Constructive criticism?

I hope you find some peace when your son finally leaves for uni. rubylady here are someuntil yours arrive on Friday.

Sorry you're having a hard time again ruby, hopefully you will get stronger when he's gone and then change the locks!

Flowers from me too Ruby I hope you feel much better soon xx

Just caught up with this thread. Talk to someone when you can ruby, too much thinking time isn't always helpful. People are here for you. Not long now until Uni day. Wishing you peace.

I hope you feel better soon.

Is it tomorrow, the big day? Safe driving if you are taking him after all although personally after his tantrum I'd be pointing him towards National Express

Thank you to you all, you are very kind. I am sorry for saying vile, I didn't mean on here, but in my private life, sorry.

No, Daphne I am not taking him, I have a man doing it for me. I couldn't, not with how I am. 9am Friday is when he goes.

I have just re done my food delivery. More soup. I need my stomach to settle. Thank goodness for the rain, that always calms me.

That's the plan Lona, to get stronger when he goes, and change the locks. How can I get strong when I hear that I am a bitch? How can I have self worth? If he was a partner I would throw him out lock stock and barrel, but a son? How am I supposed to be when he wants to come back to visit? He either changes his ways or he doesn't come back at all. But will he? I doubt it. I think he has eventually got me scared of him. I can't believe it has ended up like this.

Hi Rubylady, I think that once your son is out on his own in the world he will have a good hard look at himself and see what a good mum he has.

Thinking of you today and tomorrow. Stay strong.

I hope you feel better rubylady do you feel as if you've reached a crossroad in your life, that can be a bit scary, perhaps your son feels the same but his fear comes out as a bit aggressive. As for people being 'kind' I'm often a bit embarrassed that I come across as too 'kind' you know the sickly type. I'm honestly not like that at all and can stand my ground in real life if I must. I use GN for light relief really. So I keep off the really heavy threads. I'm just not 'up to it' anymore. In actual fact some people's comments make me laugh out load. I like a bit of wit, caustic humour and irony. A tread is like any conversation in any office or workplace everyone puts in their two Pennith and it moves and develops almost like Chinese whispers.
