Is anyone else's? I ask very little from her because I'm often made to feel guilty for imposing on her time you also have to answer a number of questions before she answer if she is able and something have to be run by her partner I wouldn't mind but they don't live together.
Iv just asked if she was able to drop something off to me I can't go and get it because i wouldn't be able to bring it home. I was a number of questions (interrogated) then was met with now at hush hour ? She agreed to bring but later then hung up on me this is fairly normal. She lives 5 minutes up the road there is no heavy traffic she has to drive down four roads that's it. She lived in London most of her life so she should know what rush hour traffic is. She seems to have no problem driving around at that time if she was going to see her dp or doing something for him. Anything to do with him isn't a problem and is done at a drop of a hat.
Also when she is with him she becomes practically uncontainable if you need to contact her.

How old is she ?

Why do you always need to be able to contact her?

How old are you?

Do you ask her to do a lot of favours for you?

Sorry for the double post.

It's a bit pathetic if she's running around after some bloke but makes excuses to you. But what can you do? Some people are reliable and get their priorities right... others live in la-la land. Even mothers :) Shock Don't ask for anything and you won't be disappointed.

Your mother sounds like she has and continues to put this man before you for her own reasons. You did not make her this way.

I would continue to ask for very little from her with a view to not asking her for anything at all. She will keep letting you down.

No I don't need to contact her all the time my point is if I ever need to contact her in an emergency I wouldn't be able too.
No I do not ask my mum a lot of favours but Sometimes I have no choice but to ask her as there is no one else especially if I have to go somewhere and I can't take ds with me. I'm single mum to my ds and no contact with his dad

It's made harder by the fact that she said she would help and support Me and when I try and get some support it's not there. She very forth coming with her giving her opinion with little thought with how others feel
I have two other sibling and I know my sister feels the same.

She's also very good a bitching about you so you can hear if you go against her
