I think everyone's looking to replace my mother. Everyone thinks my dad's gf is this great woman...dad said she's the best cook he's ever been with...that kinda hurts. Andy, my bf, is always raving about how good she is and that I'll have a mother soon again (his mom).
I can't stand everyone trying to replace her or having a replacement for me! For one thing, I think my mom was a much better cook...and another NOBODY CAN REPLACE HER!

honey no one can ever replace your mom.. Trust me.. i have had mother-n-law and they will never come close to replacing my mom..
now being there when your mom cant is one thing being freinds with them is something totally differnt, and being close to them is something up to you.... I love you and care for you a great deal.. Do not ever think someone can replace anyone in your life.. Moms are the harderst to ever replace and if they are not dead, then no way can you do that.. and even if they were, then no one would want you to.. and if someone says you will have a new mom, yes you will have a new one when you get married a New Mother-in-law..

I agree with Lady D. I am lucky to have a wonderful mother-in-law. However, she will NEVER, EVER be like my mother. Never. But she isn't a bad person. She just isn't my mom. So I understand that too.
Something else to think about. New doesn't mean better. New simply means different. Change. (Change is very hard for me.) When my grandmother died, it was hard on my mother. Years later my grandfather remarried. My mom never called this woman "Mom" but she came to care for her. She made my grandfather happy, and that was what was really important to my mother. No one can ever replace your mom, but it doesn't sound like anyone is trying to. They're simply comparing. Comparisons can hurt, too. I know it is hard, but life must go on. Grieve your mother for as long as you need, but don't stop living yourself. That is not what she would have wanted. Good luck.
