My mom was offended when I told her I didn't want to talk but watch tv
latest #12
And then turned around and talked to my dad 15 minutes later
Let's get this straight. Day in and day out since I was a little girl
All you've ever done is bit cheaper about your day and expect me to listen
Or spread gossip about the relatives at work
Never anything positive. Never anything mentally stimulating
My dad on the other hand. Wants to learn more about issues. Has valid questions on moral viewpoints and political situations
Things relevant to the world that I like to think about
You've never once asked about my day without either making it about yourself, or understanding the concept of excessively nosy and personal
We have almost nothing in common in interests
You've always made me feel ashamed of wanting to learn things about myself that a mother should teach her daughter
In short being around you and being forced to be in conversation with you. About things you like
one of the most mentally exhausting things I've grown up with
