Bikini pics are normal down here in Oz.
I don’t understand how being 15 in a bikini is inappropriate to show your husband. It’s you, not someone else.
Your mom doesn’t understand why you’re self conscious, because she’s older and prob would kill to be younger again, like you.
At least your mom isn’t Mary Shieler. That’s a mom you shouldn’t talk to.

that you think it’s inappropriate makes you sound like the one with a problem tbh. how is your husband gonna look at ur kids?

My mom is a narcissist. she invited me and my husband for dinner today. She said she found old photos of me when I was maybe 15 on vacation in a bikini. She told me how pretty it was and pointed out details like what color the bikini was so that I would remember. She said she wanted to show my husband.
Your mom is not a narcissist. My mom is/was. She destroyed. You speak of your mom's past insecurities, issues with self-image. Narcissists think they are god.
I immediately gave her a disapproving look, and said “no, you don’t need to show him.” She insisted that it was pretty, then I said it’s inappropriate because I was underage then.
So with that information, was I overreacting? Please take note of your initial reaction to this, then read on.
This is like the baby, infant, picture of my with my legs spread before a diaper was put on. I destroyed it but, it was not inappropriate and I owned my own warped embarrassment. Think about art, paintings, sculptures, photos. No, you in a bikini as a girl is not inappropriate. Just like my infant picture, or a picture of my husband as a country boy swimming at the lake at his family farm, in his jockies. Perverts think inappropriate things at such pictures.
Now, I’ll give more details. The year those photos were taken, my mom had my dad put them up on the karaoke monitor for their family dinner party. I told her to take it down before people showed up, but people were already coming in and she didn’t care. My dad is just oblivious or thinks nothing of my feelings either, so he didn’t do anything. I didn’t know how to work the monitor because my dad had set it up.
Family pictures are often embarrassing.
Aside from that, my mother has always embarrassed me, and whether it’s on purpose or just in her blood, I don’t know. It might be cultural.
Family are prone to embarrass us. My mother does the same, so do my uncles. You gotta own your feelings.
But I do know that she was extremely self conscious of her body as a young woman because I saw photos of her from before she had me, in her bikini, and she looked really bashful, covering up her stomach. She also told me she was bulemic, said it in a way that it’s obvious she has a rudimentary understanding of what bulemia is. She would say she made herself throw up, but never mentioned bulemia. I guess where she’s from(not the USA), it’s not discussed as an eating disorder.
You are not describing a narcissist.
But I can only imagine she knows what it’s like to be self conscious and she should be able to translate those feelings into some understanding of why I wouldn’t want her to show my photos to all her friends who were obviously much older than me. My worst assumption is that she is so effed up in the head that she only knows how to deal with her own feelings by making me feel as small as her.
She is living through you. You were not as self-conscious as she was... to the point of bulimia. She is proud of you as she wishe she could be of herself. Seeing you unabashed in your bikini might be healing to her. You are not receiving her feelings. You seem to lack empathy for your mother as an individual. When we become adults, we must begin to see our parents as people. Shed that one-way child view of them as just parents.
I was initially the one who wanted to wear the bikini and it was sort of like an important step in becoming comfortable with my body, because for a long time she would pick out what I was supposed to wear and control me in such ways.
I detached myself from her a decade ago and I have no issues with self image, but it’s irritating that she’s still the same old idiot.
She rejoices in your "important step in becoming comfortable with my body." She missed that step. She didn't make it through like you. She living vicariously through you in that moment and it's healing. Alot of women have this issue. Your mothee joins millions of "idiots."
She will probably text my husband the photos at some point, but I don’t care. If she does at least I will know she’s a piece of shit. I just can’t help wondering if I’m gona turn out to be as retarded as her, embarrassing my kid without any awareness or control over it. It’s also giving me a new perspective on how/why everyone does that to other people and I’m disgusted by how I have done things like that to my own friends, even if it seemed inconsequential to me. Ughhh too much truth for dxp?
Oh yeah, and since this is the astrology and relationships forum, I’ll add that I have Chiron conjunct the ascendant. So it makes sense.
Absolutely correct! Chiron conjunct the ascendant. Do mom's chart too. It will help you see her as an individual. Maybe garner some empathy.click to expand

