I've been writing a novel and I initially want to publish it on Wattpad but this platforms seems to be not in the hype anymore and less readers are bringing it up. I am looking for other platforms. What do you guys recommend?
Hi! I’m a 1st year college student (18F), and I feel like my mom constantly invades my privacy. Ever since I first had social media accounts, she’s always asked for my passwords so she could “monitor” me. Back then, I understood her point because I was still a kid. But now, I’m officially an adult, and it still hasn’t changed.
I can’t even try to defend my privacy because she immediately says things like, “So you don’t need me anymore?” or accuses me of hiding something. It’s really frustrating because it feels like she has to know every single thing I do. It’s suffocating. I feel like I have no freedom.
I already gave her access to my Messenger, and now she wants my Instagram and even my email passwords too. She says she does it because she wants to know what’s going on in my life since I don’t really open up to her. Growing up, she was always busy working, so I never got used to sharing things with her.
The problem is, whenever she reads something she doesn’t like — even harmless inside jokes with friends — she tells me to delete them. What makes it worse is that she shares what she reads with my aunts, and they gossip about it until practically everyone in the house knows.
It’s ironic because instead of making me more open with her, it just taught me how to hide things better and filter everything I say. She says this is her way of catching up with my life, but honestly, I just don’t want things to be this way.
I don’t know what to do :((
Hi! I am a 1st Year College Student (18F) and super nai-invade ng ng mom ko yung privacy ko. All the time since my socials are made, kinukuna niya yung pssword para mamonitor daw niya ako. Okay, GETS ko yung point niya pero not until today na I am officially an adult. Gets ko uto nung bata pa ako e pero ngayon? I couldn’t even resist or try to defend my privacy kasi sasabuhin niya na “kaya” ko na daw ang sarili lo at hindi ko na siya kailangan or di naman idadahilan niya na baka may tinatago daw ako.
Nakakafrustrate lang talaga na parang every galaw mo dapat alam niya. Nakakasakal. Wala akong laya. Binigay ko na pati messenger ko, ngayon pati IG at email is gusto niya na ding kunin.
Kaya daw niya ginagawa yon para malaman mga ganap ko pero I feel like nai-invade lang ako. Tyaka malaman niya daw ang nangyayari sakin (coz i don’t really share things w my mom kasi all her life working siya so di ako sanay). Tapos kapag may nabasa siyang di niya bet or inside jokes na sa tingin niya ay di niya bet, ipapadelete niya sa akin yon.
Ang ironic lang kasi dahil sa ginagawa nyang yan, natututo akong i-mask yung mga sasabihin ko kesa yung totoo. And the worst part, she would share it sa mga tita ko. They’d make gossips about it hanggang sa malaman na ng buong bahay.
Way niya daw yon para makapag catch up siya sa life ko. Pero ayaw ko kasi ng ganon e.
