Being the 'Perfect Daughter' Feels Like a Full-Time Job 😩

Ever feel like being the 'good kid' in the family is more of a curse than a blessing? That’s me these days. My mom loves to brag about how caring I am, but honestly, every time she pops over to my apartment without warning, I just want to hide. The moment she leaves, I finally breathe again. I’ve tried to set boundaries, but she always says she just wants to spend time together. Then, I’m left feeling guilty for wanting my own space. She’s always cracking jokes and being playful, but sometimes I just can’t keep up, and I end up pretending to enjoy it for her sake. Have you ever felt trapped by your own kindness? I’d love to know how you deal with this. Sometimes, being the 'good daughter' is just plain exhausting! Let’s talk about it below. 🥲 #familydynamics #emotionalstruggles #relationshipdilemmas #FamilyRelationships
