I need help to try to understand what the hell is going on with this. My 80 yo mother who is taking care of my disabled step brother had so much on her plate she wasn't doing well. I put her through so much worry ect as a result of my drug use I felt I owed it to her to help her out. So my girlfriend (who was in full agreement to do so) and I put our life as we knew it on hold to move into her home, which is big and there's plenty of room, to help her out. My mom is a passive, sweet woman who has gone great lengths to respect the dynamics of my relationship with my girlfriend and is very careful to not "mother" me in any way and to not interfere with the relationship between us in any way. Yet my girlfriend seems to have some type of resentment towards my mother for no apparent reason. She unnecessary harsh and somewhat condensending to her. I never saw this type of behavior from her before and don't understand why she would act this way towards such a kind and sweet woman. If my mom was a bitch I'd say so but anyone that's ever met her loves her. I can no longer watch her terrorize on my mom. Yeah we could just move out but that would limit the help she needs and it doesn't address this ugly behavior I've recently discovered in my girlfriend. Can any shed some light on what is going on here. Any help with understanding this would be appreciated. Especially a female perspective. THANK IN ADVANCE.
