Ok so this is something thats been bugging me for years. I am very close with my family but always feel like they dont really accept me for who i am.
Im not exactly girly id rather live in jeans and tshirts, i dont wear makeup and am just not interested in that stuff yet they are always commented about how i should be more feminine.
I also love motorbikes and have been riding since i was 17. When i had children i gave up for a while but got one again when i went back to work (i cant drive)and the way they acted you would think i was the most evil mother in the world as "its selfish to ride now you have responsibilities" and "your not a boy we thought youd be more feminine now you have children". My dp also rides and when i say what about him then i get told its different as children need their mums.
I know its silly it bothers me so much but it really gets to me. Its like they just want me to be somethimg im not. Like i said im really close with them otherwise. Has anyone else experienced this and aibu to let it get to me?
