when I’m finding jobs, she keep saying why find so long? Alot of jobs should be very easy to find, dk what’s difficult.
when I got an offer and shared the gd news with her, she just say the pay not even high enough and why took so long, nothing happy
I just want to share my happy news, but it seems she cannot be ever happy for me. My father, dont care. He just say ok, go work.

Here are what netiezns think:
- There are ppl who can never be happy for others and must make sure they say stuff to make the other party feel crappy. My mother is someone like that too. It’s just how some ppl work. U only can learn how to ignore such toxicity. Else your life will be miserable.
- When our parents behave differently from our ideal expectations… Quite often and common especially for Asian parents. Actually we need to sympathize them because when they were young, they also don’t have such ideal parents in their upbringing. They had their own challenges and disappointment, and no one to talk to, they also work so hard to have a family and survive in Singapore (highly demand country) to raise you as a kid. In their lives… They have one motivation. Is to ensure you live well or grow up well, as they work hard for the family.
- First – congratulations on getting a job! Nowadays pretty challenging. All the best ya! Side note – i think it’s time you start planning your independence i.e. Moving out. Have a plan and work towards it. Your dad I think is still ok. His response is pretty much like “birthday is a normal day” so i can see why he isn’t exactly jumping for joy. The concern is your mother. She has issues and she’s projecting. It’ll hurt you and your r/s deeply in the long run. But this is just based in what you said ya. I’m not pushing you to sever ties or anything
