Misguided Way to survive family dinner

I hate my family. Okay well most of them for good reasons but I still show up to family dinner because of free food. Here's the misguided way to survive the unwanted family dinner.


Look good While being a bitch


Wear what your heart desires. Be sexy, comfy, and confident. Every family dinner I get the side-eye because of what I wear when in reality I wear normal clothes. So my boobs show a little or my shorts are shorts it doesn't matter. Wear what makes you comfortable.


Have a designated hiding spot


We always have family dinner at my grandma's house so I always have a hiding spot that I go to when things get overwhelming or I don't want to deal with anyone right now and that is the bathroom floor. I will sit there and just plan on my phone or just breathe no one will care they just see someone from there don't question it. So find a spot that makes you feel safe and just relax for a second.


Listen but ignore

I hear everything even if they don't think I hear it so I know what they think about me. Of course, I'm going to ignore it because I'm the better person in the situation I'm not going to start drama not a family dinner so listen out to what both people say but don't act on it at least not in that location. I know it might be hard sometimes especially cause I've heard some terrible things about me our family dinner but it's best not to explode right then and there.


It's okay not to go


At the end of the day, it's okay not to go to a family gathering. It is 100% of your choice and how you feel. There are some days where I don't want to see some of my family so I choose not to go and it doesn't make me a terrible person sometimes you have to put your feelings in your mental health first and if you don't feel like going then don't go. Even if they make you feel like shit for your choice just know I believe you and I respect your choices no matter what they are if you put your mental health first in your feelings first

 

I hope you guys enjoyed this misguided let me know in the comments down below if you want another one and if so about what and as always liked I said family dinner is just a weird thing, in general, don't go if you don't want to go if you want to just be yourself and have fun and I'll see you guys in the next post
