I was, and am not now. And I'm so upset that my mom and my brother won't have a relationship with me b/c of it. Sure, they see my kids and stuff, but she goes back and forth with these feelings of missing me, talking to me, forming a closer relationship, then all of a sudden she will feel guilty and tell me "We have to keep our relationship on an as needed basis." It hurts so much for her to do this, even though I understand her beliefs b/c I was raised that way, too. But now that I'm on the other side of it, I hate that she won't get close to me - I feel like I've been outcasted. I feel discriminated. I don't want to talk bad about the religion, I understand it, and most of the things I learned I still believe. I just hate not being able to have a relationship with my own mom. I know she's only doing what she believes is right in her heart, and I know it's hard for her too, but it's not fair!!!
What do you guys think?
