Mother's day is approaching. Are you close with your mom?

[mandyfire98]

Are you also similar to your mom in personality?

[NathanDavis]

yes, we are close... as in, we see each other often enough (my parents leave a few cities away but it's just a couple hours drive and they're here, visiting relatives, lol) because down here we're family oriented for the most part

I do get along very well with both of my parents and she is very close with her grandkids (my nieces) which is why they visit often

holidays and gatherings are still a thing... mothers day won't be an exception

as for personality, lmao... yes we have some similarities, but more than any other how stubborn we are (as well as determined, which is the positive side of being stubborn) which was also the reason why we would argue almost every week for 10 years!! lmfao.. (when I was aged 6 to 16)

but she raised me that way, to be my own person and make my own mind...

[OlderAndWiser]

I am vastly different from my family members, and especially my parents. When I was dating and a girl was meeting my family for the first time, I always warned them, "After we leave, you'll turn to me and ask if I was adopted."

Despite our differences, I am close with my mother and I see her frequently. My father died in 2007 and we were not estranged but we were also not close.

I had plans to take Mom out to dinner tonight but she cancelled earlier today. I will attend church with her on Mother's Day, and afterwards, we will have dinner at her home. She is 92 years old so my siblings and I will provide the meal.

[OlderAndWiser]

Thanks for MHO!

[tennisgirly]

i don't really know how to describe my relationship with my mom. we definitely aren't similar personality-wise, and we disagree on lots of things. i've always felt like there were some things that a girl should be able to trust her mom with more than anyone, but she's never really been that person for me. i love her and i know she loves me, but we've been through some hard times in the past few years and we've definitely grown farther apart because of it. we're just very different people and we have very different views on so many things, and tbh i'm good with that. i wouldn't say our relationship is bad, we're just not that close.

[Msputiton]

Ridiculously close. She is almost like my best friend

[Msputiton]

Hby?

[mandyfire98]

Very close with my mom but I'm still a daddy's girl

[Msputiton]

Yeah we kinda all are.

[lightbulb27]

Im a lot like my mom, we were close. She was sweetheart, but protective of her kids and closed off and introverted as well. lost her few years back, she is missed by us all. so lucky to have her as mom!

[Sour-rose]

hell no. I'm close because i still live in this house with her. But close? Nah. I'm changing into something I want, and she can't keep up. And she has done..many things to break our trust. So much so, i'm the one who can be manipulative and tell her nothing about my life. Aaand she wouldn't know the difference

[Leapfrog00]

I wish my mother cared about me. She lived somewhere upstate. She doesn't really care about me though. My health hasn't been too good, and she doesn't even call to check on me. Oh well, maybe one of the television moms will adopt me. Wonder if the mom from The Goldburgs is available, lol.

[Elliegirl]

I’m very close with my mom and we do have pretty similar personalities!

[Sirenboobzilla]

Mom and I have had more of a sister/bff relationship since I've hit adulthood.

[Anonymous]

No. I married and had a kid with her ex boyfriend. Even though she dumped him because he wasn't good enough as he didn't make enough money and had a small penis and was actually cheating on him leaving him for another guy she can't accept our relationship.

[mandyfire98]

Was not expecting that answer lol.

[Anonymous]

My mom is diagnosed with NPD. She has a sadistic side to her, I try to be forgiving and our relationship works well when I'm not in need of her. For example as long as I dont live at home it's fine but if I do I can't evan begin to explain how crazy she is.

[SeriouslyFunny00]

Yes I am! 🥰 I always try to hug her every time. She finds it corny, but I know she loves it.

[RobEdelman]

Yes. We’re both fairly introverted. She’ll get some nice flowers and a bottle of wine on Mother’s Day. Maybe a gift card for a restaurant she likes too

[PBandJ_Nerd]

Yeah. I'm going to try to get mom a variety cheesecake for mother's day. As well as flowers and a card.

[Sun_Kim-Ai]

Similar in personality, no. Close, up to a point, we are mending a strained relationship but things are going well.

