[quote=Anonymous]I understand, OP. My mom died when I was 22 (my dad had abandoned our family decades earlier so I didn't have any parents once she died). My mom missed everything yet all of my friends had their moms (most still do!). It would kill me to hear my friends complain about their moms over the years! Didn't they realize how fortunate they were? I would've given anything to be annoyed by my mother one more time! :lol: There have been times when I had to distance myself from certain friends who were particularly insensitive or because a particular situation was just too painful for me. But it's been 20 years now and time truly does lessen the grief. I am no longer resentful of the relationships my friends get to have with their mothers. I know my mom is still with me, even if I can't speak to her or see her. I hope you will one day get to a place of acceptance and peace, OP. Meanwhile, take whatever time you need for yourself to process your grief. [/quote]
