Does this happen until I Die?

Your mom will continue to treat you like that until you set some boundaries. You are an adult and you deserve to be treated with respect.

People will treat you the way you allow them to treat you. Even parents.

Thank you everyone for letting me know.

My grandmother is a very passive woman, who does live with us. However my own mother had to take care of both of her parents since I was very young. My grandfather was very sick for quite some time. My grandmother did not drive so my mother sort of took over.

I moved out when I turned 19 and my mother was upset with me but she got over it. I recently had to move back home due to a lay off. But things had been great actually even considering some difficult things healthwise she was going through. She got great news on Thursday and then Friday we had a nice dinner and all was good.

We have a wedding shower this coming weekend and on Saturday we spent the day together. She has lost 90lbs and needs new clothes so we went shopping and she had her first manicure ever. It was really nice.

On Sunday when she just flipped like that over the timer on the stove I was really shocked. I know Moms will be Moms but its what she said under her breath that really shocked me and upset me.

This morning she pretended like nothing happened but I did not. I am still upset with her and I am not apologizing. I didn't do anything wrong.

It will end when you decide it's enough and not allow her to treat you that way any longer. Sometimes it takes something radical to happen. My Mother has constantly criticized me-I wear too much makeup, not enough, my clothes are terrible, she doesn't like my hair straight/curly/tucked behind my ears,I need to lose weight,etc. And she's mean about it. I finally stopped talking to her for about a month. She emailed me and I told her that quite frankly I was done with her and my Father treating me the way they have for almost 40 years and they had two choices: stop, or no more contact. We'll see how it goes, but only you can control how people make you feel.


Totally off topic: Bumber, how on earth are Korean mothers different???
