I Don't Get Along With My Mom

We are two completely different people. Growing up she never acted like a mom, she would rather be my friend. I wasn't a horrible kid just too smart and mouthy for everyone's good. She has a habit of choosing her men over her children and right now since all of us are well over the age of eighteen with children of our own it doesn't bother me. It did when we were growing up because she made me handle the things she let fall into the cracks. I did some illegal things to help carry the house and she knew about all of it.

As of right now I have officially cut her off six months ago. She doesn't have my number and is blocked from everything. My mother plays victim a lot and has been lying to her boyfriend (who hates me and the feelings are mutual) for over five years. She spun this huge tale of how me and my brothers want him dead and we can't bare to see her happy. When in reality that is completely far from the case. I spoke to the whole family and let them know that my peace was more important than her chaos and I cut her off. Everyone understands except her. She feels she didn't do anything wrong so she is crying to anyone that will listen. Honestly I don't even care. I'm just tired of the lies and drama she starts. It sucks because my son and soon to be daughter barely know her to begin with. She only came around for money and if my son was home she would see him for a few and then leave.

I wish things were different but it isn't. So I'm going day by day and maybe one day we can actually talk but with the way she is set up I doubt it. I know I only have one mother, but she also only has one daughter and I can't keep giving when I get nothing but lies in return.

**Sorry this is long. I really just wanted to get some of this out**
