a saying here that literally is : whoever has glass roof should not throw stones towards the neigbour's roof.

and this means that you shouldn't criticize things when later the same happens to you.

And for all this, I hate it here. I might be the first one to make "errors" but when someone else do it... it's perfectly fine.

i wouldnt mind if my mom re-did her life here, HERE.... not 400km away to meet strangers ....

Wow, I am truly sorry that this is happening to you. Is there any way your family might be easier on her because your father has died? They might take the subject of her dating, or whatever else, really strangely because they're touchy about what's right and wrong to say?

Either way, it's not acceptable that you get a double standard. Is it worth bringing up to your family or will that just end in even more fighting?

 

[Riven]

It would end with more fighting

I forgot to reply to this [MENTION=5]Riven[/MENTION]; I'm so sorry.

Unfairness is rife everywhere. [MENTION=2]Lauren[/MENTION] has to deal with it an awful lot in her life, and believe me it is extremely frustrating for us both. I wish I had a lot of advice to give you, but sadly I do not; having an annoying family can be just difficult to cope with, especially when their attitude is just plain silly.

Have you approached her about the situation and how you feel? Has she met this guy yet?

 

[Riven]

yeah. they are dating now and she asked me how i felt about him moving in....

i mean WTF.... she barely met him and now she wants him to move in???
omg.

don't worry. i got my revenge. as she was away, my bf and I had a lot of sex and he slept here. BAM! In your face, mom!

LOL

The women that my Dad married. Complains way to much. My Dad is not well, I swear she making him worse instead being strong and positive and helping him. She is distancing my family away from my Dad. I don't like her.
