[QUOTE="house of cards, post: 141803, member: 2005"] I grew up in a home that was totally ran by my mother. She was highly critical because in her words " if you were doing it right, you already knew it and if not, you needed to be told" There was never compliments and it hurt me a great deal, low self esteem. But that was my whole childhood and you are talking about a short time while you are both stressed with redefining your relationship. I admire you for being so self aware and seeing the need to work on it, it doesn't make sense to have her leaving with more baggage between you, but she isn't going to remember just this time. She has the whole length of your relationship inside her heart. [/QUOTE]
