At the age of 28 i feel very distant with my mom. My mother is a great woman. She has been there for me all my life. I am lucky to have grown up with both my parents. I dont feel the connection with my mom though. Most of the times i have this hate feel that runs through me. My mom made sure i had everything, paid for my school, provide for everything. we were never close . I cannot open up to her and tell her anything. In short we do not have a mother to daughter relationship. Perhaps because my mom is a perfectionist and i also feel that she is not understanding. I do not feel comfortable telling her anything because she will judge you in some way. She sees the worst in people. When were young she was never pleased with anything we did.

she told one of my cousins that i dont like her. Which is true, i would like to talk to someone who is understanding. Well i dont hate my mom but i hate her character. How do i build our relationship? I am not married as i went back to university after working for sometimes i had to go and study for a second degree. I still depend on her and live in the same house with her. We hardly ever talk about anything then just things in general.
I will appreciate your input
