Princess1980 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I have been single for a long time, nearly 7 years since I had my son in 2003. I met this wonderful fella through a friend and we are very happy we have been together 5 months. My mum has a illness which is largely weight related so cannot do a lot for herself, I do most things cleaning, cooking and personal care, I have a younger brother who lives with her and is useless cannot do a thing. He seems to get away with blue murder. I don’t want him to do a lot but I think that doing a few tasks around the house to help me (such as loading the dishwasher and wiping the sides and putting rubbish out) wouldn’t hurt him. Now I have met my new partner I don’t go round to mums at the weekend, and I get "punished" for this, the brother does nothing to help. I often have the whole weekend of pots and cleaning to do. Why does my mum accept this? When I was younger and she was able bodied id have never got away with this!! if I bring this up it causes rows and I get moaned at, do you think i'm being selfish by having a life of my own after all these years, i’m 30 in a few weeks and I think I deserve to be happy without getting all the little digs are sarcastic comments Link to post Share on other sites
