All I want for Christmas

[East]

I think I understand where you are coming from I may not have receive 5 of one thing but I do remember when I was young and on Christmas I actually got tired of opening presents but cause my adoptive parents thought that they could buy my love with gifts even though they never wanted to adopt a son. Needless to say with the abuse along with it we are no longer a family or talk to each other. So I guess that's one reason now you all know why I'm so lonely in this world.

....I hear you...I divorced my family and did not talk to them due to abuse as well so my wish for you is to find someone who will love and respect you.....

Have you ever tried to resolve this and come to terms with it and heal yourself? The reason I say this...when you have parents like that you might attract a relationship that has similar dynamics and of course you never see it until it is much too late. I came to realize at one point whenever I had a huge immediate crush on someone after awhile I would try to figure out if it was my mom or dad...or both:eek: I got pretty good at identifying them (and avoiding them) but I sure wish someone had told me before I had to figure it out the hard way...I might have saved myself some time.
