how do i keep my hope alive?

[trytryagain]

i know i keep complaining about my mother, but it's very hard for me to keep my cool and be level-headed about this when every time i talk to her, she's telling me about how she was up all night long, worrying about me, or how i need to make sure that i don't let my H start making all the decisions on what happens from here.

i tell her, look, do i look like i'm worried to you?? i'm hurt, i'm sad, but hey, i'm still alive. it just hurts that she's written my marriage off already, the second he moved out she was just like, well, that's over, guess you'd better move on.

i guess i need to set up more boundaries with my mom, but even if i say, mom, i don't want to talk about my M or anything that's going on with my H, she just ignores me and does it anyway. well, let me just say this one thing. i understand that she is just worried and wants to look out for me, but it doesn't help me ONE BIT to talk to her and listen to her go on and on about what H needs to do, what i need to do, how i'm going to start my life over...

i'm just venting, but...SHE IS MAKING ME CRAZY!
