I did not grow up with my mother. However, ten years ago, I was brought back to her so we actually had the chance to become close to one another. It didn't turn out that way. I don't feel that she loves me. She never cared about me. We are not on speaking terms. There's a saying that children can turn their backs on their parents, but not the other way around. In my case, it's the other way around. My mother hates me. That's also what I feel for her. I know this is not good at all. How do you deal with this?

It is broken in your mind.Sometimes we have the wrong thought about others,including our relatives. I had the same idea with you,but i changed.When i was in primary high school,my bike was broken,so didn't go home as usual.My father went out to find me,he came back later than me that day.My father worked far away from home when i was a child,he only come home one or two times one year,so we hardly chat,also he didn'nt accept welcome,i just thought him as a guest. Now ,you can think........
