Hey bballer,

My mum is probably the most bitter person I've ever known; she had an awful time with her father and he abused her terribly physically and mentally & emotionally and she never got over it. She has so many wrinkles from screwing her face and mouth up that her face could be a road map for the flinders ranges.

But I understand why my mum is the way she is. However I was with her so much I started to follow in her footsteps so I had to do something about it before I became like her. I changed my attitude and I know I have more to be happy about than bitter about so I keep that in mind daily.

Is your girlfriends mother or father that way? If so maybe it's time to tell her that she is just like them? It may jolt her back to reality and encourage her to be the person who attracted you in the beginning. Or tell her that if you make her that unhappy then maybe the relationship has run its course; both of these things will make her think and maybe will get her to see how she is,

Good luck with this,

Rhia
