I feel like expressing to my son how I would like him to occasionally reach out to me to say hi.
I know how pathetic this sounds. I held off on sending the needy text. Yikes, I sound like a gf he dumped. I feel like I’ve been dumped, too. I actually was.  I can keep reaching out to him once every two weeks, like I’ve been doing now since the wedding disaster. He will reply. The last exchange was a few cordial texts. He’s not cold, but not really warm. He never really was warm since before the rift, anyway. It was always just light banter, I suppose. I guess I am craving some love and depth. Has he no idea how heart broken I feel? He must know and doesn’t care. My husband said it’s normal for a grown son to only contact parents once every two months and that I should stop reaching out and wait for him. Well, I am on pins and needles over the waiting game, and I feel that he will never reach out. How is it best to handle this on my own? __________________ "And don't say it hasn't been a little slice of heaven, 'cause it hasn't!" . About Me--T |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
