I don't want to see you this weekend. I'm afraid of opening myself up to you and then getting hurt again when I realize you aren't the mother I've always wished for but never had.
I don't want to have to coach myself through the pain of stuffing my feelings when you start crying or express extreme emotion.
I am tired of being your mom. I wish you'd be mine like you asserted so often you were. "I'm the MOTHER!" you'd yell.
You know what? I'm the daughter. Please tell your emotions to cool it so that I don't have to act like your caretaker.
I know it's not possible, but I thought I'd ask anyway.
