So my mom lives in North Carolina and I haven't seen her in almost a year. We talk on the phone almost everyday. We are really close. She is coming to visit me this weekend. She flys in tomorrow evening. I am super excited. The main reason she is coming this weekend is because I am going dress shopping on Saturday. So here is where I am really annoyed and hurt. My mom told me that her and my step dad could not afford for the plane ticket out here. We couldn't find anything cheap. I told her that I would pay for half. So said that would work. Then a couple days after I paid for the ticket I was talking to my sister and told her about it. She said that is was bullshit that my mom had said that because she had just bought a new dog for $300. I know that her life does not revolve around my wedding but it was a little hurtful. I just kind of brushed it off. Then a few days after that my mom called me and asked how much money she would have to spend while she was here, because she wanted to buy a new iphone. I was blown away. I had just spent money I really didn't have so she could be here because she said she didn't have it. Again I just blow it off and forget about it. Then today she calls me wanting to know if I paid the fee for her checked bags and acted surprised when I said no. I know she didn't mean she expected me to pay for it but I am just at my wits end with her about it. I am so hurt. I feel like she doesn't even care. I have wanted to cry all afternoon. Ok my vent is done.
