How close are you with your mother?

everybody loves their mom!... I myself love her very much.

I would say that I do have a close relationship with my mom, I tell her stuff, stuff from day to day things to crushes to my thoughts regarding whatever. Although I cannot lie and say that we get along very well all the time, of course there are those times that she gets into my nerves for the simplest things and vice versa. But then, all's well that ends well. I even tell her the reasons why I get irritated at her sometimes, and she does the same, sometimes it sounds a little bit harsh during the actual confrontation but then it never really is serious. I love her just the same and I know that she does too.

Just recently, I finally disowned my mother. I have no respect for abusive and neglectful parents. I should have disowned her years ago, but I gave her chance after chance, but she still hasn't changed, and I realized she never will.

I'm same as you but i don't the feeling.I love my mother,and i suport my mother's personal life, she only my mother but also herself.Rest your mother and change yourself.Thanks.

i am very close to my mother, she is my bestfriend, not only my mother but also my father and brothers, they are my bestfriends. even i am millions of miles away from them, but i still feel that my mother is on my side especially if i am homesick or lonesome. though i called them on the phone only once a month and sometimes on the internet i always feel their presence. i really missed them.

My mom and I have had our hard times. There was a time when she would make me so made with comments she would make to me I just couldn't believe it. And it seemed like talking wouldn't even help. But as I have gotten older we have a much better relationship now. I think a lot of my mom's thing was she wanted to be in control and have me be there all the time. I am a free spirit and when I have gotten the whim to do something I go, and I don't think she liked that very much. My brother has always been the home body , needing my parents for everything, and I have never been that way. It took a long time for my mom to accept my ways and now we are very close.

dear pamcake, i too was very close to my mother. But unfortunately, I lost her last year to cancer.

As the oldest, you must have had a lot of responsibility, especially with your mom not connecting that well with you and your siblings. I do have a very strong relationship with my mom. Lately, we have had our differences of opinions, but even today we were talking very friendly about our major disagreement. I feel like she is my best friend. We speak to each other as equals, even though I am careful to be respectful like a child should be to her parent. I am not nearly that close to my dad, so it makes me even more grateful that I am that connected to my mother. She isn't into drama, and she always puts everyone else ahead of herself. I wish she didn't, because it takes a toll on her.

When I was growing up, I didn't have a very close relationship with my momma though I wished that I did. As I have gotten older, I have developed a really relationship with my momma. I usually try to talk to her at least once a week (she lives almost 2 hours from me) and the last time I talked to her, she told me 'I love you' and that is something I have not heard in years. My mother and I have had a talk about if and when she gets too old to care for herself and it has been decided that she will live with us. She felt good about that.

I to Love my mom with all my heart, But she to has a lot of mental issues going on in her life .....I think about her all the time but have learned to distance myself from what was bringing me down. Best wishes Stacy

I am really close to my mother now. There are times when I wish she wouldn't say anything but I look up to her and am able to talk to her about many things. It wasn't always like that. When I was growing up I have to say I hated being around her. She would find stupid things to punish me for. Like I didn't want to play cards with her once or take a BC powder for my headache. She was kind of weird and I hope I'm not like that with my daughters. I was somewhat scared of her. She would say that we had to do our chores around the house before our homework and I didn't agree with that.

I think among nine siblings, i am the closest to my mother.She can tell me anything she wants to.In fact, she can confide me things about my sisters and brother. By the way, I'm the youngest in the family...

My mother and I have a love hate relationship. When we live in one roof she makes my life difficult. She's opinionated with no basis on her opinions. She makes me feel inadequate when we are together and yet I supported her financially, I took her in when she had no house to live in, I paid for house rental her food and yet I am a good for nothing daughter. I prefer that we don't live together, life is simpler that way.

Hey, the same thing happens to me too when my mom gets to visit me regularly. Whenever she remembers the argument she had with my sister-in-law, she would tell it again as if I haven't heard it a dozen times already. But I just let her talk and get all the steam out, if it can help her reduce the stress. I'm so close with my mom that whenever I can't stand my husband's presence sometimes, I pack my bags and leave the house with my son. She lets me stay with her for a few days but will always tell me that charging off like what I always do, won't help solve my problems with my husband. She is my protector and she is my bestfriend. I could talk to her with my deepest fears and she would try to give the very best advice that she can think of. She does still teaches me how to cook properly.LOL.

so close. we treat each other as friends, mother-daughter and a bestfriend. ever sinc, if not all, i confide to my mother of like everything i do and whoever im with. in my past realationship i asked her or tell her of almost everythign i want and everywhere i go. i love her so much that i cannot afford to live without her. we had bad past together, like a fight, of course but ive learned my mistake and took it as my lesson as a stubborn child hehe.. love my mother. we usually talk about everything when i go home, 'cause i live away from them because of college. i miss her everyday.

I don't see my mother as often since we both moved and are now rather far away from eachother, but we see eachother when she comes to the city where I live, to work. She works on call as a supply teacher so she could be anywhere, but when she comes to Guelph, we get together.

We don,t call each other a lot ( 1 times every 2 week) and we don,t see each other often, but we are still very close. Not only she's my mom, she's also my best friend and my guardian angel. She is always there for me and always giving me good advice :) I love her so much :)

before I was close to my mother.but now, no more.She just doesn't understand what I feel.She'd hurt me and does not even apologize and she even calls herself a mother in that matter.

My mother is my best friend and always has been. she has always been there for me no matter when or where. My mother has sacrificed and given everything to me. She has always stood beside me, even when she knew I was wrong. I don't know what I would do without my mom. I see her everyday and when I don't we talk at least 5-10 times a day. I have always wanted to be close to my mom and it seems like the older I get the closer we become.
