Her obliviousness she blamed on “major personal drama.” That’s not good enough.
: I had a close friend for at least 35 years. She lost her parents first, and I was always there for her and her family, attending funerals and the visitations after.me to say how sorry she was for my loss. No funeral attending, no visiting, not even a phone call! I was very hurt by it and still am.
She went into it in great detail. Throughout the two hours we spent together, she did not ask about my family. There was no apology, no accountability, no regret and no acknowledgement of the pain she caused me. Without repair, you’re just going to continue to feel resentment. And the drama factory whirs back into production. So, decline the invitation.: I have an adult daughter who moved out but does not want me to change her former bedroom.
Yet, she has trouble letting go. Whenever I mention that I want to redo her former room as a guest/sewing room for me, she gets upset. I do not want to give her any anxiety, yet I feel imprisoned by her needs for everything to stay the same. It is as though her breakdown and my husband’s death have put me on a life path I do not want.: While your daughter may feel powerless against her anxiety and grief, she has a responsibility not to wield either against you.
