lyDia_LoU answered Saturday September 3 2005, 9:07 pm: I think you should go see your mom. You don't have to fall into her arms and act like nothing ever happened. If you don't feel like you're ready to see her then maybe you shouldn't. If you didn't go how would you feel? And you don't need to start putting your life in her hands anytime soon. However, you should give her another chance. When you go and see her you might consider going somewhere public. So if it was uncomfortable or anything strange happened people would be around and if you wanted too, you could leave easier. [ lyDia_LoU's advice column | Ask lyDia_LoU A Question ]

If you feel like your mom going to pull you back, and not forwarp, then jsut be polite to her, but don't give her your trust. If you feel like she can give you something that can move you foward in life, then you should see her more often. It's your choise. If you are really afraid to get hurt again, then try to face your fears. Only this time without giving much care to them. If your mom abondoned you once, she might do it again. I would talk to her, and try to help ehr. But I would not trust her, nomatter what. I'd be sacred to trust her. Just talk to her sometimes. Don't let her feel abononed either.
Sigh* it all depeneds on you. Whatever you feel like will help you get further in life.... [ shining_star's advice column | Ask shining_star A Question ]

If she's better and sober and has changed, then she'll want to see you and apologize for everything. [ TrojNgrl6907's advice column | Ask TrojNgrl6907 A Question ]
shrink2be answered Saturday September 3 2005, 10:02 am: see her, she's your mother.
she odviously cared enough to carry you in her stomach for nine months and give birth to you.
give her a chance.
treat her like you two have just met, start all over like there are no strings attaching you.
-hope it helps- [ shrink2be's advice column | Ask shrink2be A Question ]
LoveNJstyle answered Saturday September 3 2005, 9:58 am: well if she wants to see you, dont plan on living with her and starting a whole new life like in movies and stuff. maybe you should visit with her, do some mothier-daughter bonding over lunch or shopping so then you wont have to give her all your trust and get hurt as badly. hope all goes well. <3 [ LoveNJstyle's advice column | Ask LoveNJstyle A Question ]
Mercy_x_Me answered Saturday September 3 2005, 9:43 am: Sometimes the past continues to be painful for what feels like forever. She is your mom, and she probably really does love you. If you have to see her, you don't have to trust her right away, just love her. She's had a hard past whether or not it was her fault. There's no way to tell whether or not she will leave... just don't get too attatched I guess, in your mind you can pretend she really is. If she doesn't leave, it will be so much easier to trsut her after this. I know my advice is kind of quirky, but I hope it's resourceful. [ Mercy_x_Me's advice column | Ask Mercy_x_Me A Question ]
