I have taken my mother out for Mother’s Day every Mother’s Day for the past 8 years. The one year I didn’t she didn’t do anything despite have 5 other children. I felt so guilty that after that every year I made sure I included her in my plans as my siblings never saw her Mother’s Day.
this year I invited her as normal but she told me that it was too late a meal for her and she’d be too tired. I was taken aback but accepted it as she has been under the weather lately. I then found out 3 days later that she had happily agreed to a mid week dinner a half hour later meal time then the one I booked with my sibling. I was really hurt that she turned me down saying it was too late but said yes to my sibling at a meal that was half hour later then my one. I just feel hurt and upset. Am I right to feel this way or shall I just drop it.
all I can think is my sister rarely sees her so my mum would never say no to her whereas I try to regularly ring/text and see her so maybe easier to say no to me ??
