I m currently going to school full time and I m also studying for three important tests for my career but, my Aunt and Cousin are making it very difficult for me. They always blow up my phone calling me non stop and asking them to help them out. They both talk bad about me. when I don t answer their phone call they get upset with me and it s taking a toll on me. Is it rude of me to block them on my phone? should I explain to them that I won t be able to talk to them because I m really focusing on my going to school for my career and after block them?

im 16 years old and i have 80's and 90' marks im going to be a senior this September. im not very rebellious . But i live with a toxic family where my mom  constantly calls me names and ridicule me . she does not believe in mental health we have had Therapy and she still is the same . she believes because we are a black family emotions dont matter . i need some help . i went behind her back and signed my working papers but i dont know how im going to work without her knowing or how to notify her about it .  

My mom is in the ER and she has a kidney stone. They are not allowing me to come in so I was going to leave to get coffee and come back. I'm afraid to because there are limited spaces in the ER parking lot and I am afraid I will not get one when I come back. They put her on IV fluids right now. Should I come back?

I'm genuinely happy living with my parents but I know that if I want to be truly independent woman I need to able to stand on own two feet. I also think I think I have live alone before moving with my partner or marriage, right? I know my parents are going guilt trip me into staying but I eventually have to go one day.

So I'm 18, my brother is 22. Ever since online classes started for me (around 3 months ago), he started coming into my room every 30 minutes or so, throwing my stuff around or slapping me (gotta clarify, he doesn't slap me hard, it's just his way of annoying me, however it can sometimes leave light bruises too). It's gotten so bad that today was the first time I shouted at him to stop after he grabbed me by the foot and almost made me fall off my chair. He said multiple times that he does that out of boredom (he graduated 2 years ago) and that I'm supposed to find him a hobby. I really hate what he's doing. I keep telling him to stop and go away. I feel like I have little to no privacy anymore and it's taking a toll on me emotionally. If it continues like this, I will only scream at him louder and louder to stop. What can I do?

Should I listen to my parents and marry someone they bring?? But I loved a muslim being from a conservative Hindu family .. he gave me soo much love that I didn't get from my parents..  should I see my happiness.. or our parents happiness.. my parents never gave me love..but he loves his parents very much.. how do I convince our parents.. what should I choose my happiness or my parents

It is not like my kids are going to be with my sister alone or anything but I am wondering at family events do I need to refuse to go when this sister is there or is that just punishing the kids to get at my sister? I have no relationship with this sister as she is in her late 20's and bullies like a school age kid on a playground. She is not violent though when though she was as a teen. She even was arrested for assault when a minor. My folks failed to discipline her as they were so busy with my brother who had drug issues and serious criminal behavior (he has grown up and is actually fine as an adult). 

I'm living with a man who has a 23 year old son who graduated from college. I think it's nice for fathers and sons to bond and have a good relationship but my boyfriend's son comes over to our house every weekend and stays over to sleep. The apartment where we live is mine and It's small. I only have one room so his son sleeps in the living room. I think his son should visit his dad but not stay over. It's been almost six months that he stays here part-time. When I told my boyfriend that his son needed to find his own place, he started crying. I'm not joking!!! My boyfriend seems to be happy having his son sleep here. I don't think his son has friends or a life, except a girlfriend that he sees every now and then. And one day my boyfriend told me his son needed to "live" his life, not get settled down any time soon. Another thing is that he has 2 more sons and he never sees them. It seems like the 23 year old is his "favorite" because he's with him most of the time, while he lets months pass before visiting the others. Will he eventually let him go or will this continue for years to come? I'm worried.

This has bothered me for a few years. My dad has occasionally "mouthed-off" and said things like "I wish I never married her" (my mom) or "she hates me and just wishes I would die." I don't think he realizes how much this upsets my brothers, sister, and I. Even two years later when my parents are having fun together, I think back to those moments and get sad.  My parents argue occasionally. I think my dad feels like my mom ignores him, but sometimes when she talks to him he "zones out." My mom can have quite a temper, but it's usually the result of my 7 year old brother. But then she'll be like "I love you" or when I ask them about when they first met, they stare at each other lovingly... I'm honestly so confused. It's like they each have 2 different moods.  I have to admit I've grown less closer to each of my parents recently. It's hard to explain - they are good parents, but there's something "off" and I find myself wanting to parent differently.  Today I forgot to do the dishwasher and my dad yelled at me and proceeded to mutter all morning. Then, when I apologized and thought things were better, he goes... "Everyone hates me here. I wish I had died many years ago, so you all didn't have to live with a loser."  I said "HUH?" And he goes, "you and your 3 siblings know exactly what I mean."  I said, "What the heck are you talking about?" Then, he just goes: "FORGET IT."  Now I'm wondering if he's taking his anger out for my mom on me, but he says I don't respect him?? right now I just feel super depressed, and I really don't want to tell my mom.. idk... I'm feeling so down in the dumps. 

