My boyfriend told me his grandparents asked him how come I always sneak out when I leave *blush*. Of course, I'm too embarrassed to tell them their presence makes me anxious and that's why I try to come and go quietly and inconspicuously. The sad part is he told me they were making fun of me saying I hide in the hall waiting for them to leave then dash to my car. The even sadder part....even though they were just joking, they're right - that's pretty much exactly what I do. Makes me feel like a pathetic joke of a human. My boyrfriend just asked me to come over so I'm about to leave but I'm nervous his entire, humongous family will be at his grandparents' house and I'll have to pass through all of them to reach my bf. Part of me feels frustrated, like "Why can't you have a normal family where it's just you, your parents, and maybe a couple of siblings? Why do your parents, sister, grandparents, both aunts, and all your cousins ALL have to live right there in a circle watching each other!?"
