I don't get it /fit/, is she hating because I'm fit or am I legitimately a manchild?
Your moms just a cunt.
She sounds like a bitch
You should move out
Kill your mom and molest the corpse
Your the cool older relative that all the cousins are excited to see. your moms a cunt

She's hating because you're a fit manchild.
Also cut off contacts with people you have no use for.
Family ties aren't strong enough to support excess adipose tissue.

She is, but in my family we're quick to call eachother out on bullshit and no one said a thing. I don't really care what they think though just trying to understand how this makes me a manchild.
>>41275820
I did, the only reasons I still go to these is out of habit and because my cousins love me
it looks like your mom needs a good dicking session.
>>41275775
Maybe she's jealous your having fun? Regardless growing up is basically a small death. You just spend your entire life working and doing the same monotonous shit every single day without an ounce of excitement or adventure. I'm assuming your uncle is older than you? He's probably a cool guy. The most cliché thing I will probably say all day is: "just be yourself". If your changing who you are to make other people happy, you've already made your first mistake.
>>41275775
the only way you're being a manchild is not sticking up for yourself. If you want to play dodgeball(which by the way is a really dumb thing for her to be annoyed by) then fucking do it, don't let bitches hold you down
>>41275775
There's nothing wrong with chilling with younger family members and having fun.
I think your Mom was just bored with the conversation or w/e and was just projecting onto you as someone to blame.
>>41275775
Sounds like a fat cunt to me
>>41275775
some moms are just nasty but you must deal with it.
playing with the kids is great, those are the relatives who are missed most when they pass.

Yea my uncle's pretty chill, he's 32 and we grew up together, I see him more as a brother desu
>>41275870
lmao I've told her to fuck off with her shit multiple times (this isn't the first time). Nowadays I just ignore her, I have no reason to justify my behavior to her
