Yes, I've been a legal adult for decade and a half. She can go a period of time where she is great to be around....like a friend. In fact, I felt encouraged for a while, because we went a long period of time where things were going well. It's just when she gets into one of her bad periods where she can be hurtful. I guess right now, her bad side is coming out. I don't really know what is going on with her, but I guess it's not my job to figure it out. I guess I need space from her, but I do miss her "good side." I know it sounds unhealthy, but I just lack support, so I will take every bit that comes my way. Sometimes she doesn't realize how much words can hurt though. My brother lives with her, so it is worse for him. The friends that I have left are off doing better things, or they are married and do not live near by. The guy I was dating died a few months ago. So it can be lonely.
