I Love My Mum But She Drives Me Crazy

And again she wants to control everything i do.. Even if i keep doing what she wants me to do.. Is this ever going to end? Lol, probably not.
According to her, i'm not doing a good job of being an almost-26 year old with no job or no marriage looming around! xD So i 'should' study harder, wake up earlier, go for running, lose some weight!
I asked her why, so she told me..so that i would get another degree, good job and a prospective guy. Lol.
So i asked her why would i need all that? What for?
She tells me, so that i have a good home, so that i'm happy, so that i don't end up alone.
And i asked...why do all that, when i already have a good home, and i'm happy being alone! That's like searching and ending up in the same place! Lol. I'm just plain lazy for all that!
She tells me that by doing all that studying, getting a degree or a job and marrying someone is supposed to make me happy...but what if i'm already happy being who i am?! xD
And she had no answers!
I know she meant good for me. And over the past year, i've come to love her and accept her the way she is. Her controlling nature doesn't drive me that crazy anymore..except just sometimes. Why should losing some weight or getting fit or marrying someone matter more than the inner happiness and peace? I wish she could understand that i'm not the same anymore, but she never looks past how i look or how i'm behaving. And it just makes me sad.

I guess moms and daughters are same everywhere, atleast most of them. If only the mothers would realize how and what their daughters go through. But no, mothers are always right and they always know the best! :|

No, dear. Not everywhere. My mom is not the same with my sister. And also, i have seem moms who are best friends with their daughters.
