I’ve had some roughly patches with my mom too. We’re very close now, but she still sometimes drives me crazy. The thing I have to remind myself, and I really hope this applies to you and helps you, is that becoming a mother doesn’t make you perfect. Everyone is flawed - some people can be self centered or overly critical. Just keep that in mind and take things with a grain of salt.

He didn’t deserve you. Cheating is the lowest thing you can do. His loss!

Anyone familiar with Indian culture?

Hey guys! Sorry it’s been awhile since I’ve been on this site. All of my Indian male cousins have full beards, it’s the trend right now. They keep it trimmed though! My husband has a beard too and he’s white lol. I think as long as you keep it clean, you should be fine to interview with a beard. (Although I’m sure your interview has come and gone by now!)

Parents

Sounds like helicopter parenting. Sometimes parents just want to protect their children so badly that they can become overly critical or bossy.

Now, this next thing I say you might not care for. I think that part of helicopter parenting is enabling your children too. I’m guessing that your parents don’t charge you rent? Even with the lower paying job, you should be focusing on saving up your money and moving out or contributing to the household.

Your parents aren’t going to be around forever. No one is ever around forever. Treasure the people you have in your life while they’re around and helping you and don’t take them for granted.

@Araz uncle passed away last night.

Thank you all very much for your kind words and prayers. My uncle was a surveyor at a construction site in Pakistan. There was an accident. Since it’s Pakistan, and not here, there are no repercussions 😔 My mom is hopefully going there for a month (I’ll temporarily run her business while she’s gone).

I’m ok, I’m just sad and tired. I haven’t really had a moment to sit and think about it. I’m more worried about my cousin overseas by himself and my mom.

This is a long one, so please bear with me.

Can you both get any time off work to go away fora few days?

Often being away from normal life, not having to rush around can help.
You can just enjoy each others company and get to talking in a relaxed atmosphere without any pressure.

That sounds like a fantastic idea. We really need to make this happen!
