Hey, your reply-to-post tutorial was the perfect thing I absolutely needed - google wasn't helpful with actual search results, but the tags it put in led me directly to your post where you explained the process well, and for that, I'm appreciative! Just thought I'd send some kind words and some thanks.
Oh my goodness this was such a nice surprise to see when I opened up my messages! I’m so glad it was helpful! When I made that I had no idea it would be as useful and popular as it turned out to be and I’m really really glad it was clear and actually handy! Thank you so much for your kind words, it really made my day!
My respect for your mother is continuously declining with each and every update I see about her. How can she even -say- something like that to one of her own? I am very sorry you have to deal with this regularly.
I had a friend recently confess to me that when we were younger, it used to be Dad who freaked her out and Mom was always the nice one. But now it seems like the roles have swapped and Dad's the easy-going one and Mom is the one who's beginning to make her uneasy.
I don't know if she got a bad case of Empty Nest Syndrome after I moved out last year or WHAT. But it does feel like since she got vertigo, she continuously finds ways to anger, irritate, or insult me. And she KNOWS that she can't say the right things to help make me feel better about my current situation, yet she tries anyway and ends up making it worse, or picks fights with me for whatever reason.
For instance, a couple weeks ago when I was having a particularly bad breakdown, she told me that she wanted to take me to a homeless shelter, maybe THEN I'd be grateful that my life's not so bad. REALLY, MOM?! THAT'S your answer? Take me to a homeless shelter to meet people with REAL problems?! As if mine AREN'T real, and AREN'T frustrating, and AREN'T soul-crushing?! Not to say they have it easier, or that their situations AREN'T worse, but don't my problems matter at all?
I knew it wouldn't be comfortable when I moved back, but if I had known that things would have been THIS bad, I would have made more of an effort to stay in Canada.
*Heavy sigh* But thank you, Tony. I just hope I get a bit of luck soon so I can start to fix my problems and not have to deal with Mom like this on a regular basis.
What they say is true, though - I've always found you cute! The way you dress is cool, I've always liked how your hair looks, and you overall are just. Like. aaaaaa. IT'S CUTE. Don't you worry.
Nyyyyuuuuu I’m running out of appropriate reaction GIFs.
Aaahhhh jeez guys. Th-thank youuuu.
I hope one day I’ll have a self-image that’s HALF as good as you guys think I am.
