Sounds to me like you have grown up. Stop betting yourself about that. A bit of anger and self preservation is healthy. Some people do not deserve to be in our lives, no matter if they are family or not, after all Hitler did have a mother. Happy holidays and peace to you.

I was raised feeling that my existence is a burden to others.

Jolanta comments on Dec 16, 2020:

Are you the oldest in the family? Unfortunately there is no school that one can go to learn to be a good parent. Usually they try to do the best they can. Your father was just a product from his own upbringing as my mother was. I also felt as a burden, an inconvenience and a failure when I was growing up and long into my adulthood. It took me years to realize that I could be happy without having her approval, which I never ever had in anything I did. I tired to be a better, different parent with my own children but to this very day I think I did not succeed even though they say I did, they tell me that they always felt and feel loved but I find it hard to believe it. I think we are far too harsh on ourselves a lot of times. The important thing is to be aware and try to not make the same mistakes our parents did with us. About your own relationship with your girlfriend. Saying that she is a great girl is not enough. You need someone who you love with all your heart and who feels the same about you.

No, not crazy. Debilitating, hurtful, earth shattering, painful. Usually with men when they say they no longer love you is because they have an affair and think that that new person is crazy about them, that the new person is going to worship them until cows come home but little do they know. Ask him why he no longer loves you, what has changed. He will very likely lie to you. You will heal, you will live, you may even find someone new in time but before that, you will cry and hurt. It will end one day and you will be okay but one thing you need to do is to start loving yourself if you want to heal. Take good care of yourself and we are here or I am here to get your hurt and frustration out.
