Family: Question: Why is my brother's wife doing this to me?

Question: Why is my brother's wife doing this to me?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 01:16 PM PDT

My brother's wife has large boobs. She likes to show a LOT of cleavage. Strangely, my brother is OK with that. At our parent's home, she will bend over in front of me and say "Don't look at my boobs". How could I not look at them when they are 6 inches away from my face? I just say "OK". That is really strange behavior. Other times she will bend over in from of me to give me something and then say "Did something come up". I always truthfully tell her no. I have NO sexual interest in my brother's wife EVER. I wonder why she is acting this way. Is she flirting with me or possibly just teasing me? Anyone have any ideas why she is doing this to me?

Question: My parents said that I can't babysit, how do I change their minds?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 01:13 PM PDT

My parents said that I'm not responsible enough, even though I AM very responsible, I do all of my chores, I clean my room, but they still won't let me. how to I change their minds? EDIT: I'm eleven.

Question: How do I cope with future step kids bad behavior?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 12:54 PM PDT

My fiancé has two children from his previous marriage. The oldest is a good kid for the most part other than he interrupts conversations constantly and always wants me to buy him things and acts like he's in charge. However the youngest constantly throws tantrums and does not listen and punches screams and kicks her brother and dad. They are 5 and 8 and have over a thousand toys and hundreds of clothes. What should I do? They do not listen to their dad.

Question: I want to go live with my dad?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 12:04 PM PDT

Please bear with me as this is going to be a lot of information at once. I'm 15, turning 16 in a month. My mom recently moved in with her boyfriend (who verbally expresses his hatred of me on he daily to my face & is old enough to be her dad). My mom has always been messy, leaving her trash sitting out and leaving her dirty plates in the sink for weeks. She now leaves rotten food for weeks at a time on the counter, lets the dishes pile up for a month before she finally forces me to do them, and she expects me to clean up her trash and every mess she makes. I have a weak stomach and every time I've had to clean up her rotten food I've thrown up. I'm sick of it, my mom and her boyfriend treat me like their slave and I'm embarassed when people come over because of how gross the house is! I do my best to clean up but if I did everything in the house it would take hours and hours! On top of that, my mom doesn't provide for me. I buy all of my own school supplies and groceries and pay for my own food, I never get birthday or Christmas presents from her, and she makes me pay to have a phone. I'm 15 and I can't get a job yet, and it's so hard to juggle school and taking care of myself and my 11 year old step brother (who also hates me). My mother and I don't get along at ALL and she steals my anxiety pills and either takes them herself or sells them then makes me pay to get them refilled. I want to go live with my dad permanently but I'm not sure how to approach the situation. Help?

Question: Why Are My Parents are always jerks To me?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 11:47 AM PDT

So Vid con is in 5 days and ever since i asked to go on a trip to vid con with my parents p.s i'm only 14, they been so rude about me because i wont do simple things that to me are not going into full fledged arguments,like i did not put one dish from my room into the sink or because i did not vacuum my room and today it got bad i mean BAD! i forgot to vacuum so then they started screaming at me and told me to move out basically despite like earlier i'm only 14. i still have no idea how to fix the issue they vacuumed it for me then when i woke up and started screaming at me. all because i said."hi mom." why is that because of vid con they are always meaner than usual and more strict out of nowhere. last time i will mention i'm a 14 year old female.

Question: Is this okay?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 11:16 AM PDT

I have four grandkids, three are under the age of 13 and my eldest is 18. I took them shopping today 'spoil' them today and I bought my three grandchildren some little treats but I let my oldest grandchild pay for her own things as I feel it teaches her responsibility. I do feel guilty as I spent money on my three grandchildren and not my eldest, but do you think I did the right thing?

Question: Let my dad know I want to cut my own hair?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 11:14 AM PDT

I'm in college but I still live at home. I recently started buzzing my hair, so I got my dad to do it (he cuts my bro's hair and did mine when i was little). I've been wanting to cut it myself since I like to keep it tight and he's busy some so I have to wait until he can or feels like it. Sometimes he also misses some hairs (not overly noticeable but enough to bother me some) Plus it just seems like a good skill to have. But I don't want to like hurt his feelings or make it weird. I'm probably overthinkng it I know.

