Breaking Negative Loop

From our previous converstion, I can feel deeply you're hurt in the parent-kid relationship and I don't know whether your trauma is caused by this? I'm sorry to ask about this, but I see it confuse you and make you rough....I think we need to think about an effective way to solve it and make you all have a better coummunication platform....

I have tried many times to work out on it. I feel I have pushed myself so hard to get mother love. I think, I was very empathic person from childhood. I would look at motherly women and look at how they give love to their kids. I could understand it is from them, from their own motherly hearts and not from kids. Kids don't know at all and they are new to this world. So I tried to go near my bio mother and ended up getting rejected every time I tried to contact her. This hurt my trust for her and of course it washed of all good impressions I had on my mind. I used to think she is loving me, but I can't see that. Now I know reality, she has never tried to take care of me. She thinks of me for a while, sees me as difficult kid to handle. She never made any good effort for me. I have history of physical issues from childhood and perhaps she senses that she will have to be with me all the time. She says she is busy all the time.

When I told her you don't love me, I know that. She told me look at those mothers, their kids are very obedient. This is why their mothers love their kids. You don't obey me. See, sunshine? Loving someone doesn't mean make them obey you blindly. She is completely unaware that most mothers unconditional love. She received lots of love from her own mother and proper healthy attention. but she hasn't given me anything, that's a puzzle. She comes across as very selfish, childish and self centered person.

This hurt me the most. I learned mothers are always with you. I thought why my bio mother isn't being with me? How she can leave me in crucial conditions? I don't know my dad knows this all or not. But he always defended her and I have seen one thing, she likes to be defended and protected by dad.

We have hardly conversed with each other. Just for few minutes. Most time verbal fight happens and she always wins them all. I tried to spend time with her and made sure of it. I was willing to talk with her and grow more with her. But she never showed any interest in me. Now I have nothing for her. I am going to forget her after sometime and will think I saw a very bad dream. I will begin to move on from this parents. I don't see any meaning or anything left in this relationship. They have given me hard moments each time. Never supported me. Never told me two kind words. I have no tears for them either.

Sometimes I think she is one of those women who don't like boy kids. They take kids as interference in their marital life. Her behavior towards me shows this all. I don't like my bio mother because she has almost no respect for life. When family members are around us, she gives me attention. but I feel that is complete fake attention. She fears of getting exposed. This is what I have picked up.
 
Sunshine, I can't believe I was hardly in my own control for 20 years. I obeyed them to get my happiness. I am sick of them. I would wake up and they would start firing orders to me. I had no option to get things I loved. So I used to please them.

I feel so rough right now get my own control over myself. Their controlling and interfering in my life has been too much for me. This is where I feel very hard, get reclaim my own control.

Even today someone rejects me, I feel worst. :(
 
I think you lack necessary love and approvement from your parents...This make you feel puzzled and confused all the time and when someone reject you, you feel bad.... Because you desperatly need love and support from outside world, in order to supplement the one you lacked in your childhood of your family life...

I believe there're tough and indifferent parents in the world or else there would not be so may problematic kids....I myself have met with many problematic woman who has been the mother of a kid,but still stick to their tough manner over everything and everyone....

I think things than can do is try to communicate or seek the best oppornitity to open up a conversation...For instance, you buy some nice food or small presents back home, or take them to go for a trip....But if all fail, no way of communication is available, then what you can do is to finish the rest 2 year academic life and find a job to support yourslef to lead an independent life....I guess this is fairly good for such situation as I used to have friends with such problem.They feed back to me that their relationship with parents got better after they move out from their home....
 
It's so nice to see that other people can see fault in their parents. I have so many friend who look at me funny when I say disparaging things about my mother. It's nice that we don't follow what others think, but follow the truth.

Hi,dear traumagirl, yes, in reality, not so many people would agree with you if you say something bad about or express your unsatisfaction with your parents, it seems to be connected with culture background. But truth is truth, if you don't figure out it, things could never been changed or solved...

I guess once you have any problem with parents, you would not receive many idears or support. Because in Asia countries, many pepople would rather keep appeased attitude over this kind of issue, because saying something not good about parents equals to condemning the god....

I have so many friend who look at me funny .... but follow the truth.

Me too, many relatives and friends don't care about what happen to people around and show an indifferent attitude towards some misfortune around them and even make fun on this issues...I have witness some of my relatives who show their curiosity, like discover a big news ,when they heard of someting unfortunate happened to kid of their relatives and I am pretty confused about this....

I think people who refused to learn the truth would finally be fooled and victimized by the truth....
 
Big hugs to all with horrible, uncaring mothers ((((Jaret)))) and ((((traumagirl)))) and anyone else who needs a ((((big hug)))).

It's so hard, I know.

Jaret, I think in time, you will find a job and be able to support yourself and be free of the toxic binds from your parents.

Until then, lots of :hug:

*Relieved* to hear this. Thanks much for understanding. I like your post and it is very positive. :)

Traumagirl :hug: Yes, It does help us. It does make me feel heard and understood by someone.

Shellbell, thank you so much. Big :hug:

I am feeling good to see this all supportive replies. :)

Hehehe. They are fooling themselves most of the time. They don't know they can never fool truth or hide it.

I am sorry you had to go through that rough time and my some family members did the same with me. But after knowing their real face, I directly told them to discontinue relationship. That day I felt peace and also was happy with myself that I am standing for positive attitude and healthy relationships in my life. I faced that situation same way like big news. :laugh:

Yes, It's true in our asian countries. We can find majority who deny that parents can be bad,too. They all compare parents with god. One can become god in others eye only when they are filled with love and have best intention for oneself. Love is god. I do have one god like friend and I feel safe sharing with them. They never asked me to obey them and always follow them blindly.

I agree with all facts you have shared here.

Hope you're having good day there, sunshine :hug:
 
*Relieved* to hear this ...I am feeling good to see this all supportive replies. :)

I am so glad that you feel relieved and supportive !;) Actually, I always see that you're active and positive and always being ready to help others in this forum!:happy:

I am sorry you had to go through that rough time and my some family members did the same with me.

Thank you, Jaret.:hug: I also feel sorry for you to have gone through the similar....To this of situation, I keep silent in the surface, but inside my heart, I feel them not worthy to continue the relationship and I think if they need support in future, I would not give mine fully to help.....
