[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I didn’t mean how I’m doing in a literal sense. Mainly that my mother doesn’t inquire anything about me personally. We could talk every day and she’s know nothing about me because the conversation is always redirected if I offer any info about my life. [/quote]

I really thought maybe I wrote this… seriously. I’m in the exact same boat and simultaneously being guilted by my parents for not calling them. But any time I do, it’s completely one sided. She doesn’t even ask about my DC but goes on about my sister’s kids. I’m fairly certain my mom is a narcissist, which explains a lot.[/quote]

You’re not alone. I have never been the favorite child. It’s even more obvious as my mom gets older and more dependent on our support. [/quote]

I came to terms years ago with not being the favorite, but it is SO HARD now that it's obvious she favors her other grandkids over my child (probably due to our relationship). And getting harder as DD is at an age where she notices the difference and asks/gets upset about it. Breaks my heart. I stupidly brought it up to my parents and now it's big time drama and I'm the bad guy because I don't call them enough. A vicious cycle. [/quote]
