I have a saying about the wife: there is not time so good she can't ruin it, and no time so bad that she can't make it worse.

I've had a few antagonistic people in my life.
My late Grandfather's second wife, of whom he married some time after my Grandparents separated was one such person and specifically towards my Mother.
Sure, they would act civil when other people were around, but that act was only just an act.

@Sidewinder it's just horrible isn't it.
You're right. It's not healthy. Your mother's antagonism is destructive. Do you have anyone you can talk to about this?

@onrealityofdreams so I have a therapist but she planned to visit me today. I just told her not to bother. Space is what I need.
@Mellowgirl That might have been a good idea on your part. You know what you need more than anyone could.

I have an amazing support system around me. It's taken years for it to happen but it finally did

Just say Let it go, mum - it's not worth getting all stressed out over. Don't sweat the small stuff: SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE, WOMAN! 😁

@Strictsir haha you don't know my mum, speaking to her like that just gets you a right ear bashing.
Then the "oh I'm such a terrible person, I should just keep my mouth shut!"
Years ago I would have apologised but now I say "Yes!"
Then she goes silent and or tells me she really doesn't appreciate the tone I take with her and starts finding an excuse to leave.

@Mellowgirl As you say, you can't win! 😁 Keep the peace by all means, but don't allow her to walk allover you. Set the limits of what you are prepared to endure. Best wishes.
