I agree Lois, I do love my mother. I just really don't get how she can call me more than once a day to talk about nothing

To me that is weird..but yes of course I love her and would be lost without her.

I wonder how many times she'll call tonight

Why not talk with her when you can -- when she's gone, you won't be able to speak with her and you'll feel terribly guilty about how you're feeling right now.

I'm a mom and have 3 daughters - one lives abroad, one the other side of the country, and one 35 minutes away. I phone the one living across the country about once a month to check she is all right because her life is always so much of a tangle, and I know she likes talking to me. The one who lives locally is not communicative, so I only phone her when there is a specific reason - about once a month or so, or even more. I don't usually phone the one living in Hong Kong because she phones ME every few days - she loves talking to me because we have similar interests. Because she phones so frequently we can sometimes run out of things to say - so we take turns saying "nothing much has happened this end". But she still won't cut the conversation short because she likes to talk to me. Wouldn't you know that the one who is really close to me is the one living farthest!! She recently remarked that if she didn't phone me, where would she get advice? I give my kids lots of space - don't ask them for anything - but they all know that they mean EVERYTHING to me - they have only to ask and I will get it for them.

My mum hasn't called yet and it is midnight in London so I think I am safe for tonight, which is good because my brain is spinning from work today

Mothers are always mothers and daughters are always daughters, no matter what the age!

On the 14th of this month it will be 29 years since my mother died. I'd give anything to have her call me and talk to me everyday.

I say cherish her while you can because you only have one Mom and one day all too soon you will be wishing very hard that you could talk to her but can't

icklemiss21 · Feb 8, 2007

My dad died when I was 16 so I know what its like to not have a parent call anymore, but sometimes moms can just be too much

Nat, don't be all depressed. I remember at your age, I didn't really think or consider my parents' feelings whenver I was doing or not doing something. Now, in retrospect, I wish I had been a better daughter than what I was. Seeing my own daughter makes me wish I had been better at it.

icklemiss21 · Feb 8, 2007

Sweety, don't be depressed, sometimes we just need some 'me' time and mothers yakking about nothing intrude on that

Make her happy and call her, maybe it will cheer her up a little that she wont feel that need to call so much?

Of course I consider her feelings. It isn't about that, it is just I don't get why she calls me more than once a day for no reason. I love her more than anything. I am not some teenager who doesn't appreciate my mother. I do appreciate her.

Nat...I was talking about myself...not you

My mom never calls me

Since all us kids left the house, my parents are off traveling, working, taking up hobbies. Often I go a week without talking to her b/c she's so busy. I do feel lucky though, she has a life without me, and I don't get any guilt trips about it. Actually, I give HER a guilt trip about it

Lately I've been talking to my Dad a lot which is strange, b/c I never use to. But he's a good guy and carries a good conversation

It all because she is bored, maybe lonely. My father wont call me or my sister. But expecpts us to call him.If we dont, he gets upset. I have nothinging in common to talk to my dad about. i wish i did, or could find a way.

it all comes down to those 2 things,

really just get a phone with a speaker or head set. so you can do your normal stuff.

I realize this is a very old thread but my mom won't stop calling me at work! She has started this new thing where she always wants to come over to my house and bid on things on Ebay. Last night she lost a bidding war on a stupid cut glass pitcher and today she is still dwelling on it, and she called me at work and wanted to know the email of the person who bought it! I told her Ebay does not give that out, it's confidential. Then she just kept asking all sorts of questions about that pitcher that I didn't know the answers to....she just would not let it go. She asked me how my day is going and I told her I am busy. Then she says in a very dejected voice "Oh...ok...I won't call you for the rest of the week then." GGGGGRRRRRRRRR I have told her over and over I work in an open office and everyone listens in on my conversations and we are not supposed to get personal calls at work and I am very stressed because I have a ton of work to do and she JUST. DOES. NOT. GET IT. I am going to have to not answer any more of her phone calls.

I realize that I should treasure every time my mom calls...I just don't know why she has to call every day with nothing new to say

I do love her of course, and sometimes I feel bad when she lets me go because I am sounding all bored..

:censor::censor::censor::censor:, now I feel bad.

Ok I have to admit,I call my daughters home about 4 times a day too. But not all of my calls are for my daughter. I have 2 grandkids I call for too.My daughter lives about 10 minutes from me. If my son had kids I would probably call there too. but he is in Minnesota.

I'll add to the old thread!

My mom barely ever talks to me on the phone. Then she tells my grandma (her mom) that I never call her

. If I DO call her and she answers, she'll be like "Oh hold on let me get your father." Its like No, I called to talk to YOU too! Though, we aren't close like many mothers and daughters. My grandma and I have a great relationship though. I call her at least once a week.

My dad is one of those who if you call, he is on the phone foreverrrrr, usually complaining about my mom, brother, and the world :lol3: He will email me, asking me to call ... I'm like you have free long distance...if you email me, chances are I'm going to email back since its easier to do while I multitask :lol3:

dejolane · Apr 15, 2013

I call my mom alot who lives in Chicago only cause I have free long distance. Love it. My mom calls about once a week..

She lives with my younger brother and my sister so I have to call her to check on her so I know she is ok.
