Since I've worked I am helping my family financially. It is okay to me as long as I have enough money to give them and no pressure.
Parents should look for their children and not other way around, besides they are still young at 50. I hate it when they are like irresponsible and putting almost all the loads on my shoulder. I am now married and we are also facing our own financial crisis. Supposed they plan their life ahead and think of the future that money doesn't come easy and it's not good to asked from your children or relatives, they are irritating and I am ashamed of them.
I am paying for their health insurance and also sending my brother to college. Last year my father was hospitalized because of stroke. A very unexpected expenses and they expect me to shoulder it. My father is alcoholic and I hate it, we don't have money and he is so irresponsible of doing it. I borrowed our saving to sent to them so they will have capital for their store but I didn't know what happen less than a year later it was already gone. I have warned them to make profit of it because I can't sent them that much again. Now they are asking money again.
For God sake I am not rich here, and we have so many debts to pay here. I don't know I am tired of them, very tired of them.
I wish they are not my parents, I wish I have a responsible rich educated parents. I am really tired of them, I wish it will end soon, I'm giving up...They are not my responsibility. I hate my parents, I hate them now.

I add another college classmate of mine on fs, after 48 years she finally responded and guess what is her first message on my FS! She is asking me to give her friend an American chat mate! what the heck, she thinks I am a match maker or worse a PIMP?!
I hate it so much when they ask me that kind favors because they just think its that easy to tell people here if they want somebody from the Philippines and they never know that Modern Filipina has already a bad impression here in the US. They think that Filipina are hooker and marrying old man with only one purpose, to come to US, marrying American not for love but to have them as passport to US.
This is a stereotype accusation because not all Filipinas are marrying foreigners just to come here in the US. I bet there's still a big percentage who are marrying for love but it most cases it is obvious that they are marrying for stupid reason, which is so shameful to the Filipinos in general.

Our family relationship is one in millions "troubled siblings." I found it funny that even you are blood related but you have the bigger chances in having conflict with your family members. I know and see that there are mother and daughter issues, father and son and of course sibling rivalry or conflicts. Although we are blood related but we have different personalities, life principles and our own way of thinking and we are making our own life.
My brother and I literally have many things in common especially in our way of thinking. But my sister has her own world and her own thinking that sometimes it made me wondering with question "is she really my sister?"
What ever decisions she made in her life and the path she choose to follow, all I am hoping that she will be happy, successful, and will be contented on it. As I always remind her, it’s her life and it’s her choice. Whatever she chooses, she had to deal with it and never blame anyone else because that's her choice and she is the one making her future.
I admit I am not in good terms with her though I still feel for her but I believe that I have to let her go as a person so she can learn from her mistakes and realized that it's her journey, not mine. She had to face it by herself and stomach whatever its outcome. God Bless her.

You have an overwhelming feeling when you connect back to your long lost friends, schoolmates and classmates, former neighbors, in short "your past acquaintance."
In most cases they would not recognized you at first after more than 10 years of lost communication. Some can be your true good friend and some remain to be just "acquaintance." And the part that I hate most is when they turn to be your "friend with benefit". Like they are exerting effort to be so close to you and be your nice friend but wait a couple months and you will see that they are just after of something.
For instance, this person happened to be one of my school batch mates and I just reconnect with him online after 14 long empty years. Of course I trust him 50%, though I never thought he will turn like that, but right after couple of months he strain the communication by asking money from me which really turned me off. He now belongs on my long list of "friends with benefit or opportunistic".
My point is, money can "strain" any good relationship or friendship, IF, you know he's not in need and its plainly opportunistic move. It's okay when he badly needs it, but they are a little well off with secured jobs. Another reason is we are not related and I just know him because he happened to be my batch mate long long time ago and we're not even close those days. Then he have the nerve to ask money from me? lets say it's a joke (I'll take it) but hello, boy oh boy, it's a turn off move, a very very BAD move. I am willing to spare CASH "IF" the person badly needs it not just taking opportunity.