me before but I told him that if he touches me or anyone else then I will call the police. He told me to call them and get out. That was a few years ago and he hasn't threatened me since. My mom wouldn't let him kick me out and I refused to leave because she let me stay. If he didn't like me staying there, her response was that he could leave, instead. We both decided to stay and put up with each other. I am 16. I can't move out until I am 18 in my country. My dad tried to put me on the streets when I was 14 after a fight we had.

They both want me to move out because my room isn't very clean? Which I know is an easy fix but my mom straight up told me that she's ready for me to leave. The thing is, I do have a job, but it's unreliable for my hours due to the pandemic. I don't make enough to live off of... I just turned 18 a couple of days ago and we were all fine and having fun, but for some reason they woke me up at 6 this morning just to tell me all of this.. I just don't know what to do 

Me and my partner of 4 years have started quarantining together and it's been so lovely. However he can be immature so we've been having banter, but sometimes it feels over the top and like he's being serious when he isn't. The other day he whacked me lightly and I did it back, he squeezed my wrist as a joke. And he said I wanna hit you/ I wanna f* hit you (he would never and in all the years he's never laid a hand on me and never would). But when he said it he wasn't laughing he looked fr  but he would never it was just banter and he's always been so caring and loving. He treats me all the time and does caring things, we just have a relationship where we have a lot of banter sometimes can be a bit rough than others. I explained to him and sat him down and said that even if he's joking saying I wanna hit you thing is a bit over the top and he said he won't say it again and he hasn't. However we still banter and mess about with eachother, earlier he slapped my thigh in a s**xy jokey way and left a handprint but that was just in a sexual way. Is this okay or is it bad ???? He would never hurt me and the only thing that bothered me is what he said but he was kidding and said he won't again as he understands that was ott 

My mom says she is going to send me to military school because I have two Cs. She also says it's for two years and that she won't let me graduate middle school. Is this normal....?

A few months ago, my brother started seeing a girl who is not the best person. She manipulates him, does not let him do things without her being present, keeps checking his phone... I can barely get in contact with him, and every time it happens its either 3 words and bye or that ***** answers instead of him.... He moved in with her, before we were alone in our apartment... Every time he visits, she comes with him and makes a scene over the most stupid things and one situation really pissed me off... Once, my brother wanted to stay a day longer and she was against it... My brother was upset, even crying and I wanted to call her every bad word in the dictionary... They have broken up once, and then she almost called THE COPS on him... And now, he is bringing her with him in Friday at our parents house... I know my brother can do better and deserves better but I don`t know what to do or how to react anymore... What should I do ?

I would just like to know because my mom wears them all the time during the summer and she is 36. There i no butt coming out of them but they are pretty short.

Yesterday my mother was discussing homework with me and we have online classes cause of the virus I didn't know I had more homework and she got mad I left to my room and do misbehave but not crazy I do faces like out of frustration cause she is always screaming in my face and I went to my room she came and tossed some paper to me and I was like dont do that its rude and she was like I can do what I want and I told her no and she grabbed a marker and threw it at me I have anxiety attacks and I don't know how to handle it well and I start crying my mother out of frustration hit my nose and think she broke it cause I was bleeding and I have a bump and it still hurts and she hit my head I blacked out for couple of seconds and I was dizzy I started shaking out of fear and this is the first time it was this bad  Is this abuse she calls it discipline  I have a bruise on my nose and I can breathe only from one nostril and my head hurts 

Right now I am stuck in the bitterness stage.

Before you say I'm not helping, theres tons of spring cleaning to still do and unfinished remodeling. Im.tired of her negative things she says, her moods, laziness, and we fight constantly. Shes getting so fat too. I snapped out of it because I started acting lazy like her. I dont want to give up on her but I've been waiting and hoping she changes. She said it's over and for me to leave because I asked her wtf am I doing here the? Her house has so much to.do.  I would not mind, but seeing she doesnt care about herself is hard. Then she cries a lot after we argue, but wakes up.cussing and mumbling to herself.   I try to avoid her now, but I lost control venting in texts. I had the upper hand playing silent treatment and like neutral. Honestly shes gross to me now. This is my first serious relationship and I cant tell if im.a jerk, or just have higher standards. She could care less if the place went to shut and has dust from a year ago.  Im.sick of fighting. And she gets on my nerves, but I care too much about her health and I hate living like a pig. So.zi clean daily and remodel and exercise. Lastly, we fought because I tried to clean her room. She got very mad. I'm not going to blame quarantine either. There is no doctor!!!  No money for therapy duh!!!

