Wow. This was the first topic title I ever read that made my stomach drop. And almost brought tears. Didn't want to read it, but knew I had to as I searched for answers. Don't think I found any, but I see I am not the only one. Me and mom are getting worse daily. Some wiser and kinder people than me keep telling me to "fix it". That no matter how bad she makes me feel, she is my mY mother. But I don't know how to be that person. Part of me wants to walk away, but part feels that would be so wrong. And when I read people here say they haven't spoken to theirs in years, I'm like "wow". I hope it doesn't come to that. But it is time to move further away from her. I decided on DC. TBoogy
I guess my relationship with my mom can be compared to yours. It's everyday the things we say to each other gets worse. Today she went to the hospital for a really bad back pain she has and I told her "This is an act of God, you deserve this because the way you treat me isn't right. And God has now realized this". Of course right now I don't feel bad that I said that but sometime down the road I probably will. Just like you, one day I just want to walk away from her and the problems she gives me but it's like you said she's my mother. I also find it hard to believe people just stop interacting with their parents, it's hard to imagine me not seeing them again.
Mine is horrible! Not a single day goes by that we don't argue. I refuse to let her have the last say cause quiet frankly when we argue, all she throws is ingorant non-sense into the argument. I mean what can I say I want it to get along with her but when she's to hard-headed to understand even the simplest of things it's practically impossible,
