[quote=Anonymous]OP, I don’t know if this applies to your mom but - my mom is like this. It’s how she has always been. She takes family for granted and runs ragged meeting external obligations like work, volunteering, church. It is disappointing but I have learned not to expect much from her anymore. It’s who she is. I don’t expect more but I also don’t give more of myself so that I get in these situations and wind up being hurt and feeling like my high school boyfriend rejected me or something. It’s very triggering as I spiral into all the other times she did this so I anticipate these situations more and am less flexible with her and with my time with her. [/quote]
