Posted by Jim on 1/25/2005, 10:11 am So how to draw the line between honesty and hurting her is something I will be struggling with. I dont want to hurt her. In fact I have a built in need to put her feelings before mine and protect her from hurt. I suppose protecting her feelings all my life could have something to do with why I dont like being with her. LOTS of suppressed stuff here. Thank god for EC. I am able to go into this knowing that I dont need to talk to her to do my processing. The processing is personal and I do that on my own. What I am doing is giving them an explanation they are asking for out of respect. Its coming cleare as I type. I dont have to expose my inner processes to them. All I need to do is give an explanation that they can understand and will work for them! great, I feel much better now, thanks guys

I'm going out to lunch with my parents today (im 42) to try to explain to them why I dont spend much time with them. The truth is I dont value their presence in my life. I dont like my mother and I feel very uncomfortable and anxious around her and I would be absolutely fine if I knew I was never going to see her again.
