My boyfriend keeps doing this. Yes I realize I'm stressed, I'm taking 5 courses right now, all of which require massive amounts of homework, and creative thinking (I'm going for Graphic Design), and yes his mother is here right now, and having company stresses me out too, but I am not always in a bad mood.
Then he keeps saying it over and over until I AM in fact in a bad mood. Yes I'll blow up at him, because he's making me crazy. Today he tells me that I always say that the things he wants to make for dinner etc are gross, or that I don't like them, well that's true, I do tell him I don't like them. He only really likes to make a few different things, I'm sick of the majority of them. I don't tell him in a mean way or anything, I just let him know that I'll eat it but it's not really what I like.
His mom on the other hand, hates everything. Seriously, it's aggravating eating with her, because she complains about everything. EVERYTHING is gross to her, and she'll vocally let anyone around know, yet he says nothing to her. Taking her to dinner is a nightmare, because she complains about every detail. Not to mention the fact that she salts EVERYTHING, heavily, even before tasting it. And complains about the prices of everything, because apparently things should be the same price as they were 20 years ago.
She also goes on about how old she is, she's not, she's like 54, my mom is going to be 59 this year. I'd never consider my mom old. The thing with the BF's mom is that she's a pretty heavy smoker. She was a 2-pack a day smoker for a long time (she's smoking a bit less now), and refuses to quit. Yes I realize it's not easy, but when she's complaining about her breathing every day, and can't taste things properly it's the smoking. She also lives on a small income, and really, when she's complaining about the cost of everything, yet still buying several cartons of smokes a month at close to $100 a pop.
I think I'm just being driven insane by having company, she's been here for 2 weeks, and she's here until Wednesday... While I do like her, We live in a one bedroom apartment, and dammit I like to walk around my house nekkid! *ahem*
