Hi Alison. I am a mom of a 14 yr. old daughter. I have just recently been divorced. Wow, it sounds like your world has changed drastically. Mine too. Can I just say I am sorry you have had to go thru this hard time. I am sure you have so many questions. I don't know all the details nor do I want to know them... but your mom needs your love and she needs you. I am sure you visit your dad too...and stay with him every other weekend . Even though you don't agree or know this other man your mom is your mom and she will always be connected to you no matter what you may think about some of her decisions...her love for you hasn't changed you are just as important to her as you always have been at least I feel that way about my daughter, she will not have anything to do with me right now and it hurts so bad because I love her so much. She is so angry that she wants to hurt me and she won't allow me to be apart of her life, because she doesn't like the relationship I am in now. Just love your mom you don't understand everything and probably never will but you do understand that your mom is your mom and nothing will ever change that fact no man, no divorce, nothing, she will be your "mom": No one could ever take her place. Loving is better for your health than hate and bitterness. She loves you. mini mouse ↑ |
You need to open up to your mom and tell her your thoughts. As for her new guy in the house,maybe he's not so bad once you get to know him. Invite him to play a board game with you. Maybe he doesn't know how to act around you plus people with depression are sometimes quiet. I'm sure him and your mom talk more than you hear or else he wouldn't be living there. If you really want to live with your dad after you have given your mom and her new boyfriend a fair chance,then you just need to talk to both your mom and dad about it. ↑ |