Question: I feel so sad and alone!?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 11:13 AM PDT

I always have been this way though I don't know what to do anymore I feel like I tried everything and nothing works I tried to go to California but didn't workout I tried living with my grandma I tried getting jobs but nothing makes me happy I'm such a quiet boring person with anxiety when I went to california my cousin always looked bored to death with me I know I'm not outgoing and all that fun but I just can't help it this is the way i am I came back to this he'll hole of a home with my parents that do drugs and my dad is a asshole that beats my mom when he's high I stay in bed all the time because I figure what is the point I i don't fit in with anyone I have nothing I'm 19 I feel like I'm at the lowest point of my life honestly I tried to be strong for so long and seems nothing is working at all I never knew this was going to be my life I feel so sad and I have no one to talk to everyone has given up on me because I say I'm going to do something but never go through I guess they realize that I'm just a negative person . Everyone lost hope in me

Question: I'm 15 and I have two older sisters who are 20 and 22 and my parents favor them. They do favor them. What should I do?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 09:37 AM PDT

- When I talk to them they just say "that's ridiculous" - Literlwlt everyone sees it - I'm like a forgotten child - My dad like my one sister and my mom likes my oldest sister.

Question: My big brother saw me naked how to handle it?

Question: I saw my 16-year-old sister naked, how to deal with this trauma?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 09:07 AM PDT

We slept in the same room and when I opened the door she was in her panties and I was scared and she said "no, okay, I'm your sister, you do not have to be like this".

Question: I'm a freshman in highschool. I have to share room with 10 & 5 year old boys, and 8 yr old girl. Is this right and what should I do?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 08:52 AM PDT

Also my mom lets me go in her own room for privacy but the other parent dosent agree that I should go in there for privacy because I will "take something." They always play loud games and stuff and when they aren't in the room, they are outside playing and I have to be outside with them. I never have space anywhere else I go because in my other home, it's the same way. What can I do honestly ?

Question: How to change father/daughter relationship?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 07:52 AM PDT

so here s the thing. My dad has never been a conformist, he s a ******** who will say what he thinks about people or what they are into and a bigoted professor too who thinks he is God. My brother shares Dad s interest in science, whereas I have found peace and acceptance within the church. I know my Dad loves me but I feel the need to stay as far away from him as possible. Am 37 and it has always been like this wit me feeling guilty and ashamed and like I am the family black sheep.

Question: Am i selfish for Being upset right now?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 07:25 AM PDT

So.. Yesterday was my sisters birthday. The whole family came. And we had a really nice time. But then when she opened her present (she got grom my mom) and she got a laptop worth 500.- this really made me sad. Because. When we celebreted my birthday. I got a giftcard for like 25 euros. Like there is a difference tho. My sister is 12 and i am 20. I live on my own (struggeling) but yeah. I feel selfish for feeling this way. Like i love my sister so Much. She means a lot to me. But i'm really sad my mom didn't think this over. Like okay i was happy with the giftcard. But i dont think its fair. But this has always been this way. My sisters get everything they want. And if i'm struggeling to eat i can even get 5 euro's from her. And it really makes me so sad. Am i selfish for this? Or would you feel the same?

Question: What is he up to? What do you call this?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 06:56 AM PDT

He keeps stalking me. He tells everybody about me. He ask about me. He rides by everyday. He stares at me everyday.

