Mother I think is confused and bi-polar
My mother and I seem to argue a couple times a week. I love her dearly but her mannerisms, attitude, personality, stubborness clashes with me. She dramatizes situations and turns my brothers and father to make it seem like I'm the bad guy. She tells me I need to grow up, mature, and stop being a kid, and seek professional help.
My whole life she has always had a negative attitude on things. When I was in college she didn't think I attended classes and thought I dropped out. I faxed her my transcripts on my own accord to show her I was a straight A student who never studied. She often tells me that I need to be careful at work despite getting positive feedback and awards through my mgmt. I'm a educated, professional who is cool, fun, and really nice but percieved differently by my mother. I could be the president of a company and still my mother will say I need to mature in life. I think no matter what we will never have a loving relationship. Anyone else have a simliar relationship or have good thoughts on this?

Yes... just tell her to quit worrying and that you can lead your own life.... no, seriously, tell her that. She's going to have to deal.

She might be jealous of you. If her life is any less then yours she may be trying to put you down so that you can stoop to her level. But don't. It'd be ideal to have a good relationship with your mom... But if she's being that difficult just put her on the back burner. Lemme know how it goes.
