It must be in our biological wiring, but I feel like a child never truly fully gives up on their parents. Just when I think my mom couldn't disappoint me more, she somehow does.

You’re not dumb. We just… hope they’ll be different and it sneaks up on us in these situations

The good news is, it never changes. Even in your 30s 👍

hey so children are psychologically predisposed to giving their parents the benefit of the doubt and as many second chances as they want, you don't need to be angry with yourself for still having hope 🩷

I remember telling my therapist that I "forget" how my mom treats me which is why I always end up back in the same situations and she cut me off and said "No... you're her child & you're looking for a mothering relationship in her... as a child should do. She just can't give it to you." So no... you're not dumb, you just want a mother. 💖✨

“We all have to deal with it.” What exactly are they “dealing” with? 🤨 🫠

You’re not dumb. We’re hard wired to believe our parents. This will be hard no matter how old you are. We all mess up on this sometimes. It’s okay.

You’re not dumb, you were being hopeful you could have a healthy relationship. That’s human nature ❤️

I had to tell my mom “are you giving me a gift or an obligation? Because a gift doesn’t come with strings or stipulations. It is something that is freely given. If it has conditions, or renders me indebted to you than it is an obligation and I don’t want it.”

I’m taking this as a sign to keep holding the line and not trust any ostensibly appealing thing my mom does going forward

You are neither dumb or naive, 23 is so young, we are all hardwired to want our parents. It's VERY hard to detach from.
