Day 23

FUCK THIS. I want to be here for my mom, but if she is going to be a bitch and lie straight to my face I can’t do it.  During the first 90 days of her recovery she isn’t supposed to have a boyfriend. Well, she’s been talking to this guy she met at her work that’s in AA too but she says as just friends.  kay, well they may not be dating but I know damn well you don’t talk to just a friend that long on the telephone. For instance, last night after her meeting she came home and said something like “Well, I need to go to bed. I wish it wasn’t a work night so I could stay up, but i’ve got payroll tomorrow.”  So, she goes to her room. I finish my movie, then go back to my room to get another movie, and I hear her talking on the phone to that guy. What happened to needing to go to bed? No, she lied and then went to her room to talk to this guy for hours before actually going to bed. Then she received flowers from him today congratulating her on her first week of sobriety. SURE. Just friends. He even told her he’s going to wait around for the 90 days so he can take her to dinner.  Again, JUST FRIENDS.

So, of course, I, trying to be the best help that I can, tell her that she shouldn’t be doing this and that it’s against rules. But she tells me “we’re not dating”  Not dating but talking to someone as if you are dating is the same fucking thing, it’s just not official. But she doesn’t see it this way.  So, now she says I need to stay out of her business, so I’m doing just that. She even told me to go live with my dad. She’s going to regret it when I’m gone and she has no one here to talk about this with.  Oh, wait, no she wont. She’ll have Bill. WHAT THE FUCK EVER. So much for her trying to be a different person.
