Hi,
I have a 30year old married daughter. We have had a good relationship for many years.
But just recently I feel like I have been used and abused by her a lot. I mean it's not serious, but just her whole attitude towards me. Like she never appreciates all that I do for her. I've gone over to her house and cleaned once a fortnight. Helped with cooking a meal for them once a week, we have helped them financially to buy their own home. I've always been there for her.
When ever we have had an argument, I would always be the one who would think it's all my fault and say that I am sorry.
She is pregnant at the moment - and had been to see the doctor for a routine check up, so I asked her how she was and how the bubs was doing. She replies back to me and says. "I don't feel comfortable talking to you about how I am anymore as you haven't been listening to me or taking me seriously"
I was very hurt, when she said that. So I just said ok then.
And left it at that. Since then she has not called or spoken or text me.
I do listen to her, but I sometimes forget things, my health is not good and she knows I have a bad memory. I have cared so much for my kids, even putting them first before my husband. I have given so much to them. Which is why I feel I just don't deserve to be treated this way. Does anyone have any advice for me? It's been over 3 weeks now and I have not heard from her. I do miss her and am thinking about her all the time and how the pregnancy is going. Should I be the one to make contact? Or would I just be allowing her to treat me this way.
