My mother didn't bother to send me the letter until Saturday - and then she sent it regular mail. How nice. So I'll just continue waiting....Isn't it nice when people in your life remind you that what matters to you doesn't make much difference to them? /sarcasm
(I'm not as bitter as this reads, I've known for years how I am not a high priority for her... she is, then her boyfriend, then me. At least I'm in the top 3 right? This does play into why I'm not super interested in having my own children though - if I ever do even adopt or foster I want to be sure I can give them as much of myself as they deserve. I mean, I matter to her... but it's in a distant way. She takes care of me some monetarily - now anyway - and does what she thinks she should - but all I really ever wanted was love, consideration, and emotional support. Those are the hardest things for me to get, and always have been.)
This is a sad tale. One thing that should never be compromised is love and support for your children, even adult children. It's not your fault you were born to a man your mother had a falling out with. It's just wrong to me for her not to be more supportive.
ReplyDeleteBut I guess you're used to that.
