With friends like these...

Dear mother,

When I say 'I have a stomach ache', I mean 'I'm not hungry, I'll eat when I am hungry, but I'm not hungry right now, because my stomach hurts.'

I am not;

1. Rejecting/spurning your concern.
2. Saying that I don't like your cooking.
3. Treating this house like a hotel.
4. Trying to tell you that I'm anorexic/bulemic/suffering some other kind of eating disorder.

I am;

1. Plagued with a delicate digestion and sometimes just can't stand to look at food.
2. Getting more and more irritated with you every time we have this same stupid argument.
3. Going to throw perfectly good food away if you try and make me eat something.

Perhaps most importantly, I'm twenty-one years old. I am still your daughter but I am not your baby. You don't need to and in fact have no right to tell me when and what to eat, so leave me alone.

Having a bit of a '-3-' day today.

I seem to be having them a lot lately...

FML.


That is all.
