so I am pretty much stuck living with her for now. My fault partially, since I screwed up with my thesis in master's program and now need to rework it.
We own together a house, which we decided to sell. She wanted to move to place where her parents used to live. Started reconstructing. Bough solar panel, started painting the walls (yeah, I was doing it along all the time). Started to moving out crap out of our old house. Accompanied by arguments about how wasteful I am for wanting to throw out audio and VHS tapes and such. And then she decides in the middle of move that she wants to keep the house we've been moving out of. Add to it that she won't accept that I am into women, don't want to be a teacher as my life goal... I am not sure if i can survive in sanity until I graduate.

Im sorry Venus, wish your mother didnt give you such a hard time all the time. What changed her mind about the move? How long has your mother known that you are into women? It may just take a little time, she may just be in shock and need time. You love who you love and your mother will have to accept that, just as she will have to accept whatever your career choice may be.
Have you tried discussing these things with your mother? Have you told her it bothers you that she seems to be so unaccepting of your life and your choices? Maybe she just needs to be told you need her support.

I am glad I'm not the only dealing with an unaccepting mother. Only my problem was with my gf's mother and not mine. Depending on how long she's known, it may just take time. It was a couple years until my gf's mom accepted me as part of her daughter's life. I would say just give it time, things will get better.

Oh I hate feeling stuck.
 Your mom sounds fun and interesting, but also sensory overload and tiring for you! Ideally you would get your own place somewhere, right? Same town, different town? I really hope your mom will come around with accepting who you are, the whole Venus. It's nice to be able to talk to our moms about dating and relationships stuff.
