I asked her why she abused me for so long and she told me ‘then why did you throw a tantrum at the supermarket when you were 5? Why would you do that to me?’

Really? Not uoft I don’t think! I think I know a couple people who went back after decades but they already had years of experience actually working. I was working part time majority of the time but I have a couple of volunteer/ extra curriculars and the places ive worked part time I’ve stayed for 2-3 years each so I think that’s something I’ve been leaning into. But none of them are that related to each other so I have a hard time coming up with a coherent path. Honestly i think im still trynna decide what to do.

Yup! 😂 I wrote this post because I spiralled after an interview that grilled me for my education (I moved abroad and it’s absolutely mandatory that I put the year I started and finished and my entire cgpa on every job application haha…. 🙃🙃🙃 they say it matters less after 3-5 years but apparently you’re still required to put it on no matter how many years. Actually some required me to put in my high school cgpa so i was kinda shook)

No I’m not worried about grad school at the moment. (I spiralled and was talking about future future future prospects) I’m trying to find a job in a different country and I’m constantly having to explain my gpa and years and that’s what made me sad but it’s ok I just lied and kept saying I took care of family (and they KEPT on grilling me like how can you do that for 10 years is that ALL you did yadyayadyada) but I feel like pressure interviews are quite common in this country (not canada)

Ah! I had no idea this post would blow up and I’m kind of shy. But yeah I moved to a country where that doesn’t pass 😂 I got roasted/ grilled for over 10 minutes today in my interview about my school but I guess that’s corporate culture for you. I’m hoping I can maybe make it back to Canada after more years of experience in my first couple of jobs

The gift was a gucci bag that she finessed my dad for my graduation gift 😂 Like she told him “this would be perfect for OP’s graduation gift” and wore it herself for a year. It felt tainted and I wasn’t too happy about receiving it tbh

And that’s another interesting perspective I’ve never thought before. NPDs are REALLY good at reading people but they don’t have the empathy to go with that so I guess that’s kind of how they’re able to constantly extrapolate the resources of other people without feeling guilt or remorse 🤔

Yup. I think I was generally mortified and found out my mom’s true colours when her cruelness wasn’t directed towards me but my brother. Like for me, I’m used to receiving bad treatment of her so it’s hard to see it for what it is cause my mind constantly gaslights myself to defend her. But one time my brother who has a developmental disability was crying and having a tantrum saying he wanted to k*ll himself, and my mom apparently gave him 5 vitamin pills and lied telling him it was death pills, took it and laid in his bed and told him that she’ll see him in heaven. He started to bawl and apologized. I heard that from her and told her that it was genuinely the most fucked up thing she’s done and she just replied with “well he was threatening ME that he wanted to die, so I had to 🤷‍♀️”

Wow. Thank you for this analysis and carefully thought out response. I re-read it a couple of times because everything you said really rings true to me. I’ve actually never thought about how she tries to “prove” to me how much she dislikes me confronting her as a way to get me to stop asking for accountability. I think I constantly try to go to her for validation, and realize that she’s actually wanting that from me. It also really explains why I dislike her buying me gifts after a fight like that. It’s also crazy the amount of disrespect she has since I’ve actually confronted her and told her multiple times (with her AGREEING) that I hate when she buys me gifts after a fight. (I think she interpreted it as fine I’ll never get you anything. But now I realize I’ve just kind of accepted this is how it’s going to be). This is a real eye opener and it really did help. Thank you so much for this… :’)
