Bro I have this Christmas gathering in January with my extended family and it's exactly that. I have to sit awkwardly in the living room while I get bombarded with questions like "How's your college search going?" And I have to be polite even though I really don't want to talk to anyone. Not to mention that one of my cousins is a month older than me and her mom is always bragging how she's already got a place set up for her in a college in Colorado and she won't have any student loans because her family is rich AF and is paying for it all. I have to pretend to be happy for her when in reality I want to yell at her to **** off. It's like, just because your daughter is so wonderful and is going to be the pride and joy of this family doesn't mean I give one crap about it. I'm trying to get my own life in order without hearing that my cousin has everything handed to her on a silver platter. SMH.