Question: So I feel homesick since I'm always home alone and now that school ended I have no where to go but to stay home.?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 06:41 AM PDT

My parents work everyday from 5 am to 11 pm when I'm usually sleeping. I am not allowed to go outside and only stay inside unless I was with my parents. Worst of all this whole thing of me staying home is bad for my health since all I eat is pre-heated meals since my mom isn't home to cook something for me. What should I do? Im tired of this non-sense

Question: What should i do, my parents hate me?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 05:51 AM PDT

It's not just my feeling, it's a fact. i live with them and the way they treat me says it all. It's awkward between me and them. My mom never quits comparing me to my older sister and praising her all the time. My dad always points out the worst of me to everyone and he sides with my borther. They both humiliate me all the time. I don't ever feel like i can open up to my parents. All they do is judge. They hate my favourite band just because i love them. This band means so much to me and my parents always trash talk about them, call me absurd for listening to their songs and stuff. No matter what i do it's never good enough. It's even worse now because i'm the only one left with them, the others are in boarding school. I have a good relationship with my sister but for some reason, my parents genuinely believe that i hate her and I'm jealous of her. Like wtf?? I dont even know where they got all these from. Lately, we don't talk a lot anymore. My parents work hard so they're barely home. I dont eat any meals with them. Like our relationship is so awkward and distant, i feel so uncomfortable in my own home. I really don't like this. I make a tiny mistake and my parents are so ready to tell me off all night, bringing back all the mistakes in my entire life just to prove their point that i'm a disgrace and a fu*king burden. I'm moving away in like 3 months anyway but i feel like I can't take one more day with them. I'm 15 turning 16 in a month btw.

Question: The holiday this weekend is so hurtful to people like me who don't have a father in their life. How can I devote this weekend to ignoring it?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 04:53 AM PDT

It hurts me so much to be constantly reminded "Father's Day is this weekend" as it just rubs it in my face. I am so ******* mad right now and my parents both for not having my Dad in my life. My mother alienates me from him and my Dad makes zero effort to fight her. They are both failures. How can I ignore the holiday this weekend? I am 15 and so ******* mad right now.

Question: I just one peoples opinion on what this seems. I got confused/scare on how my mom responded, because I'm the only one helping 247 pls read?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 04:16 AM PDT

Please read, I couldn't fit the whole story here so I wrote it in my notes then posted on tumblr. First story is from the other night, then the second story is from last night https://notestoryonline.tumblr.com/post/161866811473 How my mom is responding doesn't make sense. Once I told her I was holding a baby I believe it was a boy I guess she thought I was referring to her having another baby. She's like "I have all my girls & u will be the one to have the boy" I believe she said "you're probably going to get pregnant soon" (I'm a virgin w/ no boyfriend). She's always making comments when I don't feel good she'll be "don't worry once u have a baby u feel better" then shes always saying how I'm going to have five kids, since I'm done w/ school before I finish shes "ur going have kids soon" or my sister was saying how I'm going to be 18 & my moms like BABY, but then she's like "no in 10 years u have one" I'll be 25, that's around the same age my mom had me (25 on 26). She always says for my last sister "your always the baby" or "ur always going to be the baby no matter" & "ur (or) my the last child the last born". When something happend a few weeks ago I said to her please no more kids, shes like "what are you crazy?" She's always saying when she's a grandmother how she'll always be there unlike her mother but then she jokes saying "I'll be far away". My mom is 42, has a belly button hernia, popping/cracking painful bones. She cares for her sick father, my two sisters/dogs

Question: My Mom is alcoholic and I am embarrassed when my friends come over and see her drunk. How do I get them not to tell their parents?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 02:16 AM PDT

I'm worried their parents won't let them be my friend anymore if they know my Mom is an alcoholic since alcoholism is passed down to future generations.

Question: Oh the pain, Father's Day is this weekend and I have no Dad. How do I stop feeling so sad for myself?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 02:14 AM PDT

I don't want to go through life playing victim but this ******* holiday is just a reminder that my Dad does not want to be in my life ever since he left my mother for another women in 2008. It hurts every year at this time so much.

