[QUOTE="Signorina, post: 540375"] Hey Elsie, {{{hugs}}} Right now I am in a very similar place as you. Maybe I am projecting-but I read your post and I could totally relate. My difficult child has been around a bit also as a "guest" -- and it feels so darn awkward. I want to bridge the distance somehow. Yet I know to bridge the distance means that we would fall back into old patterns and that would be worse than the current distance & awkwardness. My difficult child is turning into a stranger. A polite, distant relative. And it's terrifying and yet it's also a relief. All that aside- I am so glad that YOUR difficult child came to you. Did the right thing by visiting his mom while in town. And that you felt strong enough to draw some personal boundaries. You've really grown & I admire your strength. {{{hugs}}} [/QUOTE]
