Originally posted by mistyblue:I like TV... I keep plants cause they rid the place of odours...
girlie friends are out of the question... they talk too much about nonsense..
guy friends also I give up... and sometimes I rather not know them
I just like the peace and quiet... its very noisy with lots of kids running around
and then I realise I am asking turn on the light, wash this, do that cause my bf's mom is too lazy to get off the couch. I'm an easy going person so I do while people like my bf older brother, sister or sister-in-law would not do, so they are let off these things. Anyways, I'm only a gf. No commitment to his family and this is what happens. So I do not think I am that keen to become someone's maid ....

In the centre of orchard and north area.

yeah I was not willing to let the r/s progress any further. anyways I rent the whole unit from his mom, paid her in advance. paid for all the previous bills so that the unit does not get shut down. paid for lots of stuff which she promised to pay back ... never did and all forgotten.Originally posted by shinta:
guess i am very lucky.
my mom expects my bf to cook for the family, bring everyone out for dinner n everything.
lucky nel seldom appears at my place
hmm..Originally posted by mistyblue:yeah I was not willing to let the r/s progress any further. anyways I rent the whole unit from his mom, paid her in advance. paid for all the previous bills so that the unit does not get shut down. paid for lots of stuff which she promised to pay back ... never did and all forgotten.
she would use my unit whenever she wants and the last time was used to make dumplings to let her earn more money. I was left with a week of cleaning and scraping oil off the floor and walls. got scolded for nothing in front of his family cause the other tenant screw her.
help adjust her household fengshui and she got a lot of 4d strikes. gave advice when the SIL was preggie with 2nd kid but no one believed and was ridiculed that I never been a preggie don't know how preg-kit works. They didn' read the damn instructions!
Anyways. even my folks are hawkers and not educated, but they are people with grace, behaving fairly towards everyone and not take advantage. When he comes over to my mom's place, I had to serve my bf hand and foot. Anwyays, I realise I cannot expect that of everyone and especially other people's mom. Besides, her cooking always makes me sick .... She might be endearing to her own kids. Certainly after being bossed around and getting all sort of sh!t from her... I have other views which I know I cannot share with my bf ... he made it clear he will side his family no matter what. So I told him he's already married to his family. He never needed me. So I look for my own outlet and avoid his family at all costs.
the SIL didn't listen nor she believe. The MIL asked and so I gave my views about these test kits is not always correct and she need to get tested by a doc. She dragged her feet for 3-4 months before going and all the while vomitting due to morning sickness. Everyone was all worried for her wondering what's wrong. All the food and cooking were all geared towards making her feel good and etc. She also used the excuse to avoid all work and just lie down there like a whale. So one time I was making wanton soup for their family. She happened to come by with earlier. The MIL treated me like a maid and started making loud noise I was slow and shove me aside and serve up the half cooked pot of soup where they drank until not much left and I had to start cooking all over again. Was trapped in the kitchen for hours serving everyone. At the end I was so fed up I quickly ate and go home. This is the kind of thing I am going to get, then really I see no point. Anyways, the SIL stayed in their house for 7 years sleeping with her BF (oldest brother) free loading off them all this time and the MIL always pity her cause she's m'sian and she think she had a difficult time with the previous rental. I paid for my rental and still get sh!t from her and she give me the attitude that I am "using" her son. Actually I paid the down payment for his car. I paid for his last trip to US and sometimes I paid for his petrol where he would go ferry everyone around. I had to put up with his temper and such. Seriously. At this point. I am happy to remain single.Originally posted by shinta:hmm..
we're in a kinda similar situation, tho mine doesn seem to be as bad as yours.
nel's mom would be like ur parents? "people with grace, behaving fairly towards everyone and not take advantage"
"gave advice when the SIL was preggie" hmm at least she bothers to listen
"he will side his family no matter what" so far things are all nice.... so
his family sides me..