Question: I need help?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 01:51 AM PDT

I have anxiety, and I don't feel comfortable going outside of the house. But, my parents are forcing me to travel outside of the country, and it's stressing me a lot. How can I convince them to let me stay home? ;-;

Question: What should I do? Is there anything I can do that will help?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 12:44 AM PDT

I had a baby a week ago. Before that I had my toddler and I loved her I loved our life together. I loved that I could get out of the house and go do things. I loved that we could have fun and I had money. I was stupid and got pregnant when I didn't plan on it my boyfriend and I decided on adoption but then my mother kept telling me how much I'd regret it and close friends kept saying how I couldn't seperate my kids they were siblings and had a right to grow up together. I found out I was having a boy and got so excited I always wanted a son after my daughter but 6 years after not 2. Everything seemed fine until I brought this thing home and realized I can't spend any actual time with my daughter, I can't go anywhere or do anything, I don't get sleep, I don't get alone time, I'll never fulfill my dreams with 2 kids cuz there will never be time or money to. I hate my life and I hate this baby. I feel no love towards it I think it's ugly I don't care if when people tell me he's cute or when doctors say he's doing great. I hate hearing about him. I hate holding him. I just want my baby back. My daughter and my time with just her. I finally told my boyfriend how I felt today cuz he got angry that I wasn't talking or eating and he said I just sounded like a depressed robot so I told him why and he said well I don't know what you want me to do cuz we made our choices and it's too late now just gotta deal with it. My life is going to be **** isn't it?

Question: Partner Troubles?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 12:11 AM PDT

My boyfriend lives across the country from his family. My family leaves about 20 minutes away from him currently. This evening I told him I was going to go to lunch with my dad and brother on Saturday for Father's Day. He told me it was "weird" that I didn't invite him. Meanwhile, he is coming with us to a concert on Father's Day with my whole family. I got upset because I felt that he was trying to make me feel guilty about hanging out with my dad and brother without him. He said he wants to get closer to my family if we are going to get more serious and wants to be included since his family is so far away. What do you think? Do I have a reason to be upset or should I be more understanding? Thank you! Also, I feel like I should be able to have some alone time with my family without him.

Question: Why is my dad always letting me and my family down?

Posted: 16 Jun 2017 12:11 AM PDT

I don't want anyone to feel sorry for me. I know many have it way worse. But I just can't comprehend my dad's actions. For starters, he throws a tantrum about once a day (swearing, slamming doors, etc.) and there's this constant anxiety in the air when he's around, because everyone knows he's about to throw another fit. Then about 2 years ago, he was laid off from his job. He sat around the house for over a year while my mother struggled to make ends meet. He made no effort to find another job. Then one day one of his friends was nice enough to call him and ask if he wanted a job helping him. Fast forward to today, he gets the idea that he wants to own his own franchise of a business. His credit was terrible so my mom was nice enough to borrow the $150,000 for him to start it. Its been about 3 months and he just told my mom that he's giving up on the business (which will ruin her credit) just because he doesnt want to do it anymore. Can anyone tell me why he's always letting us down?

Question: How can I convince my mom to let me be in cheer?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 10:52 PM PDT

For a little background, my mom thinks that whatever she says is right and it's hard to convince her that she's wrong, even if you show her right in front of her face (but she's an amazing mom don't think otherwise!!). I would even just settle for gymnastics and work my way up. Usually my mom is worried abt transportation but I can find people to take me. Please help me so I can know how to convince her!

Question: How to deal with knowing that someone you loved all your life doesn't care about you?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 10:27 PM PDT

It's not possible to describe what I am feeling now. Just yesterday my grandmother told me very clearly, that I either go to live with my father or I may not expect anything from her. My father sees only himself, he has serious problems with gambling and doesn't work and she knows that. It'snot that I wouldn't help him if necessary, but living with him is out of question, besides, I can't leave my mom. He lives in an apartment that belongs to my grandmother and before moving in my mother invested a large sum in it (when she and my father still lived together). We now live with my other grandmother and my moms brother who also desn't work and just sits on our shoulders. We have nothing of our own. Visiting my fathers mother was always enjoyable, because for the first seven years of my live I lived at her place and always considered it my only home and those short moments helped me to go on in life, until now. It hurts so much to know that she cares about my father (she is a mother I understand that) and not a bit about me or my future.

