[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m an only child, but there is an imaginary favorite sibling of my parents that keeps popping up with different names they get from people they meet that are close in age to me. They prefer other people’s daughters to me. I was born to be never enough. This was the biggest thing I ever dealt with in therapy. I’m not competing with these people any longer, and when they start comparing me to these women, I say goodbye and go where I’m wanted.[/quote] Are you me? My mom had the same playbook except she had a favorite child too. Did you find the people they chose to be favorites outside the family didn't have even half the qualities mom requires to be acceptable, but she would put the person on a pedestal. Then, maybe months later or years or even decades, that person says the wrong thing to her and is garbage and she finds a new random person close to your age who is perfect to her. I used to be so hurt, now I just see her as deeply disturbed.[/quote]
