Oh no , their 50 m an hr turns to 45 m an hour ! <| sep |> Not my buttons , not my gumdrop buttons ! <| sep |> Hey kb 06609 , I know this post was over 4 months ago but I ' m curious to see how you ' ve been doing since you wrote this ? I just went NC with my mom 2 weeks ago because she ' s been verbally and emotionally abusive for 23 years I submitted a post on here last night about how I got to the point of cutting her out and same as you , my grandma which is her mother is the closest family member I have . And she ' s on my side one day and the next feels sorry for my mom and asks if I could try and talk to her to work it out . She ' s 92 and old school so I don ' t expect her to get it but it sucks because she is my best friend and I tell her everything . Has your mom tried to contact you since you went No Contact ? If so , how do you handle it ? I received a sappy text the other day saying that maybe I ' ll realize she ' s a good person when she ' s dead . Ooookay , whatever .
