financially screwed over by a close relative? if so, did it cause you to reflect on your entire relationship and past events? were you able to forgive that person? if yes, how? i haven't spoken to my mother in 4 years after she manipulated me into a biz. deal and then d**ked me over.

i just can't believe a mother would do that to her child. they are suppose to be supportive and help you through life, not just treat you like a mark they can con.

i should also add that my sister is no longer on speaking terms with her either. she tried to take her kids for the social security check.

Sometimes people don't think how there actions will effect the other person. I've been in the situation myself with my Aunt she had stole money from me, and I confronted her and it turned into a big fight, needless to say we haven't spoke in years, and I will not give in. It's up to her and even then it'll never be the same. So you know in your heart what's the best. Good luck to you, I know it's different in your situation considering it's your mother, that's gotta be a little difficult. Good luck honey

Have you told her how you feel? What is her point of view about the situation and is there any chance its as valid as yours?
Nobody can make you do something you don't want to do, and this situation is made worse by the fact it was your mom. You can keep her out of your life, but she will always be your mom.
I would talk to her about it. Your mom is not just a close relative, alot of your own self esteem and personal worth is wrapped up in how she influenced you. You need to forgive yourself for buying into something that failed before you can forgive her. Unless you feel like she did it on purpose.
I read your additional note and just have to comment. Yes, that is what mothers are supposed to be like, however many are not. Some are just plain human and make the same mistakes we all do, and others, well they had no business reproducing. If your mom is the later, then don't feel obligated to include her in your life. I don't with mine.

Well, i havent but my dad has and if they did it to my dad it feels as they did it to me and no my dad wasnt able to forgive this person which is his uncle who scrwed him about allottttttttt of money but i think forgiving is important im not saying to go head and just forget about it but i dont think its healthy to hold a grudge especially on you mother but i can see where your comming from just take it easy your mother will always be your mother no matter what.
******Additional details response: Just forgive her in your heart or at least try but I am not saying to be all close to her ...time cures everything and let your forgiveness cross by time .
