So most, if not all, of my family is insane. Iāll start with the worst one so far: My Mamaw. She immediately thinks that just because sheās older, sheās wiser, and sheās nice to everyone else, except for me specifically. Why? Well according to her Iām unappreciative. Any proof? Iāll occasionally not do the dishes, but in comparison to taking her trash off for her, cooking meals for both me and her, or picking up stuff for us to eat without asking for money back, helping her get a few out of countless totes and boxes for constant decorating through the seasons, and I donāt even wait for a thank you or anything like that, idk. Which she expects me to do stuff like that, but she also expects me to do the dishes, but she complains when I cook about stuff smelling like itās burning (itās not, she even did it when I went for Taco Bell one day, so other than food I had no heat, and I wish I could dismiss it for Covid but itās happened before Covid too) or just me using her cookware in general for cooking, that she never uses, and when I do the dishes because Iāll either leave the water running, or the dishes just wonāt be clean to her. Hell, just last night she was looking at photos of our family who had graduated, and they were in their cap and gown, posing, and she said to me (unprompted I might add) āI would look at these photos and be so disappointed in youā because I never had anything like that done, ignoring the fact I had transferred almost every semester since the latter half of highschool, Covid hit around that time too, and she usually initiates stuff like that but not with me. I never say anything but just the insanity of dealing with her alone is nothing compared to the rest of my family but I also limit my contact with them usually, but Iām currently living with her. Then she wonders why Iām so negative around her, but canāt seem to put 2 and 2 together. Whatās more she keeps calling Covid another flu, dismisses the delta variant entirely, and back when it first hit she mentioned it being Godās punishment for gays and Asians, and despite being a nurse sheās obese, to the point it even started bothering her hip. Sheās supposed to go to physical therapy for it, but doesnāt because it hurts. So every day she gets up and at random points in the day complains, limping about her hip, but doesnāt do a thing about it. So hereās my question: why do I bother helping her, with the way she treats me I shouldnāt care as much.
