[QUOTE="THAT Gurl, post: 3405550, member: 45551"] Don't be too rough on yourself. I had a mom like your dad -- never knew when she was gonna twist right off into left field. She's dead and gone now, thank goodness. My life is SO much better now. There is no reason to be mad at yourself because you have a relative who is impossible to deal with. Do NOT buy into the ******** therapists and do-gooders toss out there that you have to try and have a relationship with a relative who is impossible to deal with. It takes 2 to have a healthy relationship. If you are the only one working towards that goal you are nothing but a punching bag. Don't feel bad for me. I have NEVER felt such a sense of relief as I did when I learned my mom had passed. And I've not felt one pang of guilt for feeling that relief. There was not a more mean, heartless woman on the planet. I hope things get better for you because I have been where you are. It sucks. [/QUOTE]
