- Go to I Need A Straight Jacket, A Padded Cell, Or Deep Waters To Drown Myself In!
Move!
Putting a couple thousand miles between me and my mad-making family was the best thing I ever did for my relationships with them!

I vote for moving back to
Boston. We can use another good bakery, there are excellent hospitals if you go the straight jacket route, then there's the Charles River or the Atlantic if you opt for cement shoes and deep water.

But the most fun will be getting you out of it :)

Why do they always want to marry single females off? I just can't see any valid reason... but I guess I would be planning to move too.

Well, you'll have a friend up here if you do move!
Besides, I think they were the fucked up ones... not you. Way to go Ma.

Wow, I guess I'm really lucky my mother doesn't do that. I know she doesn't want to see me alone for the rest of my life, but she also realizes that it's
my life! It's a good thing too, since I'm 36 now. That would send mothers like yours into a tail spin! And I vote for Boston. I've never been there but I've always wanted to see it. Sounds like my kind of place.

Mia...
Then you just learn to take what they say and tune it out and make your own decisions...you're the one who lives with the decisions you make...not them...just know that they are well intentioned...

i know exactly how you feel. My grandmother called me the other day and asked if i was seeing anyone. When I said no, she said "We'll don't you think its time you get on that? If you don't watch yourself you're going to end up a spinter." I'm 22.

Old Folks are that way, even if they're not that old.
I usually end such conversations by reminding the offending party that I am going to be responsible for whatever nursing home they ultimately wind up in...
