and i'm romantically and sexually attracted to girls
idk what that's called

(also i'm listening to girl in red so)

OKAY SO IMMA RANT:

So I absolutely hate it when people tell me I'm like my mom. Don't get me wrong I love her and stuff, but I don't want to be anything like her. She's pushy and has to know every detail and DAMMIT SHE'S SO ANNOYING. I love my style and wearing what I wear makes me so happy. I wear a lot of ripped jeans, flannels, band t-shirts, and hoodies with high-tops or my Doc Martens and my mom always says "oh I had that exact outfit in high school" and that just makes me want to cry and I don't know why!!!!! I have depression and my mom's always like "oh I was just like you when I was younger. I was nihilistic just like you and I was sad all the time but I grew out of it" LIKE IT ISN'T A PHASE OR SOMETHING THAT I GROW OUT OF! IT ISN'T SOME JOKE OKAY!! I am literally suffering from depression while she's over there claiming that she knows what I'm going through. She tells me that she used to be an adrenaline junkie just like me when she was younger AND I HATE THAT!!! LIKE CAN I HAVE MY OWN THING THAT MAKES ME HAPPY WITHOUT HER CONSTANTLY TELLING ME THAT SHE DID THAT EXACT THING????? LIKE I AM SO STUBBORNLY INDEPENDENT AND I WANT TO BE AS MUCH AS A DIFFERENT PERSON THAT I CAN BE FROM HER! I want to move to the other end of the country where I can pursue a career in the arts away from her. I know that sounds so mean and bad but just… I wanna be my own person without her telling me that she's "been here done that" like seriously…. Am I insane??

I'm your mom now

What do you get when you fall in love
A guy with a pin to burst your bubble
That's what you get for all your trouble.
–This song is stuck in my head…Thanks Strange Magic

Nah man you don't sound mean and bad, you sound like someone whose mom thinks she knows every-fucking-thing about you and she's just wrong. Tbh I'm in a similar boat, can't wait until I hit that sweet, sweet one-eight. My mom keeps claiming that I'm just "fucking lazy" and that she's "been there, sweetheart" when I try to tell her that I want to get tested for ADHD because I can't do my goddamn homework and a lot of the symptoms are lining up. And idk if yours is like this, but my mom's always tried to choose everything in my life for me. Like when I was younger I just wanted to study Komodo dragons because they're fuckin awesome and my mom was like "WoW mY bAbY gIrL wAnTs To Be A mArInE bIoLoGiSt!!!" when I showed no interest in fish/dolphins/penguins/other aquatic animals. She was legitimately convinced I wanted to study sea life and tried to use it against me when I got shit grades. More recently, it's been stuff like "You'll never play on a college girls' hockey team with grades like that" and??? I don't want to play college puck??? She even tries to control tiny things, like how my room's organized or what kind of clothes I wear and apparently I can't make any decisions for myself until I'm 18 and out of her house(how the fuck am I supposed to fend for myself when I can't even decide what color sweater I want to buy???) so like yeah

Sorry, that ended up turning into a massive rant pretty quick but uhh fuck overbearing moms, amirite?

Biromantic homosexual!
Not that I'm, like, defining your sexuality, it's just a term to look into

Yeah, I feel the whole mom thing…
I'm over 18 and still get a lot of criticism, a lot of "I did that when I was your age."
It's exhausting, especially considering my relationship with her has been a big factor in my depression.
Would go more in depth, but I'm not feeling it. I just wanted to say I empathize.

I can Kinda relate to the mom thing.
Kinda petty, but my mom likes to blame me for eating candy and shit, when I am trying to eat healthier.
Then goes and calls me fat because of my weight gain from being home for 4 months.

It's just I want to be my own person that can do what I wanna do without my mom always telling me that she was just like me. I love being original and my own person (blending in is boring) and I guess that whenever she tells me that it just feels like that I'm not my own person. I just hate it. I can't wait til I turn eighteen and can move out of state. (that's just 4 looooong years away ;-;)

My mom is a sweetheart but condescending af. My dad is very much worse, like, he's really bad.

Hey I don't really know where else to put this, but since I started going by Leo and all that shit a lot of people have been using they/them for me and just to be clear:
I don't love they/them, I prefer just he/him/she/her, male pronouns would be especially cool because nobody really uses them for me.

My dad is just distant. He's usually at work or sitting downstairs watching TV. My mom is the 'dominant' parent if that makes sense. Like she's the one that always wants to sign papers for school and she's the one that takes me and my sister out to dinner. My dad is a lot easier to talk to though, however when he's mad it's so scary to be around him…. lots of yelling.

of course man ! he/him it is !!
