My mom's friend and ehr daughter come over every now and then. The mother is extremely annoying, and I am the only person in my family who sees it! The daughter is pretty hot, and has a thing for me for some time now, but I still find myself staying away from them both. I can't stand to be around them. When they are around, I isolate my self in my room and shut and lock the door to avoid the both of them and any conversations with them what-so-ever. Is it wrong and what can I do not to feel so harshly about them?

yo buddy, I support the way of isolating yourself in the room. It is the so called splendid isolation. Don't force yourself to interact them. I usually do the same when there is someone annoying visiting my home. I feel angry when they discuss something about me, which I think it is not worthy to discuss (for example, do you like people to discuss your body shape or salaries in front of you in public?). So I shut the door, turn on the speaker and listen to music in order to calm myself down. It is a good way to deal with someone annoying. Cheers

Personally I think feelings like this are only natural. Not everyone will always like all the people their family does, and sometimes their is nothing you can do but to just hide out away from them. Have you tried expressing your feelings and let your family know? There could be a reason there your feelings are well spend and maybe in time others will know.

Maybe you should avoid going out with the girl even if she is hot.Their is an old saying to look at a girls mother as she will turn into her eventually or at best just have an annoying mother in law.Though i don't know what she looks like and she may hot enough for it to be worth it but only you can decide that.

I don't see nothing wrong with that when people come over that I find irritating or that I just don't want to be around them I also isolate myself in my room till they go away. We all have our ways of dealing with situation such as this one. So yeah you have to do what you have to do it is your decision after all. If one day you actually do want to be around the daughter who knows you know you two might end up dating or something like that.

it's okay that you isolate yourself in your room. That way, they could be avoided.
However, when it is inevitable that you meet them, just be cordial with them. That way, they cannot say that you are rude to them.

I see no reason for you to force yourself to stay around someone who annoys you. However, I do think you should be polite and civil to your Mom's friends and as far as I can tell you are doing that.
You could try to get to know the people a little better..for your Mom's sake, and maybe you will learn to like them? If not, at least you tried. Best wishes and good luck

I don't think it is necessarily wrong to isolate yourself from them, so long as you give a polite excuse (you are tired, have work to do, that sort of thing). Nothing says you have to make friends with everyone, but for your mom's sake you should be polite. I'd avoid them too. Obviously your mom's friend just isn't your type of person.

Oh? that's a good idea to isolate yourself when they are around or better yet, leave the house when they are around. That's your time to go away and enjoy yourself. This would be a sign to let them know that they should behave when they visit another people's house. hahaha...

You can try to keep just a cordial relationship with them. If the mom is so annoy as you say I don't think is wrong to try to maintain your distance. That way you avoid problems. But you know, not been rude or nothing. Just be friendly but keep your distance.

I have had the same problem with annoying people coming to my house. My sister's friends are a group of really loud and obnoxious people. Usually I close my door and turn on some music to block out their laughing or screaming. I usually tell myself to tell them to quiet down but it just never works. After maybe a year or so, I learned to accept them. They aren't as bad as they seem without getting to know them, but yet still annoying, but manageable. I think that you should give them a chance to know them more and if you still don't like them, then just continue what you are doing and ignore them. Mylot always welcomes you here =)
