Kylbdnr- I feel like crying 🙁 thank u for making me realize how lucky I am that my parent know about me, like i never thanked Hashem for that! I’m sorry- am I just making u feel worse? I really hope u can still have a good relationship with ur parents even without the mushy stuff, and u know ur probably lucky in other ways , like u probably get into less arguments if u talk to them less 🙂
Workinonit- I also sometimes have this prob , but it IS much easier in writing , so maybe do what a lot of posters suggested and write little cards , or keep saying thank u and maybe it’ll get easier, – this is what I do;)
