It's just nice to talk to someone who understands the mix of emotions you feel. I mean sometimes I feel quite aggressive towards people who want to help, but I don't want to surrender my independence that I've had to cultivate - and by the same token I am crying out for someone to be a "mum" to me.
Yes!! Thats exactly how I feel. Its just those down moments when you just want your mum, you could never ask someone else to step in and it isn't anything particular you just want to be mothered. When my grandma died I went through a lot of depression cause i realised I was the oldest female in that bloodline as my mum has brothers and I am the oldest cousin too.
I guess I was lucky enough to have an adult relationship with mu mum before I lost her so compared to someone who lost their mum quite young I am fortunate...
Do you think there are many mm's in the bb community?
I am glad I had my mum until adulthood and that she saw 2 of my children. I used to be in a motherless forum online and the women who had lost their mums as children had completely different issues and needs to me.
Maybe they would let us start a motherless mothers thread.I have come across one or two others here who don't have mums.