Question: I isolated myself?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 08:59 PM PDT

I never expected this.. I would be in her house... I'm literally panicking... What do I do in the house?

Question: My parents are fighting all the time and it's messing me up?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 08:29 PM PDT

My parents will just stand there and yell and scream at each other. A lot of times it ends with one of them storming out. They've been doing this for about 3 years now and it's getting worse. Often they'll stay up very late, until 2 or 3 in the morning, yelling at each other - which means I get really tired because obviously I can't sleep either. Plus they come in to me and start talking about how awful the other one is and how mean they're being and all that. Our school doesn't have counselors or anything so there's really no one I can talk to or anything. We go to church but they're big on how I'm a kid and should just not worry about it. But my parents yell at me if I don't want to be involved because "I'm 16, I should know what's going on." But they won't actually listen to anything I say because they're both convinced it's all the other person's fault. I don't think they're going to divorce, but this is really screwing up my life. What can I do? I'm not allowed to leave the house even, because most of this happens when I'm supposed to be eating dinner and getting ready for bed or in bed. It's never about anything concrete either. It's all stuff like "you don't listen to me well enough" or "you snapped at me" or "you said I said something I didn't." Stupid stuff that you can't ever prove right or wrong. Yeah, I'm not an idiot. CPS doesn't even take kids away when the parents are on drugs around here half the time, they're not going to take a kid away just because her parents fight a lot, they're basically not going to do anything unless I'm being either beaten or raped. The thing is, even when I get upset with what's going on, they're both very sympathetic as long as they can blame the other person. Like it's ok for me to be upset, but it's all the other parent's fault that I'm upset.

Question: How can I get my mom to treat me like an adult ?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 07:55 PM PDT

I really want to be treated like an adult because I'm 17. She doesn't like when I shower everyday because it's a waste of water and bad for your skin. She won't let me get a queen sized bed because apparently it's too expensive. Like I'm tired of being treated like a two year old. She won't even let me wear my bikini that I wore last summer. How can I convince her to let me be a free adult ?

Question: Comfort me, I'm scared?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 06:38 PM PDT

My mother asked me to get milk from the dark basement. Before I moved, when I was about 8, I had seen dark figures on our porch and in our driveway. The day later my car's window was broken into and a bunch of valuable stuff was taken. I think it was due to my dad being ****** up on drugs and owing someone money. After I started shaking, my mother started yelling at me. I'm in my room at my desktop right now. Comfort me please, I'm scared

Question: What should I do?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 06:37 PM PDT

So, my grandmother is around 62. My grandfather is about 65. They've been married since my mom was about 1. Recently, my grandmother confided in me that my grandfather may be in love with someone else. She also confided in me that she knows the feeling and "look" of that because she was in love with someone while she was married to my grandfather when they were younger. Now that I'm in this weird predicament (of my own doing and regretting it), she keeps getting me to help her look for evidence because I'm more tech savvy than everyone in the family and she trusts me to keep a secret. However, I'm getting frustrated by all this secrecy. I know if I say anything to the rest of my family my grandmother will NEVER forgive me. She is my mother figure as well. What should I do?

Question: What do I about my daughter smoking pot?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 05:26 PM PDT

She s 22 and lives with her "boyfriend". Everytime I go over to their place, it smells of pure weed. Cannot stand it y all. Drives me insane. Not to mention after they ve had their "session" and are all highed up, they keep laughing about things and acting like everything some kind of a dang joke or something. I cannot stand it y all. Drives me nuts. That stuff will cause demonic possession and it makes me heave.

