I had a stepmom like that. she was the pretty lady who new all the latest trends and I was the tomboy bookworm for my birthday she gave me acne cream! than told me my wardrobe was out of trend and insisted on taking me shopping and buying these horrendous skirts!!! I know it may sound nice to be looking out for my best interests but its not me!

if you despereately want to be in her good books to foster a nice relationship, find things that she likes and try to do them with her? but I found that relationship-fostering shopping trip just made me become a different person that I didint like.

my uncle is just a social weirdo. it has been given up by all my family ever trying to get on good terms with him, excluding xmas when he gets drunk and acts “normal”
