I dont talk to my parents much, i dont acknowledge anything they say, as far as im concerned theyre about as dead as they can be outside of being still alive. my gf on the other hand has a very loving and supportive family, who can sometime be too critical. however, over time, she has become annoyed and concerned over some of my fleas from the carnage of my household. none of them are that bad, think very corny dad jokes, and sometimes they get a little too cringy. the fleas arent even that bad, think anxiety laughing, corny jokes, etc, stuff you would find in people trying to cope or overcome severe childhood abuse. the thing is she's started to feel sad over this, and now because she feels sad, she's sad on my behalf, or something to that affect, which i guess is some kind of virtue signalling over something that doesn't affect her? no idea, but its not the first time it was brought up, i just think that non broken families will never understand to a full extent the depravity and issues of broken homes
