starting to think it’s time to move out 🙃
#moi#personal#my mom seems to be under the impression that i don’t have a job because i’m lazy and picky and my standards are way too high#when the reason i don’t have a job is because i’m actually trying to get a job in my industry. or even ADJACENT to my industry.#and nobody will talk to me.#like oh yeah mom you’re totally right that i should be settling for whatever shitty ass job pays $13/hr (but won’t pay overtime)#instead of trying to put my degree(s) to use#and since you want to dig into the little savings i have why don’t you just start charging interest on all the money spent on college?#clearly it was all a waste and i never should have gone to begin with#because now you’re constantly harping on me to take whatever shitty job i can get#sorry i was under the impression that you wanted me to go to college to get a GOOD job#if it was all un-fucking-necessary and you just wanted me to flip burgers then why didn’t you just say so from the very start?#like jfc i’m doing my best. sorry i’m not into the idea of paying $400 for a glorified networking event or whatever.#you see that’s kind of a lot of money to spend when you don’t fucking have a job and nobody’s hiring anyway.#did i SAY any of this? no. because i’m really trying to not be a petty asshole.#and because i am actually trying to be a real adult even if she doesn’t fucking think so#what i said was ‘i don’t want to think of you as my landlord. i know it’s semantics but it’s important to me.’#‘can we say that we put that money towards specific expenses instead of calling it rent?’#instead of pulling up monthly expenses she printed out A Masterlist Of Every Single Category We’ve Spent Money On In The Last Half Decade#and flippantly was like ‘you can call it whatever you want you just need to pay me.’#and then she got mad when i suggested we look at actual monthly expenses and said i was trying to give her homework#like jfc i didn’t say a word about the fact that she wants money#but oh no god forbid that money goes to actual expenses instead of just vanishing into her pocket#she always does this thing where she tells me i’m throwing a tantrum or i’m too volatile and she ‘always has to walk on eggshells’#and it just feels really gross and manipulative. i know i get mad easily and i can be dramatic when i’m upset#but she’s just constantly acting like i’m blowing up over nothing#like i can tell her explicitly ‘this thing you just said was offensive and hurtful and i’m upset by this’#and she accuses me of trying to ‘police her feelings’#and then she demands that i stop showing emotions on my face#i’m getting really fucking tired of this shit
