01/17 "Get Your Act Together!"
Quote From: lalalalalaok so what happens when you 24 yrs old and want to move out and have your own life but your mother wont let you??
my parents divorced a few yrs ago and since then my mom has leaned on me as if i was her husband, i finally got an apt with out her knowing and just told her one day that i was moving out then she refused to speak to me for 3 months! i have a full time job and pay all my own bills i have a college degree and no criminal record, no kids, no evidence of bad decisions in the past, i hardly even drink but still she makes me feel like im a bad person for "not being there to take care of her" the problem with being there is that i cannot date from there because she feels as though i am "cheating" on her if i have a boyfriend Good for you!!! It may have taken a little subterfuge, but it worked for you. Because of bad decisions on her part, my sister and my dad didn't talk for almost two years. They've both gotten over it, and now have a terrific relationship. Give your mom time. She'll figure it out. Just keep the lines of communication open. Be ready when she decides that it's time to let you have your own life and mend those fences.
