[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]My mother does it and her excuse about not calling me is “I don’t want to bother you if you’re busy.” [/b]Well, then respect that I’m freaking busy and be grateful I used my personal time to call you, because I’d rather be curled up on the couch watching Netflix. LOL No advice, just commiseration. It’s best to just ignore the BS.[/quote] My mom is the same way and I used to play this waiting game and see how long we'd go without talking. Then when a coworker/friend hadn't heard from her dad for awhile and ended up finding him dead on the floor in his house, I decided I didn't want my relationship with my mom to end without contact due to me playing games and just started calling. She's 78 and relatively healthy but she's about the only family I have left and who knows how much time I have with her. Just call her and be glad you can. Sure wish I had the choice to call my dad.[/quote]
