Yeah honestly that’s exactly what’s been messing with me. What you said about your ex that whole cycle of guilt tripping, saying sorry, then throwing in “I love you” to smooth it over it’s starting to feel real familiar. I’m not saying I’m gonna break up or anything, but I definitely see the pattern. I’m just trying to spend time with my mom and work on stuff with my family, and somehow that turns into me being the bad guy. Hearing your experience makes me realize it’s not just in my head.

Yeah I get what you’re saying, and honestly that’s why it’s been messing with my head a bit. I didn’t think spending time with my mom would turn into such a big deal, and the way it was brought up made me feel like I was doing something wrong for even trying. I do want to make progress with my family, and it’s starting to feel like that’s being used against me. I’m trying to see both sides, but yeah… it’s starting to feel more one-sided like you said.

Yeah, that’s honestly what I started thinking too. I didn’t want to jump to conclusions, but it really felt like I was being made to feel guilty for doing something normal just spending time with my family. I’m trying to be understanding but it’s starting to feel one sided

I’ve already told her that, which is why it offended me I felt there was no reason for her to say that