My dad has always been kind of suspicious around his laptop(s). Usually he's on them late at night, alone in the kitchen. If he hears anyone coming down the stairs he closes the laptop really quickly and gets up from the table. A few years ago, I had to use his laptop because mine wasn't working. He wasn't home, so I called him for the password. While I was on the computer, I saw that he had Omegle bookmarked. I wasn't snooping around or anything, it was right on the homepage. It made me feel so sick so I didn't look any further. Last year, I came down the stairs quietly enough that he couldn't hear me. Right before he saw me I heard a woman saying "Hi..your screen is dark, I can't see you!" And then he closed the laptop really quickly. He still does the laptop thing a year later, but has become very good about listening for the steps. I don't want to think of my dad as a creep who's cheating on my mom with girls online, but I feel sick every time I think about it. Is there any other explanation for what could be happening? Do I tell my mom?

PLEASE READ ALL : I need help lol. Basically, I am turning 21 and I stay with my parents. I want to have a SMALL (5 people) party at a hotel for My bday NEXT MONTH... my parent are afraid of me bringing back corona. They are 53 and 51. My mother has an autoimmune disease (lupus) and my dad has no underlying health issues. They think I'm being selfish and stupid but the people I invited have been quarantined, not out exposed. ALSO MY FATHER WANTS ME TO QUARANTINE FOR 14 DAYS AT THE HOTEL before I come home but I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT??? I think if he wants me to stay , he should pay!! What do you guys think? 

Since my mother died a few years ago, my dad has moved on, and I'm still not over it. I miss her every day. She was my sunlight, the kindest women I ever knew. I'm 16. I still cry at night because I miss her so much. Anyway, since her death, my dad married rather quickly, I guess trying to forget her because it so deeply hurt him, at first I liked her, this woman, things were goin really well until I noticed that whenever my dad would leave to go somewhere, and would leave us two alone, she is a completely different person. It's almost terrifying. She tells me to go to my bed when it's daytime and to do chores, HER OWN CHORES. That was the Beginning of their relationship, when I was 13 she would yell and scream at me strongly like an evil witch and tell me to piss off and leave her alone, and of course my father was never present, she would make me cry and I couldn't play with my toys In the house because I feared her THAT much, and that's not even the worst part, at that age when ignored  her to do my own thing, she would beat me with a wet towel so my dad wouldn't see marks On me to suspect anything. I would cry, and did other things like lock me outside of the house in the rain or lock me in the garage. She's a cunning psychopath. I hate her,I don't understand why she hates me so much. I try to tell me dad but he doesn't believe me.She acts like a saint around him, she's a liar and a mínipulative witch, I jus go to my room and close the door now to ignore that c*** Idk now

Is there? when I was 11 my mom got so mad at me she threw me on the bed I was standing still and she grabbed my arm and I lifted off my feet and landed on the bed.

We were at a local restaurant recently (they just reopened from Covid-19) and I told her to put her iPhone away so that we could all as a family have dinner and conversation. She threw a hissy fit and asked if she could text her mom from the bathroom and I said no. I am her older sister and have legal custody of her but mom is a drug addict. Grandma, dad, Aunt, and grandpa were also at the restaurant and she embarrassed me. After she cried for 10 minutes in her chair I snatched the phone away and she refused to eat. We ended up taking the food to go and she embarrassed me. Someone from church also saw it too and I'm sure that they think our family is trash. She has braces and also doesn't brush like she should but that's another topic.  Dad pays it 

I am 20. Usually I would be living in an off-campus apartment, but because of the virus, I am back at home with my family (mom, dad, high-school age sister). My dad has started treating me like he did when I was in high-school again (disapproving of what I wear, making me do chores, etc.), which is mostly fine. The only thing I dislike is that he's always coming in my room for no reason. He'll pop in, survey my room (he is trying to find something bad, usually), say "hello," and leave. If I'm ever doing anything I don't want him to find out about (masturbating, trying on outfits I know he wouldn't approve of, FaceTiming with a guy friend, etc.), I have to quickly hide it when I hear him coming up on the stairs.  Today when he came in, I asked very politely if he could only come in if he needs something, in respect of my privacy. He got very angry and passive aggressive and left. I didn't want to hurt his feelings at all-- I just hate feeling like I can't be myself in my room, the one place where I can be alone in my house (it is a very small house). Am I being an asshole here? Is there anything I should say to him to make him feel better? 

