I raised my son to become a man, create a life for himself to be self supporting and happy....and he did, astonishingly fast. While I am so happy and proud of him, I am feeling grief and loss.
That baby bird left the nest and never looked back! He graduated college, got a good job, moved in with his gf who he plans to marry, and really blew us off. When I call him, I sense an attitude of separation. I guess it’s mostly due to the bad start we’ve had with his gf. He’s become a part of her family now. I feel abandoned. I love my son with all my heart. We had the best relationship until he flew the nest. Now I feel like just letting him live his life and not even trying to ever see him. I can sense the influence of his gf tugging him away from us (especially from me). I have always called him at least once a week. He calls occasionally, now hardly at all, if ever. Let him live and be well. I did my job as a mother, to raise him to be self sufficient...and now I am grieving and feeling such loss because HE has made us feel that way. I guess I didn’t teach him to call his mother sometimes and make peace between his woman and his family. What should I do? __________________ "And don't say it hasn't been a little slice of heaven, 'cause it hasn't!" . About Me--T |
