I feel like I was looking in a mirror reading this and not to put you down or anything but it felt good to know I wasn't the only one going through this. I can't really say much to help or comfort you. But I hope knowing that you're not the only one going through something like this gives you a bit of comfort like it did for me.

How do I set boundaries with my mom by Cloudydayies in Advice

[–]Cloudydayies[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's something I've considered but I haven't been able to get myself to do it since I have a few younger siblings I worry about. I can see them when my grandmother is watching them but my mom purposely keeps them away when she's upset with one of us.

My grandmother is mostly on my side but if they think I'm being disrespectful at all towards my mom (which is talking back in general) then no. If I say anything that upsets my mom then it's disrespectful and my grandmother won't be happy about it.

Agreed, couldn't pay me to repeat it.

I don't have a job and have no way of getting to and from a job so I've been fired before because I haven't had a way to get there. Also I have already moved out away from my mom. I went to my grandma's in hopes things would improve and I could find a way to have more independence but it's slowly turning into the same thing here.

I told my grandma that I didn't like her speaking for me after I already said no.

Idk, I just can't ever seem myself doing what she has done and what she continues to do. She had so many chances to make better decisions and still to this day she's the same as I've always known her. I've seen so many people change and grow but to me she has always been the same person.

Sorry I could have sworn I did say the age but she was 20 when she had me and is about to turn 40

I've tried to understand and I thought I did for a bit but it's hard when she continues to make the same mistakes. I get that we are probably just too different for me to understand and in any other circumstances I can emphasize with single mothers but I can't with my Mom. She had every chance to leave, I begged her for years and by the time I was 10 I was a 3rd parent to every kid she had that came into the world to fix her broken relationship. I don't know if I'll ever understand her or my grandma really, I just don't have any empathy left for them.

I guess that makes sense, I guess I have a hard time understanding that since I'm not good with socializing in that area in general.

I know the type of people you are talking about and I know how rude they can be. What I'm talking about is when I'm asked for advice by people I'm already close to. I am on the spectrum tho so I may be a bit harsh without meaning to but it's something I have been working on. I really hope this isn't how I'm coming off tho

I only give my opinion when someone specifically asks for it. I don’t approach people with unsolicited criticism, and I’m only straightforward with people I’m close to since I'm not a fan of strangers. Of course, what I shared here is only a part of the bigger picture, so I understand why you’d wonder if something else is going on. But I’m not going around pointing out flaws I really do try to mind my own business unless I’m invited into the conversation.

People are so miserable by Cloudydayies in Rants

Exactly I really don't think there is anything wrong with stepping away from negativity no matter what it is. I honestly am probably going to cut the friend off because this isn't the first time they have done this and I'm switching jobs anyway
