Hate my mother - Christmas

goose1

My mother is moron. The longest thing she's read in her life is the RTE Guide and even at that I'd say she struggled. She left school after failing her Junior Cert to go and be with a man who clearly didn't want her.
Unfortunately I was the product of this.

She used to roar at me how without her I wouldn't be able to get my uni grant....yes mother, if you weren't so hopeless and actually worked I couldn't get it. Well done. She did some cleaning as a job, without telling the government, to make some money. Her greatest peeve is people with husbands who have jobs. Women who work obviously were luckier than her when she was young! They had chances!

She is utterly obsessed with a pathetic showband 'star'. He, regrettably, gave her his number and she bombards him with needy,desperate texts. 'I know your busy
but why dont you talk to me. I realy like you.' (no reply) 'Happy christmas hope youve not been naughty'(No reply) 'Hey sexy havent heard from you in a while. I know your busy but can you talk soon'
Massive SIC on all that.

I'm moving to Singapore soon and as an only child would never usually consider anything other than Christmas with that lecherous bitch (who would be alone for the season without me) but I feel like not coming home?
Thoughts?

NOBODY would ever wanna talk to you but JESUS have SOME pride!!!!!

However, without me she'll be utterly alone and depressed. That guy certainly won't be there. Should I leave someone to cry alone on Christmas Day? She's a **** cook too so it'll be over a dry turkey.

I really hope you're a teenager, because your post is ridiculously immature. Why do you waste so much time judging your mother? That's a lot of energy that could be much better spent. And to be honest it sounds like you'd be doing her a favour by not coming home for Christmas... who wants to be around someone who thinks of them as a lecherous bitch.

Wow... I am going to be biased here and harsh. You are a petulant child. I cringed the whole time reading your post and not because of your Mam. Just You.

My Mam died last year and I'd give my own life to see her face, and the way you speak about yours is a disgrace, actually makes me feel a little ill. Do you and her a favour, don't bother going back to visit her at Christmas, you sound like a miserable person anyway.

Jesus, so much vitriol.

Your mother sounds like a woman who made poor choices in life, OP and who has maybe allowed it to make her bitter towards those who didn't make the same mistakes she did. That doesn't make her a fundamentally bad person though. It sounds like you blame her for the fact that your father didn't stick around, but the fact is that it takes two to tango, he is as much responsible for the situation as she was.

To answer your specific question, no, you're not obliged to go home for Christmas and quite frankly I think you'd be doing your mother a favour by staying away. I'd rather spend Christmas alone than with someone who holds me in as much disdain as you clearly do her.

So your mother is a flawed human being, like the rest of us. Grow up, strap on a pair and go spend a few days with her at Christmas.
