loving your mom?

I know we are supposed to love our moms more then ever but my problem is my mom does not give me the impression that she loves me. i wanted to write a list of everything I love about my mom because i did a list about my dad and i could not think of anything for my mom that would be presentable to her, it was more like I love that she has brown eyes and hair because i inherited that, I love that she is not abusive, it just looks like i could not come up with anything better, and i actually couldnt. she dosent get that she hurts my feelings often and the problems she creates in my life she thinks are good things she is going the things she thinks are bad like discipline is actually good, im glad she disciplined me as a kid she dosen't discipline my sister at all. she is unemotional and she dosent care when i cry she just says stop your being too sensitive and dosent think she actually hurt ym feelings she says i cry just because i want to cry not because i feel bad. I know im supposed to love my mom but how do i love someone who dosent like me back?

I've never had a good relationship with mine. It's hard because it makes me doubt that I could ever be a loving mom when I don't even know what that would look like.

It's the hardest thing for young women to grow up without a loving mom. I hope you find something constructive to do with your spare time rather than go the dangerous route that I did.
