Mother and daughter relationships are very important to both a mother and a daughter. I know because my relationship with my mother has affected me very deeply in a positive way and a negative way. Mostly negative as of late. Over the past five years, my relationship with my mother has turned to shit in all honesty. I just feel like she doesn't like me. It's like she wishes I was more like the other girls, girly, nice, and agreeable. That's just not me. I feel like I can't be myself and express my true emotions around her. One of the reason I even went to boarding school was to get away. Now I hate it, but that's another story. I just don't trust her. I think she's full of shit. Her personality is trash to me. We just don't get along. I just don't understand her way of thinking, and it makes me feel like alone and detached from family. Sometimes I think where the fuck did I come from. The expectation of acceptance was let down, and I'm stuck. I can only love people from a distance now because my relationship with my mom is fucked up. I don't have the means right now to deal with all of these emotions. I don't know what to do. I hate that she throws everything she's done for me like it was a favor. I'm your child. It's your responsibility to take care of me!! I didn't ask to be here. If you didn't want to take care of kids, then you shouldn't have had any. I'm not your vessel to live vicariously through. I am an individual with my own thought, opinions, and feelings. PERIOD!!! Stop acting like you own me. I am not property. I'm tired of people having kids and don't know how to raise them. Stop pushing societies standards of femininity on me. I don't give a fuck about society's rules when it couldn't care less about me as a human being. Stop trying to put me in a box. Let a girl live!!! Is that too much to ask???
