Living with my parents due to splitting with hubby (have been since 2006) and I am really getting fed up with the way things are.
My parents are very good to me as I don't need to pay rent (currently jobless) and they love having my dd in the house. BUT, my Mum and I just seem to rub each other up the wrong way all the time. Generally we are very close and I love her to pieces, but now I just seem to be irritated with her all the time and snapping constantly and she is doing the same with me.
I am not very happy with my life, although not depressed I think, and she is not happy with hers and because of this we have frequent arguments about stupid things that mean nothing. I know that she thinks alot of my worries are superficial (but I am a natural born worrier and worry about EVERYTHING) and often gives me lectures. I am not allowed to say things about my weight for example, because she says I am insulting her because she is bigger than me. I get told how "snotty" I am and how I make her feel bad, and she does say this quite alot, even though she believes she doesn't.
I could go on, but as you can see it is all pointless inconsequetial stuff! As a result I feel guilty because I suppose she must be right and really think I need to move out and leave her and Dad to their own space, but without a job and savings, what the hell do I do? I don't want to make her feel bad all the time, how can I be a better person?
