Mother’s Day

My username shows that I have had enough with sending cards just because tradition says a particular date has come round again.

Now it’s mother’s day & it’s nagging at me. I do not want to send anything to my mother. Yet I often cave in because I feel so guilty if I don’t.

Anyone else get this?

i have a particular issue with my mum as I feel she has never properly listened to me and when she did listen she always made it about her. I don’t know if it’s possible that my personality makes me see her as a narcissist (only two other people agree) but that’s how I see her.

i don’t want to give in!

  • Oh YEAH - Mothers, Fathers, Easter, Christmas and Valentines day = buy some cards/stamps and send them off to who you want (or eggs for easter/presents for Christmas).

    It is now all about shops wanting our money. I even get told others do not like me celebrating a death anniversary - FFS if you don't agree then don't have a cake/chocolate then.
