Please lay it on me and don't mince words, pure amnesty from me. Would you describe my descriptions of my relationship

with my mom as "hatred" from my end? For those who have seen my posts....

Nope, you've never sounded like you hate her, you come across as though you are constantly disappointed by how toxic she is, as though you think one day she might suddenly change but she never does.

@AntisocialTroll thank you my love, hit the nail on the head
Hurt, frustrated, angry. All those are valid emotions. I don’t see hatred. I think you sincerely want more from that relationship but don’t know how you can get there because of her thoughts and actions. I think even a little sad, if im being honest. Which probably makes you even more angry cause sad is really hard to process from there.
@foldedunfolding I truly think if you can fully accept the sadness (anger is always a secondary emotion,) you will be able to grieve… not your Mum so much as the relationship you wish you could have if she was different. After the stages of grief, you’ll come to acceptance where you can let go of the hurt and see her as someone that is very sad herself and doesn’t know how to deal and move past all of it. Love you.

@JustGoneNow honestly i feel i have done all that, and have come to the conclusion that i would not like a relationship with her..my counselor cant accept that. i am only going to counseling bc my siblings are using my beloved nieces and nephews as pawns....but yeah..it is rough as hell. love you too, girly..tysm
@foldedunfolding 🖤🖤🖤🤗🤗🤗

I would call it more of abject disappointment. Like Moms are the one thing we hold sacred and pure, not the ones who will be a source of pain, rather than a source of comfort.

@bellybuttonfan17 exactly..but now that im in it..i will be further the bad guy if i "quit"
bellybuttonfan17 · 36-40, M
@foldedunfolding calling for objective fairness is hardly quitting. By their definition then the solution is the complete and abject surrender of you to their point of view. Why even mediate in such a scenario then ?
foldedunfolding · 41-45, F
@bellybuttonfan17 exactly..which is why this entire thing is against my will, with my full knowledge that it wont work, and onlyyy so i can show my nieces and nephews i would go to the ends of the earth for them

No not at all.

Hurt angry resentful betrayed but you've never talked about her hatefully.
foldedunfolding · 41-45, F
@CountScrofula ok thank you..my counselor repeatedly called me an "angry woman" and said i had "hatred and unforgiveness" for my mom. i confronted her about that.

@foldedunfolding Sounds like you should consider a new therapist.
Yes. I would say you have a right to be angry but you dont hate her.
foldedunfolding · 41-45, F
@Sojournersoul ok thank you for your feedback ♡
@foldedunfolding You are welcome. 🤗
No…more like disappointment, resentment and disgust.
@foldedunfolding Then falsify a resolve for the sake of your nieces and nephews and move on from this counseling chapter so you can establish a new one with a new therapist for yourself

@Haniazed yeah that was my plan i guess..they just wont let up until i actually hang around my abusive mother..i am so not doing well :(
@foldedunfolding you’re gonna be alright, I promise.
deadgerbil · 26-30, M
Nah more like you're just tired of her bs and how the rest of your family makes excuses for her and tries to force communication
foldedunfolding · 41-45, F
@deadgerbil thank you for your feedback, and for paying attention..im really sad my coubselor used that term to describe me today. she even said "mean" at one point.
More contempt than hate.
foldedunfolding · 41-45, F
@Sojournersoul what is the difference btwn those two terms, for you
@foldedunfolding She is unworthy of your respect.
foldedunfolding · 41-45, F
@Sojournersoul so it comes off as if i am righteously angry, in other words? not trying to put words in your mouth..seeking clarity
LordShadowfire · 46-50, M
Absolutely not. Not from your end, anyway. But I'll be honest with you. I don't think she knows how to love.
