Last night at around 7:00 pm, i (13m) was having dinner, as i had just gotten back from boxing and was kinda hungry. My grandma (75f) had already eaten at around 5:30-6:00 (i’m assuming).
My grandma is in no way a frail old lady, she does most of the cleaning, cooking, etc. around the house, and she says she has no problem with it, she says it “gives her something to do during the day”.
My grandma sat besides me for a bit at the table, making conversation until she began to tell me everything i had to do or was doing wrong, “you have to do laundry”, “you have to change your pillowcases”, “stop taking such big bites”, “take a shower before you go to bed”, “pack your bag so you can go to your moms house tomorrow”, “get your elbows off the table”, etc.
At some point i began to get agitated, as i usually do when she does this (it wasn’t the first time she’s done this, but the first time i’ve responded in this way). Mind you, i have a short temper and i’m very aware of that, so i typically try to avoid these situations.
As i had said before, i got agitated, and i said something along the lines of, “Okay, i get it, i have to do all this stuff soon and i’m going to, so can you please stop talking for like 10 minutes?” and i’d said it at a pretty fast speed, so it might have sounded a bit aggressive.
She reacted with standing up from the table, saying “i’m sorry for bothering,” and a few other things i can’t remember off the top of my head.
I raised my voice, saying “dude” and slamming my hands down on the table, and she shouted something at me aswell, though it was incoherent. I stood up aswell and put my food into tupperware, as she stormed off into her room upstairs.
So, AITA?