Question: Is it okay that my mother unapologetically says that she doesn t respect me?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 05:15 PM PDT

I honestly love my mother but there are a variety of thing that bother me in regard to her. She is immature and gets upset over little things. Today she grabbed my arm after I disagreed with her about something unimportant and while laughing, she proceeded to act as if she was going to bite it. I said "no, let go, mom stop, don t bite me" and I was clearly distressed. She thinks it s her right to touch me and said "I brought you into this world and I can take you out" along with placing her mouth on my arm. I was squirming and trying to free my arm from her grip. I do admit that I kicked her (not very hard) and used my hand to push her head away from my arm. I stopped after she threatened to burn all my books (although this was likely an empty threat). She still managed to make me feel guilty afterwards by saying that I was kicking and pushing her. She left to get dinner and when she got back she surprisingly wasn t in a bad mood, which she normally would be after an event like that, and we hugged. I apologizes and said, "I m sorry for kicking and pushing you, it s just that I didn t like what you were doing and it made me feel like you don t respect me when you didn t listen". She replied unapologetically, "I don t respect you, and you can t take a joke". Should parent respect their children or do they have a right as a parent to do as they please?Tips are appreciated. This isn t the first s time she s done something like this and my siblings have had similar experiences.

Question: Family Problem-----School is out for the summer but I feel so much pain about Father's Day. How do I cheer up through Sunday?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 05:03 PM PDT

I don't have a Dad. I have a father but he doesn't love me because he is alcoholic and only loves alcohol. So Mom moved away with me and my sisters. Last year on Father's Day I hurt so much I wanted to kill myself. I am 14 and the only son in the family. People told me just to spend the day with other fathers like my maternal grandfather or uncles. That made it worse as I felt shame for picking a substitute father. The worst part is my Dad's family has their annual family reunion Father's Day weekend. So not only do I have the reminder of Father's Day with no Dad but even worse I am not allowed at his family's reunion because he is an alcoholic. They seldom contact us anymore other then a Christmas Card from my grandmother. My mother says I cannot see my Dad anymore though as he might hurt my feelings by being drunk. How do I not be in so much pain Sunday? It helps me here to write but I hate Sunday's holiday and this weekend knowing I am not allowed to be in my Dad's family anymore. Worst part is I have cousins I don't know anymore and I have no cousins on my Mom's side (she has one brother but he has no kids). How do I not be so sad? How do I not hurt myself (not that I would do suicide)? How do I not let the hurt continue through end of June. I hate this time of year and hate some of Christmas since I am banned from my Dad's family because Dad loves alcohol and not me.

Question: How do I apologize to my mom?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 05:03 PM PDT

I'm not really an emotional person, and I've never really had a close relationship with my parents. I would give her a big hug, but I'm too embarrassed and uncomfortable to do that. I'm a 13 year old girl and I got into a fight with her about my grades. She just wants the best for me, and I was too stubborn to realize that. How do I say I'm sorry without being awkward?

Question: I just opened the Christmas card that my dad gave me last Christmas and it made me feel sorry for him because he's illiterate.?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 04:39 PM PDT

He can barely write he wrote "From Dad" and it looked like a preschooler wrote it HAHA it's sad. It makes me feel sorry for him but it's also kind of funny. Don't feel sorry for him he is a bad person. You guys probably have no idea what I'm talking about. XD

Question: My Dad just shared that my alcoholic uncle is in rehab. When one gets help is it true they usually relapse several times before being sober?

This is my Mom's brother so it is not someone I see that often (my Mom died). It came up as there is a family reunion and he noted the uncle's family was not coming because of this.

Question: My parents put a tracking device on my phone so I can't hang out with my boyfriend?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 04:18 PM PDT

I am 17 years old, I have a boyfriend and my parents don't know about him. We have been talking for about a year now. I don't tell my parents about relationships because they are extremely protective and not accepting of any love life I might have. Last time they found out I was even remotely talking to someone they took away all of my electronics and I was grounded. Believe me I wish I had parents who would let me hang out with my boyfriend and be happy. I am depressed because today I found out my dad put a tracking device on my phone out of suspicion that I might be hanging out with a boy (which is true) I wish I didn't have to lie to them but they take such drastic measures, I'm not sure what to do anymore. Should I just tell them I have a boyfriend and see what happens? I would rather just say "I'm going out with __" and it would be fine as long as I'm back by regular curfew but I feel like they won't even try to accept that even though this is the time people experiment with relationships and stuff and I am really in love, I really don't think she has a limit to when you can be in love so please don't say I don't know what love is. I'm just really unsure of what to do anymore. They are ruining my life.

