My mom doesn’t even try.

I literally have no friends with my same interests, and when I try to show her something I liked… she doesn’t even listen??

First, it was when I talked to her about how sad but cute was a song that my favorite artist released talking about drug use and how much he will always love his best friend etc, and she did not even seem to care. Afterwards, while we were on an argument, she told me that she didn’t want me to talk about that singer with her again. And so I did. I don’t talk to her about him.

Now, happened minutes ago, I showed her plushies I found cute from a brand that I recently discovered. Did NOT tell her to buy one for me. Just showing. And she immediately assumed I wanted her to buy one?? She asked if the web was from China and I said “No, from the USA” and she went “Shipping costs more than the plushie” which isn’t even true, the shipping is free.

Then this woman wonders why I hit her… I know it isn’t right but it is something that I do because of my situation with her and more problems I have overall.
