mum

She’s your mom, but she treats you like you belong only to her. Anytime you try to date, she shuts it down—either by guilt-tripping you or saying no one will ever care for you the way she does. She constantly compares you to your father, pointing out how much you look like him, like she can’t let go of the past. She’s overly affectionate, hugging and clinging even when you tell her to stop. She insists you stay home, saying she’ll take care of everything, and it’s gone so far that she controls the house—locking doors and keeping the key so only she can leave.
