I'm going to attempt to cut a long story into a short one!
Ok relationship with mum - up and down, she's narcissistic and a social alcoholic (my diagnosis not her) is mellowing with age
Great relationship with older sister - similar age kids etc always got on well, slightly competitive when it comes to mums affections and attention (single parent family, blah)
My mum regularly has my sisters Chn, moved to be near them and away from us, very involved in their lives. And it hurts. I'm really bitter and it's affecting my relationships with both of them. It won't change, I don't want to confront it as I don't want my mum to do things out of me having a paddy but because she wants to. Which she obviously doesn't.
Basically - how can I get passed this? I want to keep things good between as, well, she's my mum and one day won't be here and for all her faults I love her and she loves us. And how do I stop it eating at me with my sister?
