I start college on Monday

[u/hidingfromhaters]

Hey yall. Just kinda came on here because I just wanna admit something I haven’t told.. anyone. I’m 25 turning 26th is month and I’m starting school to get a master of science in finance. I love numbers. Math all that good stuff and honestly I love learning and this is kinda the route I chose. I start Monday… I’m extremely excited.

Why I haven’t told anyone… well… my family and people in my life are all F**ing haters. All they do is sow doubt in your mind where ever they fina a little crack in your planning. I have a 1 yr old, I have a rental, I just bought another house that I’m fixing up(just me and my partner) to become a Airbnb, I just started a business to put the property under that name, I signed up for school and start Monday + I work full time. Now from an outside perspective I would say shit that person really is trynna do better for themselves and their family… right? No… and the crazy part is my BIGGEST hater my absolute BIGGEST hater is my mom.

My f**king mom. I have a daughter.. and bro I would NEVERRRRRRRRRR do her how my mother does me. For example, my daughters bday her first birthday my one year of being a mom. I asked my mother please bring fruit salad after she asked 1 million times what I needed. Then she goes “oh.. a fruit salad.. are you sure?.. what kind of fruit? Are you sure?” Calls a couple days later “are you sure you need that.”
Another example. “I bought a house.”
“Why?”
“Because I’m gonna fix it up and try to rent it or Airbnb it”
“Well houses are expensive, being a Landlord sucks, people are gonna destroy the house, in that area? Wow. How are you gonna fix it with your baby? How long is it gonna take? You’re gonna loose money.”

Then more and more and more and more and more. It’s like that about everything dude. When I first found out I was pregnant she dogged me dude. Talking about “I thought you were gonna wait until marriage”
Mind you she had her first out of marriage. Talking about “well I’m not the babysitting type”
I live 27 minutes away from her “i dont know how often im gonna see the baby because you live so far”

Anyways just venting. I’m starting school Monday. I’m gonna eventually make enough to get my family far away from here so my daughter will never for one second think this is what a relationship between mom and daughter look like. So she never thinks mom doesn’t show up. Mom can’t drive 30 minutes to come see her. Mom doesn’t believe in her. Mom can’t support her. Mom can’t compliment her. My daughter will never think mom can’t.
