Books about bad mothers?

[Anonymous No.20145557]

Even better if they're poetry, but fiction is okay. Could be from son or daughter point of view, it doesn't matter. Narcissistic mothers, cold mothers, controlling mothers, this type of stuff. Thank you.

My only advice is to go to therapy and go no contact, I can't do either so I cope with consuming media that makes me feel less alone in this

Mom left when I was three, met her when I was seven didn't know her. Spoke once when I was 18. I have aphd, prestigious fellowships, a wife, three kids, house, and a few published articles, book forthcoming.

One loving parent dedicated to you is enough, that's my dad. I've told him that often.

Dashiell Hammett. ‘The Thin Man’.
Somewhat accurate about what Borderline Personality Women are like.
Borderline wasn’t even a classification when it was written.
Hammett must have dealt with a lot of women with issues.

Did your mom leaving affect your ability to form relationships with women at all? My mom left when I was 7 and I only ever saw her sparsely after that. I've been terrible with women all my life -- no idea how I'm supposed to act in a relationship. I'm decently attractive, was funny and charismatic in school growing up, but I just couldn't ever get close to women. Dumped and ignored pretty girls who were into me and chased beautiful, unavailable girls since I was 14. I've always wondered if I'm so bad with girls because I never had a mother, or if it's just because my dad is an autist who never remarried or taught me anything

I wish I told my mother how grateful I was and how much I loved her and appreciated her before she died.

Please spend some time with your mothers anons, just take her out to dinner or take her to a trip with family. She'll appreciate that forever.

Not really, I've had a number of close women friends as a professional in the last 15 years. I married my high school sweetheart. We don't believe in divorce so we work it out

sounds like your overcompensating and bragging on an anonymous image board is definitely a symptom of that.
Reconcile your relationship anon.

I've noticed a lot of women seem to hate their mother than men. My sister is no exception to this either. She blames our mother for a lot of her shortcomings.

If you’re dumping and ignoring girls, isn’t that a matter of your choices, rather than your capability or lack thereof? Seems like you’re looking for a relationship that will resolve your mother’s abandonment, but in order for the woman to be able to give you that resolution she has to be similar to your mother, in the sense of being unavailable to you. So you’re caught in a paradox.

I am always suspicious of people who openly speak about their parents negative traits. They act as if they are just perfect little angels who had horrible things done to them, as that's the explanation for all of their negative traits. But every child has the negative traits of their parents passed down to them, displayed clearly by their narcissistic attempt to gain sympathy and attention by claiming they were abused.

So what? My parents were violent, negligent, cold, hysterical and not infrequently so. It has barely affected me and the reason this behaviour ever stopped at about 18 was that I became significantly worse than them in every way. I have far more antisocial traits, purely genetic unchangeable traits, than they ever did. Thankfully I have the intelligence to not act on them so much anymore and the self awareness that I am not a perfect little angel, everything that is bad about them exists in me too. When you talk about these things openly, you are just exposing yourself as a narcissistic freak, and you are an idiot for doing so.

That's what mother-daughter relationships are like. Most are very strained and mothers make sure their daughters inherit all their neuroses. Just blame and guilt tripping on both sides.

Mothers often treat their daughters like a possession and want validation from them because they didn't receive it from their mothers as well. Fathers tend to be either violent or just distant, mothers tend to be controlling, manipulating and generally batshit insane.
I'm a man, but my mother is like that too.

my ma's got a broken spine. i've been taking care of her. she's my best friend. taught me how to read. if not for her i probably never would have learned. i owe her everything, she's a bit of a lunatic though, and i have something of the fledgling who never escaped the nest in me, but we are who we are. she's in a lot of pain, but i'm doing my best to help her manage. love your mothers, mom-bros. she's the only one you get.

Yeah like the other anon said if you’re actually getting the girls then you’re not “bad” with them, it seems like you’re just hung up on something. It’s not even that you leave the girls because that happens anyway, but the fact that you find something off putting about it. Maybe talk to someone more qualified than 4chan goons about it. But it would probably help to make a conscious effort into acknowledging that the girl’s job is not to fulfill that void for you. You can’t have your childhood back, and she can’t fix the fact that you feel sad about your mom. But you can find a different kind of happiness now that you’re a big boy. Basically treat ‘em like women not replacements for an imaginary maternal figure.

All mothers are women, and women are by definition bad at everything they do, including parents. There's no need to write books about them being bad at it since that's just the status quo.

I didn't really "get" it but The Piano Teacher has a lot of what you're looking for, the relationship between mother and daughter is featured heavily and of course it plays into the dynamics of the romantic relationship. Or at least I assume it does, like I said I'm not entirely sure what the author was getting at overall. But it definitely fits the bill regardless.

i don't think that's so bad. i'm really unsentimental with my parents as well. probably it has some effect but i think it also guides you away from a lot of stupid behaviour
