tlee...glad that you are feeling a bit better this morning. I know the feeling of getting angry about "this was how your bparents are??" YES I DO!!! I want a do-over on a regular basis. I want a new bmom. But..that's not reality. I can't change who she is. I can't change how she is. I can only change the way I respond to her. I do get angry that I didn't get a "good" bmom...that mine is mean and nasty. Such is life.
My bfather isn't proactive at all. His relatives tell me that he doesn't feel he has the right to be. That he is respectful to me and the fact that my parents don't know...I haven't talked to him in over a year. I have never met him. He moved from Florida to Ohio and never told me. Before that he was telling me that he wanted to meet me, blah blah blah....so he moves to Ohio and never even tells me. His sister told me...months after the fact. (when I called her) Sometimes it would be nice for someone else to take the initiative!!!! I guess I'll take your mood from yesterday!!! LOL
I guess what we have to remember is that it is them that is missing out. I enjoy the fact that I can come here and people "get" me....
