....and I side personal note, something you made me realize......
I had mentioned my mother was mentally ill and pretty much laid a lot of blame on me when I was 17and my dad left. It was all about what I was doing to HER. I think if my mother was still alive and somehow she truly apologized for the pressure and blame she put on me, we would have had somewhat of a good relationship. I just wanted her to stop blaming me and everything else for how she felt and consequences to her actions. That's all I wanted.
And this is probably why I blame myself every time a relationship ends....... Ahhh, those FOO issues.
