Hello GGChar: I don't know... I'm 68 & my parents have been gone many years now. But even before they had passed away, I had left them behind many years prior. It's a very long story & I won't trouble you with the details.

I'm male & perhaps it's easier for us guys to do this than it is for women. From my perspective, I think you had every right to be upset & I think you had every right to say so. Perhaps, if you "blessed her out" you mostly got angry rather than to calmly state your case. If so, that was perhaps unfortunate. But, then, that's easy for me to say. Perhaps then calling her back to have a "chatty conversation" was not the best follow-up either. But there again... easy for me to say...

I personally don't have any stamina for this type of thing. Like I said. I just cut my parents out of my life. Yet, even at 68, I still sometimes find myself having (heated) conversations with them, in my head. I doubt we ever get past it completely...
