I found out on the sat evening before mothers day frommy daughter that my son wants a 30 day repreive from me! he did call me on mothers day and was nice. i guess i'm not the mom he wants to have anymore because of mental illness that he doesn't believe in and my weight which he hates and def. his wife beefing him on of whats right and wrong in her culture which is def. different than ours.
thing is he hasn't spoken much to me since he moved in dec. so for 5 mos. the first mon. we talked once a week. he's only called me 3 times since they moved.
tonight he texted and asked how much it cost to send his tux to him. he can't text my husband becxause my husband doesn't know how to text. we had a little texting going on and then when i said well you'llhave to tell me about your surfing some time there was no more texting
that really hurts deep down deep deep down. i thought i was communicating with him and then zap nothing! he just totally ended the conversation . i guess i'm going to have to give up and give in and let her have him solely because thats what its lookin like. he's a man now and he's taking family life on very strongly. he quit his plumbing job and i'm really glad for him which i was able to text to him because i told him on mothers day to go after his dreams cz u only go around once.
the other thing that is bothering me is i'm loosing friends becuase of my physical and mental disabilities. i guess they weren't friends to begin with.

i'm tryuing to make paragraphs but i guess i need to dlb space. sorry. my husband tells me that we have lost m for good and i believe him. i've heard the species of human this woman is is all for their side and not for us. she said she didn't want me seein her babies and she probably will have that prophecy come true. o well and my daughter i'm wondering might not ever have any.

i'm ever so depressed and seem to do somewhat cecedntly for a few hours every day. i can't say everything i want to say because i'm not ever doin that again.

Its all I in this isn't it! how selfish thanks for reading

It sounds like you were having a good conversation with him and then asked him a question that in no way should make him upset and then he didn't respond. Could he have just gotten busy? When I text message, I never feel the need to tell the person I'm text messaging that I have to go. Whole conversations often just get left hanging and to me that's just the nature of text message- it's not like email or even instant messenger where you really can communicate everything that's going on at the time.

I definitely do feel for you with how they have treated you- especially the daughter-in-law. I hope your relationship with her can continue to be worked on because once you have grandchildren you will definitely want a relationship with them, even if you secretly can't stand their mother. Also just because your daughter says they may never have kids, that may just be her way of getting people not to continue asking and bothering her about the topic. Because that's what my husband and I told people too even though we knew that eventually we would want kids.

Hang in there Fran. I know it's not easy.

you give him what he wants and give him his space. in time he will realize his mistake. i know it isn't easy and i know it hurts, but if that's what he wants, then so be it. it is no reflection on you that he wants to cut ties. it is all on him. it is him making the choices for whatever reason he is making them. hugs

thanks otw and kitty. they have told everybody that they are starting a family at the end of this year. we'll see if that holds true considering my son in unemployeed right now.
my husband wants to go to san francisco this fall and drive down the coast and see them. I'm kinda sick of cali but we may have to do that since i don't think they'll be back here for xmas like they said they would be every other year. SO......

I'll try to lessen my suffering by going back to old coping mechanisms. They work the best so?????????????????!@!!!!!!!

thanks again
