I just do not know what to do. I do not want to ignore her bc I feel bad for her predicament & even tho she wasn’t great to me as a child, she had her moments, also she came from her own trauma.
Now she’s older, less confident- a lot bc of the people she lives with I think. I want to help her feel like she has her “own people” but I don’t think she really likes or respects me -tho she won’t say that - and I think she does feel bad if I don’t contact her but she doesn’t like talking much & I most often end up accidentally offending her just trying to have a convo 🤷🏻♀️
she’s older than her husband and his daughter is an adult living with them and I feel like they gang up on her. Not physically. She is safe and living comfortably, I just think she’s lonely and sad but I don't know how to help. It also is difficult for me talking to her bc it brings up dark stuff done to me as a child most of which I don’t think she can even comprehend or would bother to consider. So when I don’t contact her she prob thinks I don’t care as apposed to I care a lot but it’s too painful.
I can’t see her bc I don’t trust that family based on history, and I have my own trauma, but I can call or write. Which again I don’t think she pays much attention to 👀 🤷🏻♀️ 😂 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️😐😮💨
Also thank you 🙏🏼
