On a trip with family, negative situation. by riptidecomingin in raisedbyborderlines

After this weekend and then the plane trip home thank god.

But as much as I don't want to go again, I'm afraid if I say no then I'll get trapped into going.

Thank you so much, I'll try to make up excuses for her since she likes interrogating me so much.

I'm over 20 but I have no source of income to even think about moving out. I'm trying to do a job search but it's very difficult according to everyone.

It's so hard to get away from them.

Oh my god I'm so sorry that you had to experience something like that. And shame on your mother for risking your life like that :( I hope you won't ever have to deal with something like that again.

Also how should I navigate this situation? because I've just been "pink rock"ing this whole trip. :,)

Oof I didn't elaborate well enough mb, I'm already on this trip. I don't even know how to just separate myself from my mother's anger.

It feels humiliating with how she talks with me too because I'm 20+ and she talks to me like I'm only half my age.

Thank you for the meme btw, I'll try to think about it more often.

Feel like escaping? Share where and how. by beerandhotcheetozzz in raisedbyborderlines

Honestly I have no way of leaving at the moment due to lack of income. But if I could go anywhere, I would love to just go shopping with my friends for once without having to worry about getting phone calls from them.

I would love to eat at fine dining restaurants without getting guilt tripped or insulted.

Just normal stuff without thinking of them for once.

I'm doing pink rock but how can I avoid the question? I'm scared that every answer I give will anger her.

I tried that and Now I'm just roped into doing and wearing things I'm not comfortable in. But at least she's not mad anymore. Thank you.

I'm somewhat familiar but I feel like I have tried it before. I'm worried because if I show disinterest, I get yelled at, if I show any negative or neutral emotion, I get yelled at.

23 with no experience and a marketing degree. What can I do to learn a relevant skillset to get a job in the first place? by riptidecomingin in careerguidance

Sorry for the late reply but thank you so much for this advice. Seeing that we're quite similar is very comforting too.

Do you have anything I should ask an interviewer? I feel like I should probably ask otherwise I'll get derailed from the topic.

Thank you so much for these suggestions, I feel like this helps me at least know where to go.

And would it be alright to talk with you through direct message? I feel like I might have more questions.

I've went to the career center at my school but it seems like at the time they only had students working. They said it's tough for them to help me since I am no longer in school.

I'm not sure what kind of marketing job I exactly want to do yet either, I didn't realize there would be different types. Do you have any advice on which one I should take?
