yeh but since he has come i dont feel she cares what i do anymore i feel pushed aside.
That is why you have to make the time to be alone with her and talk to her!
but how will i say it? she will probs think i am bin stupid or tell me to get a grip
Maybe tell her that you don’t feel as close to her as you did before and you wish you could again. She probably thinks that it’s time for you to grow up. But, I think you are still too young to grow up.
i have always been mature specially compared to most of my family and that is why i would normally talk to her and she would understand but not now a feel unwanted and pushed aside i am a boy and i have o1 older bro hu is 17
what shall i do? i have had sleepless nights over this and i cant bair it any longer
Get a moment alone with her and let her know how you feel. Your mom sounds like she always need male companionship, does she?
You’re 16 and I am sure there are a lot of things you want to talk to your mom about.
Alright, I have given it a thought.
Your mother is (like most women of her age, with children your age) compulsive not to be alone. Which means that until she has no more children, she will attach herself to all sorts of many. And it is just random, whether it will be a nice guy, or a jerk.
Which means you will be stuck in this for a while.
All you can possibly try to do is grow up a little faster, be the man in house. Be responsible. Do you have any brothers or sisters?
Your Mom and father’s relationship was already in trouble many years before they actually broke up. They probably didn’t talk to their children about it so you didn’t have a clue what was happening.
I have had a step-father too that I didn’t like and he didn’t like me. But, I kept telling myself that someday I will have my own life and they, my parents will have theirs. Everything in my life will be my way. That kept me going a few more years until I married and was on my own.
I don’t really care, (because I am more mature) who likes and doesn’t like me because I know I can’t make them like me or change them. But, that doesn’t mean I can’t be happy with the ones that I do like.
So I would talk to my Mom and if you have a counselor at school or a pastor at church you may want to confide in them as well. In the meantime don’t stay by yourself too much, because you should be with other family members and your close friends.
