Hi. I'll try to be quick! Me and my boyfriend are breaking up. Been together two and a half years, we really care about each other but we've been disillusioned into thinking it will work and have now decided to call it a day on good terms and enjoy our last few days together.
My Mum is honestly trying, but she's utterly useless with this sort of thing. For the past month, when I've mentioned possibly coming back home (with the thought being I'll come back alone) she comes out with treasures such as "Well, you always knew it'd end this way." and "You've known for a long time." and recently, since confirming that we will be splitting when we leave our current job (live and work together as seasonal workers), she's been fitting these anecdotes in as often as she can.
How do I get her to stop?! She's coming here on Sunday to drive home with me and it's a five hour journey! I've tried asking her and it didn't worked, I started getting a little short with her about it and either changing the subject or stopping convo when it comes up and so on but nothings working, I've told her that I don't want her saying those things, and that if I want to talk about it I want her to listen, not tell me how it was doomed from the start but nothings working. I really love my Mum and can usually talk to her about anything, but this is just getting to me so much and I'm dreading going to stay with my parents until I sort myself out a place to live and a job!
