[QUOTE="Beanner, post: 719295, member: 22275"] Thank you for responding and not judging. My son is currently 17. The thing was is that even though we were dealing with depression before I always thought we had a good relationship. Yes he was a child growing up and we had growing pains but I thought our relationship was good. It seems to me that he met this girl and everything went to :censored2:. I do not blame her for our issues, but I do believe she is manipulative and has him under some spell. He has had other girlfriends but he just doesn't seem to think clearly with this one. I try to no longer say anything about her because I don't want him to use the you hate her excuse. Tonight I told him I was very hurt and that you can't just expect to say hurtful things and for people to continue life as normal. He said it doesn't matter that is how he feels and that he is allowed his feelings. I for the life of me have no idea when I have been anything like he described. I held myself back from telling him what I thought his realty should look like. [/QUOTE]
