I Need Advice

I can't seem to move on and accept the fact that my mother has no interest in being a mother or isn't interested in our lives. She walked out on us 10 years ago and it affected us a lot, my dad was heartbroken and me especially as a young girl, I didn't have a female role model for me to look up to. I see people with their mothers and I get envious a lot. I never had a loving mother and when I visited my mother, she stood me up for dinner and didn't feel bad about it. Help me.

My friends and family keep telling me to move on and stop being stuck in the past. My best friend said I have a lot of mother figures and my aunts helped me so why who about my mother not being around when she doesn't want me.
It isn't the same as having a mother.

Wow. First of all I'm sorry that's happened to you but you need to move one. Your best friend is right. You have aunts that were mother figures to you so you need to be thankful that you have them in your lives. Be glad you have your father too. You have family that lives and cares about you. Don't push them away. I hate to say this but your mother has proven to you that she isn't interested in your life so why bother whining about it. You need to move on.

@EmptyGirl2001 That was so rude! Why would you say that to her. You are so selfish! I feel bad for your aunt but her niece is being selfish and doesn't even care.
