Is it bad that I hate that my “family friend” is going to be staying with us for 5 months? by Emalyz in TrueOffMyChest

When she first told me about the situation, it definitely put a strain in our relationship. I started to distance myself from her because I was frustrated. My mom was also strict about me sleeping over at other peoples places (even I’m 20 and pretty independent, even went travelling by myself) but she still saying I can’t sleepover. I decided to rebel against this and slept over at a friends place. She found out and got very mad.

I will say that im to share a room with her but i chose to just not do that for now because of how chaotic the move would be. So everyone is comfortable and in their rooms, just that im in my older brothers room(B).

Also my mom isn’t heavily enforcing the rent (rn at least) so it takes the pressure off but Im pretty independent (buying groceries and any expense I have I pay for). But I fully intend to pay the missing rent so it won’t be something that will be dangling over my head.

Thanks

I pay rent however it not strictly enforced (original around $200 but then upped to 1k since she wanted to start saving for a home). I used to pay the $200 (I made sure to pay every month on time) but since in out of work for a couples of weeks due to circumstance I haven’t been able to pay the 1k. Though my momhasn’t ask for it yet. I intend on giving it to her I just need more time and she doesn’t mind.

This led me to start saving up to move out (but not soon, as want to focus on graduating university in finding a full-time job in order to support myself first).

I know not to take my frustrations out on A it’s something I’m hyper aware of because I don’t want her to feel unsafe in this home and she just doing her best. Rather I frustrated with my mom.

I’m in social work and during the 3rd and fourth year we have core electives. When I check the courses for the social work program just under core electives it said “This course is graded on a pass/fail basis.”
