Caught in a Financial Tug-of-War with My Mom 😳💸

Last night, I was lying awake on our tiny couch, headphones in, escaping reality with some TV. When I finally crawled into our cramped bed, I thought I'd get some peace. Instead, I woke up to my mom doing something I never wanted to witness. It's not the first time, but it never gets less disturbing. We’re stuck sharing a room because we can’t afford anything else—every dollar is a battle, every purchase is questioned. I’m angry, confused, and honestly, I feel trapped. We can’t even have privacy, let alone financial independence. How do you even talk about boundaries or money when you can’t even get a moment alone? Has anyone else dealt with this level of awkwardness and tension? What would you do if you were me? 😩💔 #FamilyFinance #AwkwardLiving #MoneyMatters #RomanticRelationships
