I don’t know what it is but my mom and I butt heads all the time and sometimes it’s not good. Sometimes I attribute it to us being so much alike; after all she is my mother. And then there are times when I see how we’re totally different from each other and I think that creates the clash. I guess it wouldn’t be such a big deal if we didn’t work together.
Don’t get me wrong, I love my momma very much. She’s a strong woman who has overcome so much in life. But I wish this bickering which turns to fighting which turns into no good would just stop. I’m tired of doing it and I really just want it to end. But how do I do that?
I don’t want her to get the impression that I do love her because I do. I definitely don’t want her to get the impression that I don’t like her because I do. But sometimes it’s frustrating to deal with her sometimes. I feel like she doesn’t listen to me; she hears what she wants to hear. I find her to be difficult because of her non-listening habits too. I also feel like she depends on me for a lot of things which is hard because I want to help but I always don’t want to help. If I don’t help though everything will go to the shizz.
If you’re reading this then you’re probably calling me a brat or self fish, but I don’t like troubleshooting computer problems over the phone at least once a week and if I don’t know the answer then I get told I’m not trying. “All that time you spend on the computer you can’t help me fix this.” Well, no because I’m not really into computer repair and I don’t really know what’s going on on your screen. Or my favorite is when I give her step by step instructions and she doesn’t follow them and she has to end up coming back to me for help. It’s just frustrating sometimes and it’s hard for me to deal with it.
Things have gotten progressively better over the years but it’s still bad and I really don’t know what to do.
