Mom obsessed with photos
So I’m currently in exam season at university (Computer Science), and something happened this Thursday that honestly frustrated me a lot.
I had a very important exam at 12 PM. Usually, when I go to university, I leave around one hour earlier because buses in my city are unpredictable and crowded, and I really don’t want to risk being late.
But my mom has this obsession with taking photos every single time I leave somewhere important. That day, while I was literally trying to get dressed and leave for my exam, she kept insisting on taking pictures of me.
I clearly told her multiple times that I was running late and that the exam was important. I even tried to quietly get ready without arguing, but she got upset because I didn’t stop for photos.
The thing is… I was genuinely close to risking a failed exam / retake because of the delay. And honestly, I don’t understand how someone can get upset over photos when the situation is that serious.
Am I overreacting here?