But naturally both her and my aunt will get a special Mother's Day dinner and gifts.

[Shy_Steve]

Yes, I'm close to my Mum.

I Think we have different Personality, She seems to be more Confident than me usually.

[TCredo]

I was... but will say since she died a few years ago, while I have no regrets, I would have done things a little different with my time spent with her.

[OfMiceandMen]

Yes, I am close to my mom. She's soooo funny and makes me laugh all the time. She reminds me of Betty White.

[Quackthulu2]

I honestly don’t even know if the bitch is still alive or not.

[Agape93]

Nope. I haven't even talked to her in years, and we've never gotten along.

Not even close.

[mandyfire98]

I'm sorry to hear that.

[Agape93]

Don't be, she can go fuck herself with a cactus

[mandyfire98]

In that case I'm glad you don't have to deal with her anymore. Sounds like it might be a toxic situation

[Agape93]

Oh yeah, that's putting it mildly. If someone hurt you, or tried to kill you, would your mom at least see if you're safe or ok?

[mandyfire98]

Yeah she would. She'd probably try to kill the person that was trying to hurt me lol.

[Agape93]

Then she's a better mom, and I'm going to have to steal her lol

[mandyfire98]

She'd probably try to go after who tried to hurt you as well. 😂

[Agape93]

Lol if she does, just saying I have a good workshop with plenty of tools, and no neighbors in shouting distance.

[mandyfire98]

😂😂

[Agape93]

Lol.

[petitedollbabee]

Very close with my mum 🫶🏻

[Nikki1989]

Nope. I don't even know where she lives.

[CrimsonAngel09]

Our relationship was good, unfortunately she died in 2020.

[SawerBrown]

I was but unfortunately both of my parents have passed.

[mandyfire98]

I'm sorry for your loss

[Sparkie460]

I was close with both my parents but they are no longer around. My dad died in 2005 and my mom died in 2013. I'm a mix of both their personalities. I'm strict like my dad and caring like my mom

[stepyo99]

My mom is a wonderful person, she's done a lot to make sure I was raised right.

[Alexalex92]

yes, we respect the person who gave us birth and raise us up

[MysticDevice]

I really try to stay close. I visit and help out whenever I can but we argue all the time cause we just don't think on the same wavelenght.

[Mynameisbobby]

No I'm nothing like my mother, I care about people and she only cares about herself and my so called sister

[Wild_princess]

Super close... she is the person i love and respect most in world❤️

[fonduegirl]

I am.

I'm just not very grateful to this life. So she gets nothing. Boo hoo.

[Likes2drive]

I don’t have my mom around anymore or a wife anymore, just an ex wife so it doesn’t mean anything to me anymore

[LiamJHayden]

I go out with my closest friends and their moms. Especially my best friend's mom has been like a mom to me since mine passed.

[Jltakk]

Don't really have much of a choice since I live with her. I'm close with her and she loves me. She's more of a go-getter type of person than I ever will be though.

[worldscolide]

I haven't seen my mom in over 20 years.. and thank god im nothing like her.

[Paulychicagoluv]

I don't think we're ad close as you might assume, but I don't think we have the similar personality anymore

[Arik_jade]

Yes... i am very much closer to my mom... i share everything to her

[Guardian45]

I don't know. In some ways, I'm similar. Mom is all I have left, so we're tight!

[BLP11520]

My mom passed 5 years ago she was quiet I am not

[Sharkstealth]

I share a birthday with her every 7 years.

[leahzrc]

I hate my mom and can't wait for her to die. sorry

[Jazzy54]

Yes I am. I’m bold and outspoken like her.

[Ms_Facesitter]

No, but I'm happy for those who are.

[humanearth]

Mom died over 30 years ago

[AsaKyo]

Yes, I'm moderately close with my mom

[mommymommymommy]

Not really, you?

[HippieVeganJewslim]

So close that I want to alienate.

[LavLavLuv]

Not really lolll

[pethouse]

No, my mom forgot my birthday ☹️

[Bklynbadboy12]