In all seriousness, Ive looked into my patients natal chart and concluded that mothers of Gemini Moon people usually are very emotionally distant due to the moon/moms mental space or overall personality. There is no heavy familial signatures that are extreme. Moms were typically more immature or lack nurturing qualities

I feel for you, and I doubt it. I don't believe we are doomed to become our parents. Your mom sounds aggressive and either indifferent to or purposefully stomping on your boundaries, which I relate to but I don't give my mom a reaction now and just avoid/ignore her. Consider your mom might have awareness/control over her actions. I used to give my mom the benefit of the doubt until I realized her lapse of being considerate only extends to few, and people she respects receive more careful treatment.click to expand

I don’t know what your relationship with your mom is exactly like since I haven’t experienced it obviously, but growing up my mom was controlling so I can see how this would be annoying if it’s part of a pattern of her not respecting what you want. And if you asked her not to show him the pic she probably should respect that I guess...it just doesn’t seem like a big deal from my perspective because it’s your husband. At least your mom isn’t showing pictures of you as a kid to a girl you just barely started seeing like my mom did once 🙈😬😬😬😬😬
So yeah I get how it can be annoying. Like people here are acting like you’re making too big a deal out of it which maybe you are a little bit, but on the other hand if you’re mom is so insistent on showing him a pic you asked her not to she’s kind of making things too big a deal too

Your mum does not sound like a narcissist. If she was, it would not be your photo she would be showing around, but her own.
Narcissists evolve everything around themselves and they do put down others, but not in the ways you described. Narcissistic abuse is actually a real thing and what you’ve written sounds more like a mother who loves her child, but might not be the best at expressing it.
Parents and family members have been known for being embarrassing when it comes to baby photos and I know it’s really annoying, but it’s normal. If you don’t like it, then you’re doing the right thing by expressing your concern.

I immediately gave her a disapproving look, and said “no, you don’t need to show him.” She insisted that it was pretty, then I said it’s inappropriate because I was underage then.
So with that information, was I overreacting? Please take note of your initial reaction to this, then read on.
Now, I’ll give more details. The year those photos were taken, my mom had my dad put them up on the karaoke monitor for their family dinner party. I told her to take it down before people showed up, but people were already coming in and she didn’t care. My dad is just oblivious or thinks nothing of my feelings either, so he didn’t do anything. I didn’t know how to work the monitor because my dad had set it up.
Aside from that, my mother has always embarrassed me, and whether it’s on purpose or just in her blood, I don’t know. It might be cultural. But I do know that she was extremely self conscious of her body as a young woman because I saw photos of her from before she had me, in her bikini, and she looked really bashful, covering up her stomach. She also told me she was bulemic, said it in a way that it’s obvious she has a rudimentary understanding of what bulemia is. She would say she made herself throw up, but never mentioned bulemia. I guess where she’s from(not the USA), it’s not discussed as an eating disorder. But I can only imagine she knows what it’s like to be self conscious and she should be able to translate those feelings into some understanding of why I wouldn’t want her to show my photos to all her friends who were obviously much older than me. My worst assumption is that she is so effed up in the head that she only knows how to deal with her own feelings by making me feel as small as her. I was initially the one who wanted to wear the bikini and it was sort of like an important step in becoming comfortable with my body, because for a long time she would pick out what I was supposed to wear and control me in such ways.
I detached myself from her a decade ago and I have no issues with self image, but it’s irritating that she’s still the same old idiot. She will probably text my husband the photos at some point, but I don’t care. If she does at least I will know she’s a piece of shit. I just can’t help wondering if I’m gona turn out to be as retarded as her, embarrassing my kid without any awareness or control over it. It’s also giving me a new perspective on how/why everyone does that to other people and I’m disgusted by how I have done things like that to my own friends, even if it seemed inconsequential to me. Ughhh too much truth for dxp?
Oh yeah, and since this is the astrology and relationships forum, I’ll add that I have Chiron conjunct the ascendant. So it makes sense.
