I think that's because you tend to post what you consider your failuresWhy is it often assumed I don’t attempt anything or haven’t when I actually have?
Let me ask this: that injection you received the other day - what was it? What was it for? Why are you getting it and for how often? What are its side effects, if any?Why is it often assumed I don’t attempt anything or haven’t when I actually have?
No, my mother has been a control freak ever since I was a child. She even has called herself that and wears it with pride. She was constantly telling my siblings and myself things such as “Don’t touch that/don’t do that/don’t say that or I will spank your butt with a belt!”, “Don’t talk to that person, you’ll bug them! You’ll embarrass me!”, “Don’t wear those clothes, you’ll make me and your dad look bad!”, and more. When she would really get upset with us, she would say “I should’ve had my tubes tied when I was in high school!” and wish she never had become a parent as well as beg “God” to help her.Gee ... could that be the reason your mother is - what do you call her? - a "control freak?"
Yeah I hate to say it Mark but she sounds like just about every other parent out there, especially in Southern culture. You're 35 now you're going to have to come to terms with it.No, my mother has been a control freak ever since I was a child. She even has called herself that and wears it with pride.

But isn’t doing the same things repeatedly supposed to be unproductive?I think that's because you tend to post what you consider your failures
way more often than giving an account of any steady repeated efforts.
Are there no production lines in Texas?But isn’t doing the same things repeatedly supposed to be unproductive?
Let's see.But isn’t doing the same things repeatedly supposed to be unproductive?
I don't know why you think so many people dislike you.Why does it seem ok for other people to dislike me?
Unless she comes up too you which I use to think was impossible and would never happen in a million years. Was I ever wrong. You know the saying that there is a first time for anything. I now believe it.Trying to make connections with the opposite sex in the service sector is almost mission: impossible. Too little opportunity to build rapport, unless you're very socially skillful which we arent !
That never happens to me you're doing something right!!Unless she comes up too you which I use to think was impossible and would never happen in a million years. Was I ever wrong. You know the saying that there is a first time for anything. I now believe it.
It never happened to me for over 40+ years until it did. BTW never happened in kindergarten. I could not believe it.That never happens to me you're doing something right!!
Because it IS okay to not like someone, especially if they are not likeable.Why does it seem ok for other people to dislike me?
