Today, I complained to my mom about her always acting cold towards me, and that it feels like she doesn’t love me anymore. Her response was, “You’re damn right I don’t, not since you broke my favorite glass last year.” She used to tell me she’d always love me no matter what. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mom said my name and startled me so badly, I jumped and dropped the glass I was holding. She still isn’t speaking to me for breaking her favorite glass. FML
Today, I told my mom, "I love you". She responded with, "What? I never told you I loved you." FML
Today, I approached my mother for comfort, because I've been feeling depressed and unloved by anyone lately. She replied, “Honestly, I stopped loving you back when you were a toddler.” FML
Today, I accidentally broke one of my mom’s favorite glasses while she was away. My dad saw and offered to tell her instead that he broke it, because, "let’s face it, if she knew it was you, she’d shove the glass shards down your fucking throat." FML
Today, I told my mom she made me feel unloved my whole life. She called my sister and apologized. FML
Today, I was feeling guilty about an argument I had with my mother right before she left to go shopping. When she got back, I ran to give her a hug and tell her I loved her. Unfortunately, in the process, I knocked over and broke her new $200 vase. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because she heard me say "love you" on the phone. I was talking to my mom. FML
Today, I invited my mom over for lunch so we could discuss how she broke my trust while she last babysat for me, and that as a result she won’t be babysitting for a little while. She then yelled at me and told me I was being disrespectful and dramatic. FML
Today, my mom said that if I wasn't her daughter, she probably wouldn't even like me. FML
Today, I had to listen to my mother painstakingly spell out to me why broken glass is extremely dangerous. Feeling insulted, I jokingly asked her if she thought I was "retarded". I then got yelled at for "swearing." I'm a fucking adult, but my overprotective and condescending mother seems to think otherwise. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

If possible find a replacement glass online that's the same. Gift it to her, and then cut her out of your life. You deserve better, than a mom who won't love you over a piece of glass. She will grow old alone and regret it.

When she said "no matter what," she couldn't imagine you destroying her favorite glass. That glass must have been a helluva piece of drinkware!

I would highly recommend DBT therapy if you're able to utilize it. Best of luck, I'm sorry you're going through this :/

Why are you pushing DBT on people who are not engaged in self-destructive behavior?

Whether she loves you or not shouldn't affect you. people come and go. parents are no different. A friends parents can be better than your own. don't read to much into and use it to make you stronger mentally.

Is this the same person who posted the FML where they broke their mom's favorite glass and the father decided to lie and take one for the team?
