I love my mom but..
So my mom owns a restaurant me and my sisters and my S/O work at. Well yesterday he and I were off and my mom called asking if I wanted food brought home. I said yes and gave her my boyfriends order and then told her mine. A turkey burger with nothing on it but pepper jack cheese and green chilies with a side of cottage cheese. She said ok and put in the order. She comes home and gives me the food. She said she forgot the side and that was alright but the moment she handed me the box. I knew. I knew there were onions and tomatoes on it. I smelled them before I even opened the box. My entire life. I’ve hated those two things. I can’t eat or smell them without getting sick or disgusted. My entire life. My mom should know this. I never will eat anything with those two things in it. I’m 22, 14 weeks pregnant and I just wanted the food I ordered. I was so upset I started crying. I couldn’t eat the burger. The onion and tomato smells were so disgusting I couldn’t eat it. I was legit bawling in frustration. Thinking “how could my own mother not know I hated those two things I’ve always disliked??” She only has two other daughters. Why could she remember what my little sister didn’t like but “mix up” me and my older sister?? My father that didn’t even raise me knows the things I do and don’t like. He can surprise me with something and I’d be happy and eat/drink it. But when it comes to my mom, she mixes us 3 up??? How?? I know this is a bit over dramatic. I didn’t tell her how upsetting it was or complain to my mom. She just apologized when I started crying and I told her it was alright and said thank you and hugged her and went to my house. (We live on one property) My older sister ended up going out and bringing me home my favorite cheesecake since she was walking by when I started crying telling me that our mom forgets things about her too. It’s like my mom only remembers things about our younger sister :( my older sister is 25, I’m 22 and my younger sister is 20. We aren’t that far apart in age. So it just sucks feeling like my mom doesn’t know what I like and dislike.
