Save me from the clutches of my mother: a secret

And you know what I've noticed? It's when other people are around or they're talking to other people, they are so good to me. But when they're not, I'm in hell.

Treat this as something you've read and just let it by and you're doing me a favor of them (yep my sister too) not hitting on me. Th ey'll just hit me after you've talked to them.
