What do I do?

My parents divorced 10 years ago due to my mothers affair. A couple years later she had 2 children. She would occasionally visit us on weekends. But over time it became seeing my mother twice a month even though she only lives 15 minutes away. This year she decided to move back to mexico and take her new family with her. She is leaving tomorrow but she barely told me this morning. I dont know what to reply or feel. I wanna cry but im in class.
Do whatever you genuinely feel in your heart...not what anyone expects of you. I'm so sorry for your pain. You know, just because she holds the title "mother", doesn't mean she is one. It takes a whole lot more to be a real mother, and this one doesn't deserve that title. Don't feel obliged nor obligated to reply. I sure wouldn't. Unless you'd like to tell her how you feel, but then she wouldn't be leaving if she cared about that. I hope your father finds a loving mate who will give you the love you so desperately deserve.

I am so sad to read your post. I am sorry your mother has decided to move on and go to Mexico. I think you are a strong person because, if it were me, I'd be crying in class!

You can't do anything about this. If it were me, I would tell my mother how I felt about it. She may not be aware of how much she is wounding you.

I wish I could be there to give you a hug...and I'm not usually a hugging kind of person.

My own mother was an abusive, angry witch to me when I was growing up; she abandonned me emotionally because I was not chosen for membership in her elite group (insiders in the Communist Party). So I do understand the pain of having a mother behave unlovingly toward you. It's like having a hole drilled in your heart.

I hope your dad is at least aware of what's going on, and I hope he can give you the loving support you need during this difficult time.

What a shitty way for any parent to behave !
I think you've every right to feel angry about it !

Think I'd be inclined to write her a letter outlining exactly how you feel.
No reason why she shouldn't be made aware as to how you feel.

that's a hard question to answer because we do not know the nature of your relatnsp or what you or she are like and what fuels your/her life decisions....this must be very hard.
What kind of mother is that ?

You can divorce a partner but you never divorce your children.

Very sad. I am sorry it is happening to you.

You want her to stay more? Why not calling her in your break time?

I'm sorry. I hope at some time you can have a relationship with her
