Why do I care so much my parents view me as financially successful? And how can I sto

Stop *?

- basically tittle
- 27 years old . Parents in their 60s . Its almost like a bit of an ocd ...that i don't want to tell them what I got because I'm afraid it will seem small etc

- im afraid I won't get taken seriously or will be looked down upon if im not doing well

- not going to get into a bunch of e stats but yes they are quite successful themselves .

- its like I want to flex to my parents I've made it more than say a girl etc

HOW can I stop worrying about this ? And its not like their expectations are super high its something I bring upon myself

And yes I dont receive anything from them never have except help with tuition ....cars rent etc ive always paid myself .

Need to learn to stop caring so much ...and this forces me into working super hard

Do your parents own a 7-Eleven and you finally made manager at a franchise store making almost 34k a year?
