Most of my life, my Mom made it a point to let me know how much she hated me and how she couldn't wait until I moved out. When I got a plane ticket to California from my family who was willing to take me in, she basically counted the days.
When I went back home last year, my Mom cried when she hugged me. She was extremely happy for me to be there and treated me very well. Since I have moved away, I get texts and Facebook posts from her talking about how much she misses me.
I don't get it, how could my moving out change her feelings for me, is it normal?

She might have just pour the tough love on a little too thick for you to handle.
My mom, I'm convinced, was nuts, she shit on me a lot, but it was all in attempt to make me a better person, to teach me to care for myself because no one else would.
Sadly she passed away about a year and a half ago and only now do I see the reason she did the things she did.
