[quote=Anonymous]She could be a hoarder, especially since she absorbed all of her mother’s possessions after she died.

You feel sure she is not sad about her not having children, since she has been with your kids & you don’t hide your mom stuff. I can assure you she definitely could be sad to go to your house & see your kids. I know I struggled with that for a good while. It sounds like you haven’t  talked with her about how she feels about this - did she have hopes of being a mom when you were younger? And now she does not have kids, is not married /trying to have kids, and her family is getting smaller with her mom’s passing. She’s not going to tell you “this is painful for me” - or at least I didn’t tell my friends. I put on a good face&  cried on my way home after quite a few get-togethers with friends & their kids, even solo get togethers when they would just be telling me about their family life.

Maybe you are too close to the situation to see things clearly, but it sounds like she could be in pain for some obvious reasons. Maybe she thinks meeting you on neutral ground - not her location where she is foundering, or you location where you are with kids & family - would be the right place.
