Narcissism in a nutshell

By Anonymous - 13/06/2021 00:00 - Australia

Today, my boyfriend's family offered me the trip of a lifetime visiting their families overseas. My mother threw a tantrum, telling me that it was my fault that she was never able to travel, it was my fault that she got pregnant with me and had to marry my abusive father. FML

Today, after telling my mom that I'll be going to Las Vegas with my dad for my 21st birthday, she started ranting about how my dad always wanted to abort me and that she was the only one who actually wanted me. FML

Today, my boyfriend said angrily that he should never have gotten together with me, that he should have known a woman with divorced parents would have daddy issues, and never be quite right in the head. His own parents are divorced by the way, and his mom is extremely overbearing. FML

Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. Everything was going perfectly, right up until he brought me back to his house to tell his family the good news. When I excused myself to the restroom, I overheard his mom say, "I thought you were going to break up with that stupid slut?" Welcome to the family. FML

Today, I took my girlfriend home to meet my parents. My dad was having a bad day and was rude from the outset, but things went to total hell when he started screaming that he'd "kill" our microwave if it didn't "shut the hell up". My girlfriend now thinks we're a family of abusive psychos. FML

Today, my mother came into my workplace to wail on me for "ruining our family's reputation" because I got a girl pregnant. I've been married to the "girl" for 8 years. FML

Today, my sister and I were planning a trip to get away from things and visit some faraway friends. My dad then decided to insert himself into our plans. He got mad when we said no, and couldn't understand why we wanted to go by ourselves. FML

take the trip and run!

Tell your mom that we all make our own decisions. She did what she thought she had to, and she should be happy that you have the opportunities that she didn't. What exactly does she want you to do? Pass on the things that make you happy to show solidarity with her? Feel guilty taking opportunities just to validate her life choices? She lived her life, and you should live yours. Tell her to save some money and take a trip to the Great Barrier Reef if she wants to travel. Australia is a huge continent with lots of amazing places and sights.

Mom is clearly toxic, those ARE the kind of relationships to leave.

she was definitely out of place saying that but it also sounds like she's going through something right now. giver her time try to help her through this and when you get older if you can afford it some day take her on a nice trip. it sounds like the woman's had a hard life and sometimes hardships can get the best of us.
