Sorry, Amom chiming in here. I guess from my perspective I would want my DD to tell me so that I can support her. There are ups and downs in every relationship and I want to be the one she turns to when there is a situation in any relationship she has and needs to talk about it. Why would it be any different if it was a relationship with her boyfriend or her BMom? To me it wouldn't.
I do understand your situation though and if I had been in your shoes probably would have done the same thing. Your mother was sick and didn't need to feel the anxiety of feeling like she was being replaced.
This raises a question from an amom perspective, why not share? I know the worries are about the amom feeling replaced but as long as there is a reminder that that isn't the case isn't it mom that most children go to regardless of age? I know I would love some days for my mother to still be alive to talk to.
Sorry if my $.02 upsets you but it is how I feel and truly hope that my DD and I are able to talk about anything regardless of feelings being hurt.
