thank you concerned4stepkids, las12 and tishie
I did mention it to my councilor the other day and she said we would follow it up in our next session.
My boyfriend did deal with it well, I think. He held me and took me away from his mother to his room where he told me he wanted to get me away from the house and I shouldn't have to be put through that (at this time I jut felt an urge of protection towards him because he shouldn't have to go through it either!). I'm not hurt that he didn't tell his mother not to do what she did because I understand that he didn't want to upset his mother more and, after all, she was under the influence of drink and I'm being assured she won't remember what happened and doesn't even mean what she's saying. I don't believe this though, there must be some truth behind it? Or maybe it's just jealousy of her son being with someone else but her?
His dad took things over from there and she turned on him (again I felt awful because he has all this to deal with AND being strong for his two boys).
I've tried talking to my boyfriend before though but he doesn't want to be upset (but it's upsetting me! is all I want to scream)
Thanks for your support and advice, I will talk about it more with my therapist,
Molly
