my family talks too much

ahh i hate how my relatives talk to my parents and tell them that maybe they should spend more time with me and nurture me more because thats why i started smoking pot (which is soo not the case its just something i happen to like). and my aunts always like telling me she loves me when she sees me and says i can talk to her whenever i want. its like they think im smoking as an "escape". its like they think im being neglected so i smoke. *sigh* they just dont understand. its just one of my many hobbies. i like to smoke! i tried to tell them but they dont get it.

 

i dont know if its a good idea to tell em its a hobby for you. my friend did that and shes getting ready to be sent to an institute in green bay cuz they think she has a problem. but maybe you should ask your parents if they wanted to smoke with you, and if they get mad tell em your kidding but if they dont, who knows....

 

You think you got it bad? Ok if anything happens to me my entire familly finds out about it, ALL of them. I get calls from relatives in florida bitching at me for getting arrested. It really pissed me off when my ex girlfriend IMed me asking me why I did ether. "How the fuck did you find out about that?"
"Oh... Aaron [my cousin]"
"How did he know?"
"His mom told him"
"And I suppose my mom told her?"
"I think so."

Its so fucking irritating. When I leave this country, I don't think I'll be sending a postcard

 

you ripped the words right out of my mouth. i think the truth with my parents is that they feel too proud to have a stoner son. they dont understand that for some people weed is more than something you do every now and then, its a way of life. i really feel that im drifting from my parents because of their incessant nagging about my marijuana habits. its come to the point where i cant stand to be around them even though i really do love them.

 

oh i know what you mean. i hate the gossip. my moms a pro. everytime i get in trouble, the whole family knows, and so do all of their friends. i hate being the topic of conversation. my dad does it too, to a lesser extent. and then they cant understand when i get upset about it. i love them, they're great, but when i hear it from the whole family, i feel like such a fuck up.

but i dont like to have to lie about my situation either. my grandpa and my grandpa are the only ones in the family who are in the dark. they dont know that i dropped out of school to get my ged or that im on probation for drugs. they dont know about any of it, and i was talking to them today for fathers day, about them comming to my graduation next year. and i had to go along with it. just dont want to dissapoint them. grandparents are weird like that. they have this view of you as an innocent child. you have to live up to that.
