Sherry\u2019s 24-year-old son moved in with his girlfriend last year, and since then, their once-close relationship has grown distant. Despite living only 10 minutes away, he hasn\u2019t visited her, and he rarely answers her calls or texts. Sherry still sends him money to help with groceries, hoping to stay connected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Feeling lonely, Sherry recently called him repeatedly, leaving messages to check in. When he finally answered, instead of the warm conversation she hoped for, he snapped: \u201cEither you stop calling me every day, or I\u2019ll block you for good.\u201d His words left her hurt and confused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sherry now wonders if she\u2019s being overbearing by reaching out too much or if his girlfriend is influencing him to pull away. She feels torn between respecting his boundaries and fighting to keep their bond alive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Advice from others suggests she step back, stop calling repeatedly, and even reconsider sending him money. By giving him space, she may help rebuild their relationship while also protecting her own emotional well-being.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
