[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I usually only post on DCUM when I have something positive to say, but DUDE. [b]Hasn't anyone noticed that the only this OP seems to want is shopping experiences with her mom?[/b]

OP, it is entirely possible that your mom sucks. But before you come to that conclusion, can you take a step back and ask yourself if you are just looking for the wrong stuff from her? Instead of dress shopping and registries, are there other ways you can enjoy quality time together and celebrate milestones?[/quote]

DUDE, did you read the part where OP said "She seemed envious if my dad and I did stuff together together" and "She never gave advice" and "She didn't console me when I was upset." Those aren't about missing out on shopping experiences.  Those are significant emotional exchanges that anyone would expect from a mother.

I can't believe that after reading OP's post with the above included that you'd ask her to "take a step back" and ask herself if she is really just asking too much from her mother before determining whether or not her mom sucks. Let me save OP the time: Her mom sucks. And PP, your reading comprehension sucks too.
