Why do my friends and family walk away from me whenever I walk about my absent mother? It’s rude
I know I keep talking about it but I miss her. Whenever I speak about my late mom that abandoned us, I either get cut off or people ignore me and walk away. My dad has scold me off for bringing up the past. He is tough as nails and he refuses to let me sulk in pity or depression. He would me like, “Stop dwelling on the past and I’m not going to let you. Not on my watch. If you keep bringing it up, I’m going to be hard on you. Your mom doesn’t want you. Let her go already!!! You don’t need her.”
I feel like he’s too mean or too tough. I talk to someone else for sympathy because it’s hard to talk to my dad about my absent mom. My older half siblings flat out told me I need to stop bringing it up and they’re tired of it and Dad HASto be tough on me because I have been upset enough and sometimes it’s the only way to get me to listen and snap into reality.
I don’t always dwell on the past but my sad knows that I did. How does he know?
He doesn’t have to be so hard on me.
Even my best friends are hard on me. My female best friend said one time, “Look this is a party and we’re all trying to have a great time. I think if you’re going to keep talking about your mom, I think you should just leave.” I was shocked I can’t believe my own best friend was say that to me.
