My mom and I haven't got a long for a years. She always puts me down. Doesn't like anything I do it seems. I don't feel comfortable around her because of this. I want to write her a letter about how she makes me feel. I don't want to talk to her face to face. What should I do?

Start writing. I doubt that it will do much good, because she will probably just say it's all in your mind. I have a mother just like her and she even thinks I would steal from her. She is 76 now, and I'm finally done with her. It feels good not to have to keep trying. Her love is like the proverbial carrot. Unobtainable. If it helps, there are a lot of people out there that are good people, that will never be loved the way they want by their mothers

My mother would write us kids letters telling us how we made her feel. We called them "poison pen letters". It got to the point where we wouldn't open them. Talking is much better communication than "reading between the lines" so to speak. How about buying a few of those "emotion type cards" at Hallmark. Send one every three weeks or so. Kill her with kindness. When she ask why you're sending her a card tell her because I love you. See how this works.

Don't write her a letter cause she will only blame the failed relationship on you. If your mom is like my mom they only see our faults and not theirs. I have tried talking to my mom but she only want to argue and I end up in tears because she just doesn't seem to acknowledge any wrong. I suggest just distance yourself that is what I have done because you have your own life and don't let this ruin it.

write the letter. i had an issue with my dad some time ago. i couldn't talk to him in person. either i would cry or i wouldn't be able to say everything i needed to so i wrote him a letter. it wasn't nasty but, i told him how what he had been saying was making me feel. he hadn't said anything awful, just enough to hurt me. the letter worked. we didn't discuss it. it just was. try it. maybe it'll work for you. good luck.
