My stepmother is like that, and even worse...... she's a "close talker". 🙄

That's a lotta stress that you don’t need right now(being w/baby). To spend hours on the phone when you’re tired from working, being a single mom and being pregnant- has to be incredibly exhausting. It’s really inconsiderate when you try to get off the phone nicely, she’s pulling you back.

@MellyMel22 I feel like I'm constantly complaining about the situations and people in my life but I keep encountering the same situations.
They say that people don't have respect for them but they forget it's a 2 way street. I'm so over all of this because no matter what I do they won't change.
So now I just decided I'll do what I need to do for myself, Sod them. If they can't figure out their own problems that's no longer anything to do with me. I have my own to take care of.
Sorry mum, sorry friend... Not sorry!

@Mellowgirl People who are empathetic are magnets to things/people like this.
You’re absolutely right. You have to do what’s best for you and your babies.

@Lilymoon the thing is I could understand if I was there begging for her help. Getting upset because she's tired. That she can't help me financially. But actually I've tried to find solutions to all the problems and it's still a problem.
She should just be honest and say she's only doing this because if anyone asks then she can say she tried to help.

You’re in your thirties. Is it not long past time you stood on your own two feet?

@AdmiralPrune unfortunately the circumstances are that we are co parenting
