[quote=Anonymous]I had a big birthday this week and my mother called me at 8:00 and spoke with me for less than a minute because she was commuting to work. I didn't hear from her the rest of the day. This is not unusual for my mom, who is just very selfish. I think I have pinpointed the cause of my pain with her is that she has never once gone out of her way to make me feel special. Because this has gone on for my entire life, you would think that I would be used to it by now, but once again I have allowed my birthday to be marred by her minimal acknowledgement. I have a DH and kids who made it fantastic and a bunch of friends who reached out to me. My Dad and brothers did, too. Anyone have any tips out there to get over the pain once and for all? She is not toxic, in the general sense of the word, but damn if I wish that I could just let her actions and mean-spirited ways not get to me. [/quote]
