I can’t handle my mother
My mother is driving me nuts. She always has something to say, be it my weight (120 lb) or my school or job. I’m a junior in college and I have an internship that I was lucky to get through my dad at his company. From the start I was uncomfortable with this because I felt like I wasn’t being treated the same as others, I had a less harder time getting the internship because my dad is well known in the company and what not and I was a little uncomfortable and upset my parents didn’t let me try to get a job on my own. Anyways, I have had that job al Sumer and will have it during the school year, twice a week, 20 hours in total. Last semester I applied for a job on campus, and I finally got the okay from it today, and my mom is so pissed.
The thing is she knew about this job before I applied, when I was doing thr interview, and after. She didn’t have a problem with it then hit now she suddenly does. I need this job because I need to pay rent for my apartment, for my school textbooks, for transportation like train tickets and metro card money for my job in the city, and for groceries. My job in the city isn’t enough to cover that, and the on campus job itself is enough to cover rent money.
My mom had all summer to tell me not to take this job, but she didn’t and she also repeatedly said I had to pay half of my own rent and she’ll pay half. So I have to pay $650 a month, and I was fine b cause I felt bad, I was supposed to have a roommate but the day of moving in she backed out so I was okay with paying $650 to help my mom out. But when I told her I got an on campus job thjats is just desk assistant (just swiping people into the dorm building), she like “oh so you’re ok doing blue collared jobs?”
It made me so mad. This isn’t the first time my mom has been disrespectful as fuck. She constantly is, her status and money are so important to her hat it actually brings out so many arguments between us. The other day she vocalized how much she hated my high school friend because she works instead of going to college. She didn’t have an issue with my friend in high school but now that she’s not in college, she’s suddenly a bad person. If I have a dress that’s is off shoulders or a shirt that is a little v neck, I’m a slut or a whore, I sleep around with guys. Then maybe I should go find somewhere else to live, some guy to sleep with. These are all her words. And she says I latch onto my dad for his job. I mean like wtf. Its at her convenience that I’m a leech when I’ve told her how I felt uncomfortable about getting an internship through my dad. Then she said it’s okay if you have this chance take it but now suddenly I’m latching onto him. She threatens to take away my school my apartment and everything. She said if I plan to have a blue collared job after college to just drop out now and have no education. What kind of job does she expect me to have without a degree? She doesn’t even think I can make t after college. Every day she tells me I’m good for nothings except cleaning toilets and sweeping the floor.
I’m not doing anything bad, I’ve taken up a job ON campus to help with paying rent and being responsible. Like who’s gonna pay for my 200$ law textbook? Not her, and Money doesn’t just come out of my ass like that. It’s so fucking frustrating. School hasn’t even started and we’re already at each others throats. Its Only going to get worse.
