Didn't know that even though I don't have a mother who does anything remotely motherly to me beyond paying my rent and continuing the years of emotional abuse that's better than having no mom at all. **** them. It might seem that way to people with parents but it's not.
Well Growli, I don't think those are the kind of people you want in your life anyway. I find that people in general are so poorly educated about abuse that it can make it hard to have a deep supportive relationship. I think that its best to look for someone who can be a little open about their own problems (eventually, as the case maybe), and who wants to empathize with and understand other people. I think that's the only shot you have at a real friendship IMO.
