Why is she so sensitive?

My question is regarding my Sag stepmom. She's 60 but overreacts very childishly. She deleted me from Facebook because she thought something I posted was "mean." It was my opinion and valid, yet she blew up the status and went off. I calmly asked her not to do that and she deleted me.

She did it twice in 2013 and threw a tantrum and said, "You'll never hear from me again!" And hardcore freaked out. Over a Facebook post...to a family member you love dearly. Nobody else found these things remotely offensive either.

She would just micromanage my Facebook and ask things like "why does it say you're online, shouldn't you be working?" Etc etc. I love her and she's a very giving woman and has done a lot for me, I just do not understand this behavior pattern of a growl adult. Can anyone make sense of it or give me advice on how to soothe her? She gets really offended anytime I try.

*grown adult

I think you should learn the these mishaps versus get angry at her for them. If something bothers her, just keep a mental note of it and try to move forward keeping those things in mind.


As far as social media goes, i had my mother go batshit on me on Christmas eve because she decided she wanted to interpret one of my facebook post. The only problem with that scenario is that she MISINTERPRETED it and went off on me on some dumb shit. My advice to you would be to not befriend her on social media. Especially considering that this is the 3rd time (amirite?) she's gotten piss pants mad at you over something YOU posted on YOUR facebook page.

Yeah it's more than that too.

It was absolutely redic.

It was a picture of someone parking in between a handicapped and normal spot and me not being able to get in and venting that he was an asshole because parking was already bad. She said I didn't know his story and he could be hurt and a war veteran. For one I know the car and the dude is young and a thug. He has no handicapped anything on his car and he is taking the spot from those that need it. They brag about it and he's harassed me and other women for numbers and is up to know good. I know he's not a good person. And even after I said that she continues to argue with me and say I don't know his story...

She said how dare I call someone "an ass hole" and I'm better than that. She says she deleted me because she doesn't want to see me "be mean to people" and that what she doesn't know can't hurt her.

She kept saying be thankful I'm in good health and not handicapped and maybe he needed help. She didnt get that I told her 3x he was NOT handicapped, just parking there. I try to be nice and not judge, but I'm also a criminal justice major and I'm not a fool or naive. Having actually seen the person multiple times, this was my justification in the post and it was a vent. I hardly even do those on MY Facebook.

I don't know her details of her chart, I'll wait until she cools off to ask.

Hmm it does sound like righteous now that you mention it. It's like she had to get on her soap box! But why:/.

Your Moon square Saturn shows it what your mom considered 'mean'.

Is she lonely? Are you the only child?

This is my stepmom. I am the only child on my dads side and she doesn't have any children of her own. I know she is unhappy and she tells me constantly, I'm not sure why she stays with my workaholic drink too much also Sag dad. She says she hasn't touched him in 8 years and isn't in love with him, they're just roommates yet they stay? She threatens constantly to kick him out of her place but it never happens.

My biological mom would never act like that. Luckily I grew up being raised by my brothers dad for almost 18 years. They divorced when I was 18 but he's still in my life (also a Sag) more so than my biological dad is and he gives me the love I've needed. He's very patient and a good soul, like my mom (Cancer) but my dad is just...he doesn't know how to show love. My stepmom is a very giving person and cares but she can just get so butt hurt and resort to tactics of being a child and freaking out over nothing. I told my stepdad (I still call him that even though they are divorced, he's my brothers dad) says that she will be back and add me again because that's her pattern. He advised me NOT to add her again.

I'm hardly close with my biological dad because he doesn't know how to show love or allow people close. Saw him first time in 5 years in August. But I'm very close to my stepmom despite her childish antics, she gets carried away and goes online shopping and sends package after package of clothes and shoes etc and spoiled me when I came to visit. I told her she didnt have to do that but she insisted, if I told her no she would have cried.

I'm very close with my cancer mom and cancer grandpa. And my Virgo brother and his Sag dad.

I just don't understand why she gets like that. The rest of my family and friends see the things that set her off and they think it's absolutely crazy.

My best friends are a cancer(Aries rising and aqua moon) Leo(Gemini rising and Taurus moon) Taurus (Gemini rising aqua moon) Taurus(Pisces moon) Libra, Aquarius, Sag, and sag. A few I accumulated over the past 4 years, but a majority of them I've had 9-14 years. The all find it absolutely redic and don't see anything mean about what sat her off.

At age 60...& deleting people from Facebook?

It appears as if your stepmom can use more company.

How often do you visit her?

im a Sag with virgo moon. Im not easily offended or hurt,except for when people i care for do inconsiderate things that directly affects me. I dont know if the status you wrote had anything to do with her, but if someone wrote a negative status and I knew for a fact that they were refering to me, i'd delete them. but i would not add them back to my page ever.

1. Sag and Gem are opposition. conflict is programmed.

2. better you give her (& your) birth date (and time if you have) and we check Uranus or Saturn aspects. Or Mars-Moon-squares.

3. the following is not nice (in my eyes):
"this behavior pattern of a grown adult",
"they think it's absolutely crazy.",
"The all find it absolutely redic",
"It was absolutely redic",
"her childish antics",
"she had to get on her soap box".

I know plenty of people like that and the only thing they share in common is the lack of dick in their life...not zodiac signs.

On another note, I think what you're describing is a very reactive person...not a sensitive person. Annoying as fuck, but I'd be lying if I said, as a Sagi, I've never been told I'm too reactive.

Oh and she needs a hobby...maybe suggest scrap booking? Or googling?

Sag women are known for hardcore freakshowmanship.

I still need to find her details, she is talking to me a little more.

I never posted a status that had anything to do with her, she just reacts to anything she thinks is mean...micromanages my Facebook, likes to buy me nice colorful things but gets annoyed when I hang out with my "weird friends" and wants "to burn my corsets" and if she sees a certain dress one more time she will scream etc. she's a baptist from Kentucky so she's not very open and gets frustrated by my non close minded way of thinking.

There was a guy she didnt like and when I would post a status with him, she would put "😢" in the comments then would get upset at ME for deleting her comment and politely texting her not to do that.

She hasn't had any kind of physical/sexual affection in maybe 9 years, perhaps that could be a cause?

She's very much caught up on her work, but I think I would be too if I was selling million dollar homes on the regular and getting a huge profit from it...
