And now I'm suffering. I've never had a good relationship with my mom (she thinks otherwise), and when I moved, it was generally a phone call a week at most. She's now on Facebook. Now I get, "OMG I MISS YOU WE SHOULD TOTALLY ALL MEET UP. LOVE YOU." Minus the caps, the spelling, punctuation, grammar, and everything someone who aspires to write would kill to use. The only reason I accepted her was because if I didn't, and then decided to hop on a plane and visit, I'd probably ruin every bit of civility and mouth-zipping I've ever used.
Keep in mind that it gets progressively TMI as we go along. "O hai, I lost a lot more weight even though it's at an unhealthy level and I'm really tall!" "Omg you wanna know what I used?? It's DietAwesome and allllll my friends are asking and now it's really popular because of me. Want some?". It's pissing me off. I left BECAUSE you were treating me like a real life Twitter with all sorts of asinine crap. Instead of a diary, she unloaded it on me. Now it's back to the way it was before. I actually had to suggest her to use a PM because it's so ridiculous. She was commenting on some random link until I said otherwise.
Then there's my sister. Who only really talks about dogs, alcohol (she's not even legal), and the typical teenager emo crap. She always keeps saying, "you need more pictures lol", when no one really talks to me and none of my friends are on there. Did I mention she's the opposite of me and somehow thinks I'm not? To top it off, she keeps joking about me making jewelry for her. The last time I made something for her, it ended up being trash on her floor. No. Don't TELL me what to make for you, and don't tell me to make it 'awesome'. If I'm making jewelry, it'll be for myself, profit, or people who give a damn about me. Also, fuck you for letting your dog kill mine. Train them.
And now my cousins are on Facebook. The one who chased me with Black Widow spiders, and the other who wasn't very impressionable and was just there. Somehow I'm supposed to talk to them even if I don't know them much anymore. Somehow I'm supposed to care. >_>
Hints on dealing with this crap? I somehow feel entitled to read the crap my mom writes to me and write back various forms of, "How nice. Good luck with that.". Same with the rest of my family. Especially when they demand for all sorts of pictures of my work, and when I bust my ass to post them up, they ignore it. The most I ever get is, "cool".
I may sound cruel with all this, but I can certainly say that my Mother is toxic to my mental health, and my sister the same.