My grandma took me away from my mom when I was 3 because my mom wasn't in stable condition but now she's a way better person. will the court let me live with her what exactly do I do?.

I guess I want to rant more than anything, but here it goes. I'm 17 and I am on the chubby side (150lbs 5ft 6in) . My arms, boobs, thighs and hip are my main problem areas. I think they make me look fatter than I actually am. I have always been chubby. Everyone in my family has always criticized my weight. I guess my earliest memory is when I must have been about 6 or 7, when my parents would make me go on runs and restrict my diet. So, I'm used to my parents criticizing me; however, when they criticize me these days, I seem to get more upset. And it's not like I don't exercise or watch what I eat. I honestly don't know what the hell they want from me. Recently, I went on a run with my parents. They got mad at me for stopping when I got tired. And they weren't even running. Every time I am with them, the conversation comes down to my body. Even when they don't say anything, I can see them watching my arms. And I am no allowed to be upset about their comments, which doesn't surprise me because they never seem to be able to accept the fact that I, like everyone in this world, sometimes get sad and just want to cry. Instead, they get mad at it, so I usually smile in front of them. This one time, I was very upset about their comment about me looking like a "sumo wrestler". I pretty much cried the entire day, so they stopped taking about my weight for about a week, but after that, we were back at it again. So yeah idk what to do. Apologies for this whole shenanigan. 

Because i think i know what I'm talking about........ I am surrounded by too many mean people. Im going to delete the yahoo account There's too many things for me to feel insulted about. I have no life......

My Boyfriend's sister-in-law is such a social manipulator. She thinks and feels that she can do no wrong and when someone tried to talk to her and prove her wrong to show her she is not right it goes in one ear and out the other. Also, if you do not agree with her or have the same opinion you are wrong. Also, she will do something wrong and it will be fixed by someone ( namely me)  and she will get all butthurt and ***** at her husband (my boyfriend's brother)  who will yell at my brother who takes action. I know I have done some things that she deems wrong but are not wrong according to my friends and my boyfriend (he would tell me if I did something wrong) but I can see where I am at fault but trying to talk to her is like trying to talk to a brick wall because she cannot see her faults. She will not talk and work anything out because she is so loud and opinionated that she feels she is always right and others are wrong and need to fix it but she doesn't because she was wronged. She has lived her entire life in some sort of lie because she pisses people off like my bf's mother apologizes and does it again. She cannot be reasoned with.  She is a social manipulator who knows how to cause strain in relationships.  She doesn't like something and bitches at her brother to take action because she is the queen all mighty in her eyes and her husband is blind to her unacceptable bx. Any ideas on how to deal with a social manipulator/narcissist/do no wrong person? ***** is the B word. yahoo took out the word.

My dad is a truck driver and drives around the state delivering snacks and pop at gas stations. The problem is he refuses to wear a mask no matter how many times I try to tell him. It doesn't help that he's always touching his face just to "spite the government." I asked my mom what she thinks, and she said if we die, it's God's way of telling us "it's time to go." They also refuse to wash their hands and said cases in Pennsylvania are "going down so we can do things again." How can I convince them to take this seriously? Thanks.

So my Mom realized where my brother's birthmother lives and today at work I was in that neighborhood. She has never seen me before and I am 32 and my brother 22. My brother is adopted as my step-father could not conceive. It was the woman, I had seen her picture, and she had a couple of teens with her. I smiled and nodded my head as one of the teens was looking my way and appeared to be Down Syndrome and was randomly waving. However, I did not stop and speak. Was this a good move? They have had no contact and my brother has never pursued a reunion. Birth-mother was a teen and the father had died from Cocaine during the pregnancy so she gave my brother up for adoption. She was only 15 or 16 at the time so I think was going to anyway. My mother knew where this lady lives from a mail order where she recognized the name of the woman under maiden name. I obviously would NEVER have said who I was. I also felt speaking was inappropriate since I do not know the woman and felt awkward by it. I had needed to ask if the exit was reopened but decided to ask the next person I saw (didn't see anyone so had to turn around but oh well).
