How to have a good relationship with my mom by marthathehipster

"It took an enormous amount of patience and understanding."

How I did it: I stepped away from the situation.  I refused to be wrapped up in whatever drama was taking place.  I lived my life and allowed her to live hers.  We kept our distance for a very, very long time.  Eventually, we spoke briefly about it and that was that.  She is who she is, and I am who I am, and we're related.  I love her for who she is and just as she is.  I don't expect anymore than that from her.  And I mean that in the truest, kindest, loving way.
