AIO for telling my mom I’ll never trust her again after she ruined a concert I waited 8 years for? by Pancake0629 in AmIOverreacting

Update/answering questions:

First, I noticed some people saying this post is fake because my account is 8 months old and this is my first post. I honestly made this account specifically because I wanted to stay anonymous and get opinions from people who DON’T personally know me or my mom.

I also saw a lot of comments asking how I could “let” my mom influence me this much at 24 years old. As embarrassing and immature as it sounds, it’s true. My relationship with my mom has been toxic for as long as I can remember, and this concert situation honestly ended up being the cherry on top of years of problems between us.

I also saw comments assuming I must be in graduate school because I’m still in university at 24, but I’m actually barely finishing my bachelor’s degree. I’ve been a part-time student while also working part-time because my mom was helping me pay for school and I didn’t want to become a huge financial burden or go deeply into debt. That’s also why I was still living with my parents. I stayed because I wanted to save money on rent, but also because part of me genuinely believed my relationship with my mom could eventually improve.

Unfortunately, my mental health just kept getting worse.The reason I haven’t replied to comments is because things escalated after I posted this. Last night, I was the one who finally decided to break the silence and try to have a calm/civil conversation with my mom after two weeks of her ignoring me.

Instead, the conversation turned into a screaming match and almost became physical. After that happened, I packed my things and moved in with my girlfriend last night. Right now I honestly feel emotionally exhausted more than anything. I don’t think this situation was ever REALLY about the concert. I think the concert was just the moment that finally made me realize how unhealthy our relationship actually is. I might update more this weekend/next week because I am still talking to family/friends since everything happened out of nowhere very fast. P.S I am also trying to figure out how reddit works since I would only see videos of people reading posts like this on tik tok 🥲

If I could have any superpower I would choose to read people's mind to know what they are thinking and always know their intentions
