my dad comes to mind, he’s always trying to get me to do things around the house, or elsewhere im not capable of performing. he believes in me, but i honestly don’t have the ability so try and try and fail endlessly.
another time at work, they tried to get me to park a semi trailer in a warehouse dock and i sat out there and tried to park that thing for 2 hours and couldn’t get the job done, yet my boss just said you need more practice.
i guess im good at some things, which makes people think i can do more than i can. personally i know my limitations and try to master my strengths.
Yeah. I can think of one moment from a long time ago. A long time ago. Me and my sisters went up to visit my mom and my step-dad about 6 years ago. Before they moved away I was over my moms house once a week or every other week.
We would talk and sometimes go out to eat. It took a lot out of me so my mom would always see how tired I get after an hour or two of talking and she would suggest I take a nap in the den.
Then my mom and step-dad moved about an hour and a half drive away. Me and my sisters would visit them and once we were there and we all talked for about an hour and a half straight. It drained me mentally so I asked my mom if I could take a nap like I used to. Both my sisters got aggravated. They said, “No way” you’ve got to stay out here. I told them I couldn’t but they were adamant and so I had to go back in the living room for another hour of socializing. I don’t know how I did it but it was a huge strain and made me angry at my sisters but i could see their point. I had kind of put myself in the position of being included with the family and part of that was socializing when I didn’t feel like it. This incident sticks out in my mind but there are others.
