The huge criticism

 Hi, 

Today’s story will be a bit unpleasant. I'm not happy with what happened to me, but oh well, that's how it is. But let’s move to it. 

One day, it was my dad's birthday and the whole family was supposed to gather. Mom was preparing a celebration at home for this occasion. I came to my parents with my boyfriend. We dressed as best we could. I was wearing a shirt ironed so that there was not a single wrinkle, a pleated skirt and brand new sneakers. That’s how my mom liked it when I dressed like that. But not today. I entered the house first. I saw my aunt helping my mother with preparations. I looked at my mother and I could already see from her face that she didn't like the way I looked. But she didn't say it out loud in front of her aunt. Then my boyfriend came in and my mother smiled at the sight of him. I was sad that my mother greeted me so coldly and his just the opposite. Then I saw my dad. He was happy we arrived. Suddenly, my mum took me aside to the guest room. The criticism began. She said I looked like a peasant in those clothes and what I did with my hair, she criticized my make-up, shoes and everything else. She said that my shoes and skirt were dirty, but the shoes were new and the skirt was washed. She criticized me all the time. I finally couldn't stand it anymore. I told her literally that she pisses me off and that she always has to ruin everything. But of course I can’t reach an agreement with my mother. The first tears appeared in my eyes because I was so damn sorry. And then I was in the kitchen. Mom joined in and asked why I was crying when she told me the truth. She told me that I could have put more effort into my appearance and not put on such a show in front of my family. Mom sent my boyfriend to take her dog for a walk. My boyfriend said he wanted to go alone. But I couldn't stand it there anymore either. I went to put on my shoes quickly. Dad reminded me that my boyfriend wanted to go alone. I said he doesn't have to go with me if he doesn't want to. But I looked at my boyfriend and said: just think if you really want this. He knew perfectly well what I meant, I wanted him not to be surprised later that I would have a grudge and resentment towards him. Dad asked me not to leave him alone but I apologized and said I couldn't do it anymore. I ran out and went straight to a place called Chess. I looked back and saw that my boyfriend wanted to go in the same direction as me but when he saw me he changed his mind. I was sad that he was leaving me at such a moment. I found a secluded place and just sat and cried.

It was very hard story to survive. I have no idea what got into my mom but she's never spoken to me like that before. May this story never see the light of day. I hope. What do you think about this story? Let me know. 

See ya soon. 

Bye :)
