fly when you're together! |
You
have a rather strained relationship with your
mum. Raising even the most minor issues with her
runs the risk of an exhausting fight, you simply
don't agree on anything. You've hung up and walked
out on her many a time to avoid (or even after)
hurtful words and your history means that you
are in a terrible state even before you see her.
Is there anything you can talk about without rubbing
each other up the wrong way?
Have you ever been able to go for more than a
couple of hours without seeing red? Your mother
must be a particularly exasperating woman, has
she always been like this? Maybe you just haven't
been able to accept her as she is, or maybe you
see too much of yourself in her. Think about how
you react to her. Why do you find it so hard to
stay calm? Perhaps she awakens emtions from your
past that you haven't been able to overcome, like
feelings of failure or low self-esteem which developed
in your childhood. Stop playing over these emotions
like a stuck record, you're not a little girl
any more. Try to create an adult relationship
with her and build new links, for your own peace
of mind if nothing else. |
