Lay Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 my family has always been dysfunctional. my parents are constantly fighting and it makes me not want to ever get married. but lately, several issues have resurfaced. ever since the 6th grade i have felt no love from my mother, my other siblings feel it too. she never says the words "i love you" or embraces us. my Dad says that because her parents weren't the affectionate type, it influenced the ways in which she shows her affections toward us. it really bothers me and therefore, i feel uncomfortable saying i love you to her. my Dad and siblings say that she loves us, but it really puzzles and infuriates me that she doesn't say it ever. it is so cold, a mother shouldn't be this way! she should want to always hug her kids and ask them how they are doing and show them as much love as she can! i know i will never be that way towards my kids, i will be the warmest mother there is! my older brother says, "that's the way our mom is and we have to accept it", but i can't... i crave that loving affection and ever since i was in middle school i have always looked up to my friends' moms and wished that my mother could be that way. :/ idk what to do!
