[quote=Anonymous]OP here

I'm so sorry for those of you who can relate. It's not an experience I wish on anyone.

It's almost 3 months. We haven't made contact since we blocked her thanksgiving week. It feels surreal. We heard from my SIL over Christmas that my mother was saying they won't answer the phone. I don't understand why they are so mad, I didn't do anything at all, and saying she tried to reach out to us.

No idea if that's true. Knowing my mother she wouldn't have reached out and she certainly wouldn't have apologized. But she would absolutely paint us as the unreasonable dramatic ones to my SIL and her son.

We unblocked her # when we got home just to see if was making contact. Crickets.

We live 15-20 minutes from her. It feels weird but deep down I know it's for the best. I know she has convinced herself and prob others that she is the victim and we are so cold hearted to cut her out I know deep down she has to know what she's done. It's also so evident when my DH who grew up with a typical normal family is really not used to getting screamed at over the phone. I think she really let her mask down and knows it.

I find myself missing the idea of a mom.andni wish things were different but ultimately I wish she was a different person. Not sure if I will ever get acknowledgement for what she did, and how I dug myself out of it from her before she does but I'll work on not needing it to move on.

Thanks for the support here[/quote]
