um.. idk if I should be saying this on here sorry
so my mom always gave me hugs and kisses since I was a little kid and I had absolutely nothing against her kissing me on the lips but now that I'm a teen, I feel really uncomfortable. I've tried telling her to not do it multiple times but then she gets mad at me and makes me feel guilty. am I overreacting?
sorry I know I shoudn't be posting this on here but
wait literally, I can relate to this. I live in an asian household where apparently it's normal to touch someone else's butt and kiss them on the lips, but I'm very uncomfortable with that. I've told my family members several times that I hate when they do that to me, but they just ignore me and say things like "don't you love me?" and "it's normal...... 3 reply
My mom still tries getting me to call my dad daddy at 15 even though she has him as daddy in her phone. The word daddy has gotten sexualized the the point where I absolutely hate it. So no. I don't think you're overreacting. Your mom just needs to accept that it's not appropriate anymore reply
umm also it would be helpful if y'all just told me not to post this kind of stuff again if we shouldn't be posting things like this on here instead of getting mad 1 reply
thats weird tbh... just say straight up that ur uncomfortable. my mother tries to cuddle me at times but i always refuse as i dont really like receiving affection. but ngl that affection is kinda weird tho, im not in the position to say that as i dont know u nor ur family but if ur uncomfortable just say so reply
No you are not overreacting you have every right to feel uncomfortable. There’s some things that you just grow out of and you grew out of kissing your mother on the lips now that you’re older. I did the same I don’t do that no more. If she doesn’t wanna listen I would just curve her every time and just end up kissing her on the cheek. Do no...... reply
I'm not a relationship expert, but you're probably not overreacting. She should know how to draw boundaries on kissing, especially when it's on the mouth, and respect her child's wishes when they feel uncomfortable. reply
I don't think you're overreacting. I know other parents do it, but my parents have never kissed me on the lips, just on the cheek. To me, it always surprised me when I saw parents do it to their children (my uncle does it to my cousins) but I know that people have their own ways of raising children.
Now that you're a teen, I think it's understanda...... reply
noo, you should not feel guilty for what makes you uncomfortable. she's your mom and i'm sure she'll be able to get over it. if you're okay with hugging, then she may just be fine with that in the end. please don't feel guilty for what makes you uncomfortable- speak up like you've been doing and stand by what you say. i hope everything gets situate...... 1 reply
