Is it normal that i have a love hate relationship with my mother

Oh god where do I begin. Well my mother she is a sweet and hard working mother and I love her for that. But there are more things that I hate about her. She has two children including me and she has had two baby daddy's and she still wants a boyfriend. That's the thing that burns me the most not to mention that she has scared my older brother for life. (Not gonna get into details about that. It's to long.) She is also the reason why me and my older brother went through hell when we were little. Thank god my dad cared alot for me and my brother and also she ruined my dads opportunity to fufill his dreams by putting him on child support. Did I mention that I haven't seen him in six years? :)
Well you get the point. I honestly don't know what to do. I've been contemplating on whether I should continue having any contact with her when I'm older.

    Well I think yea, you should wait till you move out .. Live on your own for a bit.. See how everything goes and yeah... But tbh I reckon you should keep in contact , she's your mother after alll and well I'm not justifying what she 's done to you guys or anything but you can't exactly judge someone by what they do and pin them down for that certain action cos u don't know what she's going through emotionally and what's going through her mind! If you 're really bugged by it then sit down ,have a chat to her about how u really feel - and be mature about it, like they always say .. Communication is the foundation of every relationship:)

    - so I personally feel that way but you don't HAVE to do it! Just think about it thoroughly ,but I don't think u have to make a decision now ! And like I've mentioned, she's your mom.. And she'll always be...s o you just have to live with what she£s done and try talking to her about it... If ur close enough to her try and help her change :)

    Good luck anyway x

    I really don't know why. I think it was meant to be sarcastic face.

          Sorry for neglecting to answer the question. I tend to do that often.

          I think that your hatred for your mother sounds justified. Maybe once you do move out and live on your own for awhile, your feeling might change a little. If at all possible try to remember any good times that you might have had and think about those things. Sorry about you not being able to see your dad too. I know from personal experience how hurtful that can be because my parents are divorced too. It sucks sometimes, but you just have to keep on going you know?

    Maybe if / when you are in her position bringing up two children on your own, and needing a reluctant man's financial help, you will understand better.

    I don't understand some women's constant need for men, but maybe she's lonely now that you two are older and don't need her as much.

    I'm sure you're old enough to find / visit your dad on your own.

    Why did you put that smiley face there?

      I was wondering that too, maybe it was supposed to be a sad face?

        A sad face would have made sense.
