My mother makes fun of me with everyone

i feel so belittled by her with everyone who ever comes by be they my friends or hers. she always put me down for everyone.

it is very hurtful. she must hate me or something.

It’s no wonder that your feelings toward her are strained, when you are trying to appreciate her.

My partner’s father does that to me, he thinks he’s so funny.

thanks for your support both of you. with her being a holocaust survivor just about everyone was against me. judy

just because she was a holocaust survivor does not mean she can treat you like rubbish.
that then gives anyone who has had a ’ trauma ’ the excuse to behave badly !?!
your mum sounds like a horrible and insensitive person.
you seem like a really nice person…don’t letter your mother’s bitterness…over shadow your beauty :sunflower:
take care :alien:

I don’t think she dislikes you, maybe she’s just trying to be humble (all be it at your expense).

Which puts her age at at least 72 years. If you can tell me how old she is now, and when she was in the camps, I think I piece together more accurately why she needs to have a different victim in her life. But suffice it to say this much for now: She wouldn’t be the first female to come out of the horrible experiences in the camps who needed to make herself feel powerful and in control at the expense of others “near and dear.”

notmoses. I overreacted. she is actually not that bad.

don’t worry for me too much – I am young and enabling myself as much as I can from day to day. thank goodness.

how are you doing?

the truth is, darksith, she is a beautiful person, which is what makes it hard for me when she starts up with me (not too badly, I just can handle none of it…).

you know what I mean?
