Family - love them, but only in small doses!

[warrior queen]

My Mama arrives tomorrow morning to stay for a month. I can't wait to see her and spend some time with her..... whilst dreading the fact that she'll be here for A WHOLE FUCKING MONTH!
Don't get me wrong - I love her to death
Unfortunately, that may very well be what occurs to one of us while she's here
Small dosez. That's all I can take. I am already seeing the very real prospect of my mental health deteriorating.....

We've all got that one family member we adore in brief moments.
Who's yours?

 

[sharingfantasies]

my youngest sister.. love her dearly, but am glad she lives out of state.

LOL!
Why do you think I migrated to the end of the world?

My brother and I used to get on very well, as long as we were 100 miles apart and visits between us were for a couple of hours. Four or five visits a year were enough.

I invented antisociqal tho I was once the king of hospitality and the social scene. I have no friends I know of, and have no contact with any of my aunts, uncles, cousins, and sisters. I have 5 sisters. I refuse to waste a minute with the nonsense most people bring to a relationship. People are compelled to release their pathologies.

And you wonder why your wife was slipping extra fish oil tablets in your morning Ensure shake.

 

[warrior queen]

One day she won't be around to drive you to distraction, enjoy it while you can.

Yeah, I know
We are actually very, very close. Live on opposite sides of the country, and talk twice a week, every week on the phone for at least an hour each time. We are always sending parcels - I send her gourmet yummies from Tassie at least twice a month, and she sends me gourmet yummies I can't get here.
It's just......... well, she's so damn SET in her ways, which just happen to be the complete opposite ways to mine! We clash, like fire-engine red and royal purple.

Sounds like you are exactly like each other.

Nope. She's the kind of person who saves everything "just in case" (rubber bands, plastic bags, used envelopes as scrap paper for notes.... you get the idea!) whereas I am so minimalist I am waaaaay beyond Zen! I keep nothing. I don't like things on benchtops or tables unless absolutely necessary, and I am ruthless with clutter.
Every time she visits, immediately after she leaves I do a rubbish tip run and throw out at least a carfull of shit she accumulates whilst here.

 

[Not Normal]

No way I'd invite anyone to spend a month.

 

[warrior queen]

I kindasorta have to.... I'm her only surviving child, and all my kids (and grandbabies) live here.
It would be cruel not to.

I will survive this - just like I survive it every time - but I will be a little worse for wear by months end!

Reviewing your recorded posting record here, we find ourselves wondering how your lifebearer feels about having to force herself to spend a month with you?

Have you considered applying the same illogic about sharing space, with what you say are her hardly-tolerable, opposite ways of thinking, as many here on this site think should apply to others who think so different than them, too?

Two words: paid motherhood.

All you have to do is decide how much she needs to pay to show you how much she appreciates you being her daughter and how thankful she is that you even allow her to share any of your privately-owned space.

We can't imagine how proud a mother must be that her daughter would ever even think to actually gossip about her on an adult porn site, let alone find so much satisfaction in actually doing so.

Yum, oatmeal and fish oil

Make sure to give her a few chores to do, like wiping the tabletops and packing parcels to ship to her home address.

Reviewing .....

You read ALL my post history?
Damn!
My impressed-o-meter is OFF THE FUCKING CHART!!!

Whoever has you, tell em you're a keeper :nods:

Heh. Never worked before!
But I'll try.

Tbh - I am a *little* excited to see her.....

I had some friends who made a lovely couple and they were basically finishing each others' sentences.

Then her parents got residency and moved in with them to help with the kids and all.

Now: divorced, they barely speak to each other.

 

[pink]

I loved my mom very much. I called her almost every day. I'm not very close with my siblings at all. I mostly only see them on holidays.

 

[hashtag45]

My parents love us to death, and they made huge sacrifices for us.

It's just that they tended to interfere a bit in our personal lives -with good intentions, of course, but still..-.
But the older we all get, the less they do that, which is cool.

In saying that, I'm sure that WQ and myself exaggerated a bit just for fun. Because the parents-child relationship is always a funny one. Especially when the 'child' is past a certain age.

Denny---<-----that's me! The male half

We only have one relative that we have grown to hate with her help. It's my brother's German wife. What a mean hateful fuck she is!
He met her in Germany during the war and brought her crazy ass over to the States. I still think she's one of Hitlers illegal babies.

There were times she made up stories and lies to get my wife to leave me, other things that just pissed us off.
Now they live on the other side of the USA and she won't let my younger brother visit or call.
Other than her, we get along with all friends and relatives. Sadly as we age, there are less alive to love.
However you feel about a relative, do the best you can to get along. Those moms, dads, and others will soon be gone.

WQ my wife is like your mother. She saves everything and I have to come back to throw it out.

I knew my Mama had a major problem when I asked her for help replacing a zipper in a cushion cover... she turned up with a boxfull of zips, all rescued from old clothes, colour-coded and organised by size. Had to be about 1500 zips in that box!
She won't live long enough to use more than about 10 of those zippers - which, btw, she is still adding to!
I'm actually dreading inheriting when the inevitable happens!
