I honestly think Dianne has seen them more than Zoe has, and she’s only been on the scene 6 months!
somehow, seeing it laid out, seeing people talk about it, comparing her to Joe - makes me want to strive more to be a ‘joe’ compared to a Zoe in future!Well at least you are changing.I know this is going to sound awful but seeing the contrast between Zoe and Joe (in how they visit their families) really makes me stop and think, tbh I’ve always been a bit of a ‘Zoe’ don’t visit my extended family as much as I should...
She was still really close to her dad when she first moved to Brighton , yet there was no mention of her mum. She then seemed to switch from her dad to her mum ... now there isn’t much mention of her mum either. I feel so sorry for her grandparents !
I do think she sees her mum fairly regularly but that’s only because she goes to Brighton.Its the same with Joe he always has to go to her,those are literally the only two family members she sees
She'd rather be with the boring Deyes family. They'll have had a really savage day playing cards after their Sunday roast
Pretty sure they have like four between them if she didn't fancy driving her own
I agree. I love my Mum but she has some personality traits which hugely clash with mine. I don’t gush over her or make a fuss of her on social media and that’s fine. Well, to me it is. She’s probably pissed off.
She probably just sends them loads of money or expensive gifts and thinks that makes her a good person. Then they'd all feel guilty to call her out because she bought them such extraordinarily extravagant stuff & they feel "indebted" towards her.
I agree. I don’t ever really see my grandparents because we’re not close (and they’ve been horrible to my mum in the past). I see them maybe once, twice a year. Any more than that would be uncomfortable and honestly unbearable. Possibly Zoe doesn’t get on with her family? She certainly doesn’t seem bothered about seeing them
I have said this before, but sometimes the best way to stop toxic familiar relationships is to limit the contact. I love my family, but they hurted me so bleeping much. Whenever I go visit everything turns into tit (with my mum and grand parents, my dad left me when I was 13 and his parents died when he was a child, I haven´t talk to him since I was 15). This weekend my little brother -he is 20, I am 24-, came to the city where I live to visit and he was desperate to just leave the house; we chatted and he told me how he is treated as a slave and is being blackmailed by my grandma in order to stop him moving out to study his engeeniering degree; he even told me that Doña Yola (our housemade for more tha 15 years) told him to leave and that whenever he leaves she is going to quit. He told me that she stated that the main reason she kept working in our house was him and I.
