Caught my mother eavesdropping...

I live in a country with a dire housing situation. Rental properties are very few and what's available is too expensive. Even house shares are becoming harder and harder.

I live at home. I have a mother. My father is gone since I was young.

I caught my mother eavesdropping on a call I was on. It wasn't a personal call and nothing too private but still. The eavesdropping. It's nasty. It wasn't the first time she did.

I won't take it too personally because I caught her doing similar to a sibling of mine. My siblings lives abroad in another continent and isn't aware of it.

My mother is someone who won't tolerate a talk with me setting boundaries. It's nasty behaviour. F*cking nasty.

I feel trapped at home and I feel much worse now too with the big S on my mind.
