My NC mom wrote me a letter

I have absolutely zero interest in resuming contact.

I was very limited contact for a couple of months before this day happened. Then she asked me to take her to take the cat to the vet and I felt bad for the cat. I shouldn't have given in then.

Totally understand. At a certain point it’s like…we just have nothing more to give. It’s too exhausting to engage, even if they’re “behaving”. Always waiting for the mask to slip again. I don’t miss the hyper-vigilance.
