Hi, I'm 20f and I'm a first year medical student. I have a students portal and obviously it comes with login details like my student number and password. My mother literally knows everything that happens in my life despite the fact that I'm schooling in a totally different country. If I'm on a call with her and another call comes in she'll always want me to tell her the person that called and what we talked about. She calls me every single day and she wants to hear every single thing I did that day. She literally has the phone number of everyone i know. If i accidentally mention someone new shell make me send the number. At first I didn't mind but now I feel like I'm monitored. So the new semester started this week and as usual she asked for all my timetables and class schedules, I reluctantly gave it her but when she asked for my school portal login details I immediately caller her and told her that I didn't want to give it to her. She was furious and demanded for my details. She said 'I'm investing in you so I have every right to know what's happening in your life'. I asked her why she badly wanted my it and she said that she wants to be checking my portal when ever she feels like, for example she wants to be checking my results (which I always send to her once it's out) and so on. I told her that although I'm not hiding anything from her I would like some privacy, if she ever wants anything relating to my portal I'll screenshot it and send to her. She started crying and saying stuff like I'm hiding something and I want to deceive her like my older brother ( he dropped out of college for years and never told anyone for a long time). Then she cut the call. This incident happened this morning and it's been bothering me. I feel really bad for what I did and I'm contemplating sending it to her but for once I wanted a little privacy in my life. So am I the asshole?
