But I still continue to partake in them (to a limited extent) for them. But I hate the emphasis they put on them. They just can't seem to understand my point of view on it. I figured after I was out of my teens, my parents would be a little more forgiving of my decisions, but no. I'm 27 and it still has not changed. Will it ever?holy fuck!!!!! maynard and i have something in common!!!!
my mother drives me in-fucking-sane and i've told her straight her face but it doesn't seem to sink in!!!!
i'm 30 years old, have a wife and a 4 month old daughter and i've threatened my mother by telling her that she'll never see my daughter or me again if she keeps up all the bullshit and she just doesn't seem to get it.
here's an example. this past holiday season i think to myself do i want to subject myself to the torture of going to my parents house on christmas eve or shall i have them come up here? now you gotta realize that i'm fucked no matter which way i choose. so like an asshole i say fuck it, i'll have the whole family come up here and treat them to an enjoyable and well planned evening.
they're notorious for being late so i give them a large window to arrive, anytime between 5:30 and 7:30. guess what time they showed up? 9 fucking 15!!!!! plus they didn't leave till roughly @ 3:30 am
rather than going on ranting my family makes me mental and there's absolutely nothing i can do to make the situation better.
my mother doesn't believe in compromise, it's her way or the highway. so i choose the highway. sometime this year or next year we plan on moving, i doubt that i'll tell my family where or when. it'll be like what verbal says about keyser soze in the usual suspects. "and poof, like that.....he's gone!"
