Is it normal to feel guilty when my mom dissagrees with me

4 Comments

Well a Little backstory: we're a closenit Family and im a hermit who doesnt like Change much if i dont start it out of my own comfort. The closet where all of her AND my clothing is in is in my room so she has to go in at least once a day and we dont have enough room in our appartment to put two closets(one in my room one somewhere else). She often doesnt respect me in the sence that she sometimes thinks whatever i do differently is either wrong or weird. I feel really guilty everytime i put my foot down and want her to understand that im not a toddler and sometimes know about a Topic more than she does even if shes older. If somebody could help me out that'd be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    Here's the #1 way that always works to develop respect from your parents: move out of the house. Until that point, you're a leech and will never be treated like full grown man/woman.

    My mom is very domineering, I NEVER feel guilty about disagreeing with her.

    Yea I though I knew everything as a teenager. When you get older you realize your thinking was all messed up.

    You feel hurt because you love her. I feel the same way.

    But she also needs to understand you, so it's a tricky line to draw. But she is she, and you're you. Don't change who you are to become someone your mother would love but you wouldn't. She needs to learn to love the real you. And as much as it hurts (believe me, I know), this is your life, you make your own choices.
