I know I have been struggling with the same thing for 7 years. I just think IF ONLY I could do something, my mother would change.My son, as I told you, works with someone just like my mother. He became really tormented by this woman and someone finally understood what I went through. Today, I talked to a really close, real life friend. His wife is exactly like this. I have to ACCEPT that my mother will never change but it is really, really hard. ------------------ Want to Read Simple, Sexy, Fun Articles on Astrology?

Nothing in the 6th or Virgo. Why do you ask, A?

I will be honest. I have been obsessed with this since I was 14. I just could not figure it out and I tried and tried and tried and all these years later, I am doing the same thing ------------------ Want to Read Simple, Sexy, Fun Articles on Astrology?

YES, how did you come to do so? Do you still have contact with them? If so, what is the nature of it? Stilted? Friendly? ------------------ Want to Read Simple, Sexy, Fun Articles on Astrology? Check Me Out, DUDE. http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

It's not that your mother can't change, it's that YOU can't make her change to be someone you wish. No one can't change or control what other people think, unless the person himself want to change. We need to accept that and simply let go. But nothing is simple in the practice of letting go. You can't wake up one day, decide it's time to let go and magically all your problems and hurts all go away. Letting go is everyday practice, naturally sometimes you slip up, it's okay, then you can raise up again and keep practicing On other note, I wonder if you and your son have personal planet on libra on seventh house placement?

So it may be libra thing. Libran love to be connected with other people, and when she at odds with someone, it could be very distressing. I'm libra moon and I was pretty much like that, sometimes still am. Anyway since I learn more about my libra moon, I learn to accept the fact that I want to be liked, I like to be get along with everyone. It's part of who I am. But when I feel insecure if someone hate me or something like that, I told myself "honey that just your libra moon acting up, chillax" That is how I let go my insecurities, by accepting my flaw as part of me and not be ashamed of it. I hope it can help you Ami Anne. I went through depressing state for quite some times, and it felt like I was merely existing. I hope you can find way to heal yourself and be your true beautiful self *hug* IP: Logged |

Thank you, Ung. YOU are a beautiful person, too!For me, talking about something really helps me to let it go. For this thing, I have been talking about it for 7 years but I am making snail's progress ------------------ Want to Read Simple, Sexy, Fun Articles on Astrology?

I completely agree. Some are hopeless. It's hard to accept - but accept it you must, to move on. At the end of the day it's "each to their own", and you have your own life to live. Always put yourself first. IP: Logged |

How do you know though? Some mental illnesses are incurable, so it may well be that she actually cannot change. quote: It's that YOU can't make her change to be someone you wish
I think this ^ would be a comforting thought when dealing with a mentally sane person who you simply don't get along with. But if you are dealing with someone who suffers from NPD for example, then no one can make this person change to fit in with our standards of "sanity" and what the majority of us view as "normal" behaviour. The person suffering from NPD will always lack the ability to empathise and hence, they will engage in behaviour many would find hurtful. IP: Logged |

I have so much admiration for you, Odette. You are so clear thinking in places in which I am fogged.I wrote a series of article on depression. I put one up on here and may put the others if people want but YOU will see my evolution in this and that my insight is what you said but the pain in getting there has been really immense. ------------------ Want to Read Simple, Fun,Sexy Articles on Astrology?

May be cynical, or practical either way.I tend to doubt people will change very much at their core so I rarely ever fall into the "if only" trap. Simply accept them for who they are as shown by their actions and move along or work with it if needed. NOW that does not work in romantic relationships..one likes what you like in a person romantically and there should be no deviations. Family and Friends are a very different matter. IP: Logged |

It's just sad when you sit and really think about it. So many live through other people, need validating from other people. Its a sad, sad world we live in. IP: Logged |

Well said, Padre dear. I have been thinking about you on this holiday season, my Friend.
