			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>My mom still thinks of me as her little girl. like i am 15! Like, she cant trust me. she knows in the back of her mind, that she CAN trust me. i have always been really responsible, &amp; intelligent. and she tells me, too. but when it comes down to this guy that im tryna go out with, she gets all crazy!<br />
 <br />
i am now 20 years old. i work 45 hours a week and i will be going to school this January. ive been working since i was 17, and im really starting to get to know this guy and its going really great. like all we do is flirt and talk, and make out. =] a couple times i tried to go out with him, and my mom has stopped that. the only time that i went out with him was last summer, to the mountain for a hour before he had to go to work, so that was like nothing. she just thought that we were friends, but now that she sees that all we do is text and stuff, she wants him to GO AWAY. for no reason, she never met him to judge him!! <br />
 <br />
she does know that he is Mexican, and im American.. shes not racist, but she told me that she believes in staying in your own race as it comes down to dating.. <br />
 <br />
last week, she wrote a note on the passengers side door to MY CAR. because i pick him up on wednesdays for work. i didnt see the note, cause i wasnt on that side of the car. but as he got in, he said there was a note there. i know that it was from my mom, she had my car last. because she doesnt have her own!   i got ahold of it, and it said: Do not try to go out with Jaclyn tomorrow. Stay Away! <br />
 <br />
SOO EMBARRASING!! =/<br />
 <br />
A few months ago, when she found out that i was gonna go out with him, she hid my car keys and wouldnt give it up! a couple hours into arguing, crying, and begging, i gave up and just texted him and told him i got in a fight with the parents and couldnt go out. <br />
 <br />
i dont understand why she is doing this to me. she is normal any other time, ive never tried to get involved with anybody before so its just like the first time im seeing her like this. she wants me to hide from the world forever?? my aunt thinks she is crazy when it comes down to this too!! she told her to just let me live and be young, have a good time while i can. <br />
 <br />
this guy is so sweet to me, and he is really nice. i dont wanna eventually like scare him away. we only get to hang out at work.. id like to hang out with him outside of work!! ya know? its just CRAZY.. i dont know what to do!<br />
 <br />
any advice is appreciated!! thanks alot ;)</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>My mom and i never really got along. She never cared about what i wanted, it always was more important to her what her friends thought or what she wanted. Ever since i was little she just  killed my every single dream or little wish, starting with my dream of starting a certain sport and ending with weekends when there was something important on tv and she took me in a stupid family gettaway instead where we pretended to be a happy family. I'm 20 now and she keeps controlling my life as is i was a kid. About 6 months ago she forced me to go in a family weekend and made a tremendous scandal because i didn't want to go and i finally went. Ever since i secretely despise her and it's so hard to me to even look at her without repulsing her. I don't have a job and i can't afford to move out, but living with my parents is like living in a prison. I don't know what to tell her to make her realize i will never forgive her for what she did that weekend and i don't want her meddling in my life anymore. She's just a burden. I'm thinking she's either the most selfish person in this world or she has a mental illnes which keeps her from seeing the truth: I'm not a kid!!! Any suggestions? :(</div>