Question: My son Scott Is gay. What should I do?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 04:08 PM PDT

I am a loving father of my 2 sons. Scott and Kevin Hilman. I came home from work one day and walked into Scott's room. He was ******* a man. We are a very christian family. God dos not allow this act. I am embarrassed and kicked Scott out of the house and told Kevin to never talk to him. Should I allow him back into the house? I don't know what to do.

Question: Click to read. Take the time to read then please answer, I'm scared because I'm the only one helping that I lost my own life. Begging pls?

Please read, I couldn't fit the whole story here so I wrote it in my notes then posted on tumblr. First story is from the other night, then the second story is from last night https://notestoryonline.tumblr.com/post/161866811473 How my mom is responding doesn't make sense. Once I told her I was holding a baby I believe it was a boy I guess she thought I was referring to her having another baby. She's like "I have all my girls & u will be the one to have the boy" I believe she said "you're probably going to get pregnant soon" (I'm a virgin w/ no boyfriend). She's always making comments when I don't feel good she'll be "don't worry once u have a baby u feel better" then shes always saying how I'm going to have five kids, since I'm done w/ school before I finish shes "ur going have kids soon" or my sister was saying how I'm going to be 18 & my moms like BABY, but then she's like "no in 10 years u have one" I'll be 25, that's around the same age my mom had me (25 on 26). She always says for my last sister "your always the baby" or "ur always going to be the baby no matter" & "ur (or) my the last child the last born". When something happend a few weeks ago I said to her please no more kids, shes like "what are you crazy?" She's always saying when she's a grandmother how she'll always be there unlike her mother but then she jokes saying "I'll be far away". My mom is 42, has a belly button hernia, popping/cracking painful bones. She cares for her sick father, my two sisters/dogs

Question: Relationship advice?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 03:18 PM PDT

I am 32 years old, and have been with my boyfriend for 13 years. I have 4 younger siblings, and my mom is a single mother. My mother doesn t work or drive, so growing up I was depended on a lot for transportation and financial needs. I was basically like a second mother growing up. Now that my sisters and brothers are all over 18 they still live with my mom, but contribute hardly anything to help out with the house. I am pretty much moved out, but still depended on a lot. I pay all thier utilities and a one car payment, plus my own stuff. Sometime my boyfriend gets upset that I don t come home after work. I ll go to my moms house to help run errands and stuff. However most weekends my boyfriend and I spend together. Sometimes I feel like I m being pulled in two different directions, and it s starting to break me down. Any advice????

Question: I m having problems with my fiancé what should i do?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 02:59 PM PDT

Ok first I don t want to make it seem as if I m ranting because I m not I just need advice on how to handle a situation! My bf of 11 years now fiancé has a lazy good for nothing father that just uses him and talks bad about him behind his back and a mother who every payday calls and asks for money his parents has treated him very poorly since before I started dating him the thing is that any time they need something he jumps right on it and tends to their every wish and command meanwhile me and his 1 year old daughter has to wait for him to do the little small things! I hate confronting him about him enabling his parents because it always leads to arguments and me feeling like sh$t because I opened my big mouth what should I do? How do I go on knowing that this really isn t a healthy relationship? Or what he s doing isn t healthy I should say?

Question: Why do my parents think I'm a disappointment to the family?

Posted: 15 Jun 2017 02:53 PM PDT

I am 12 years old with straight A's and my parents always say I am a disappointment to the family. They mean this by grades. Straight A's aren't bad but when I have a temporary b in a class I get grounded. on top of that I am not aloud to play electronics during the week. I have to go to tutoring because my parents think I'm dumb. I basically have no outside life besides school because of my parents. I was wondering if anyone could help me figure this out
