My mother... She was always there. She was a housewife who made sure that dinner was ready every night. She did the cooking and cleaning and shopping and drove us kids around. She was the Girl Scout Leader, a choir mother, etc. etc. etc. She was really good at DOING things.
But she is emotionally unavailable. She just doesn't get emotions. When I looked out the window I was longing for a connection that didn't exist. At least if I could see her, I could feel the physical connection - and that was all there was.
I'm still looking for the connection/comfort. I get it sometimes from my therapist.
I'm sorry that your mother was emotionally unavailable. Was your dad around for you?
