My Dad is the best man any woman could ever imagine, basically my blueprint for a future husband. Quiet and peaceful but knows when and how to lead. I wouldn't choose any other person to father me.
My mum, I've always adored her but I can't say much about that anymore. My parents look about 10 years younger than their ages but it seems to get into her head more. She loves attention and honestly, it's very annoying that it's basically all she thinks about. Not achievements or work. Ever since graduating from the University 15+ years ago, she hasn't worked once but had a shop which got demolished by the government. She keeps bugging my Dad to go and collect her University certificate when he's very busy with work and she does nothing but stay at home and take pictures all day.
Now, things are financially tight... My Dad is trying to help i and my other sibling who just graduated to find their feet and also paying huge fees as my younger siblings just got into the university but she still bugs him everyday about money to get a new shop or get her a job. It's annoying because everyday I see this man loosing weight and becoming moody even when I try to lift his spirit.
Some months ago, I was using my mom's phone when I came across a message from a male friend of hers from her University who talks to her for hours and sends endearing messages which honestly just irritate me. I'm beginning to think it's because of this that she's become more hostile to my Dad and he doesn't deserve it... She doesn't deserve him.
I'm leaving the house soon and I'm scared that she'd disturb my Dad into a high BP or something that he doesn't deserve. I've thought of talking to her but everytime we talk it always ends up with her shouting and nagging (Something that gave me trauma as a young kid). I'm really scared about the fact that my Dad will be left alone with her and none of his Children to cheer him up after her constant nags. How can I handle this please?
