I Am Dealing With Family Issues
Im at this point in my life where I’m so done with my family. I value family so much but my family is making me want to move far far away. Not my mom. But everyone else. Recently I became vegetarian for ethical and health reasons and my aunts children pick on me for it. They call me a hippie and a bunch of other things. They will look at me and laugh when I say I can’t eat something because of the meat or when I send food back at a restaurant because there’s meat in it. They think it’s dumb. But they constantly pick on me for it. We have family dinner every month on a Sunday and I constantly get picked on by everyone. Whether it’s what I say or what I wear. Im just done with it. And if I’m not getting picked on, im getting completely ignored like I’m not actually there, or they will ask about school and stuff like that and then try to one up me with their child’s accomplishments. It’s so irritating. On our last dinner two sundays ago, I finally reached my point of enough and went off on everyone. I basically just said “you know everytime I’m here or with all of you, I get picked on or either ignored, you all treat me like shit. But That’s okay because I’m going to college in 1 year and I’m going to a different country and never coming back”. That shut everyone up. I just don’t know what to do anymore. And sorry for the long paragraph
