My mom and I don't fight.. We do go days without talking just because she's busy though ..
Call your mom and make up with her!

Maybe a day when I was in high school. She doesn't like being ignored! She forces us kids to talk when we're mad at her. We don't argue anymore though.

we argue all the time because we both have strong personalities but we never stop talking, we just get over it and move on.

@chopsuey119: I know, I'm sad that we haven't talked! But she made me sooo mad!

We haven't been in a fight since I was in high school, and even those were just stupid, "I don't wanna do my chores" fights. We don't have anything to fight about now.

We actually got in our worst fight ever this summer. I refused to speak to her from from the end of June until after my birthday in the beginning of August, so around 6 weeks. It was awful, and she missed a big portion of my pregnancy which is even more depressing. We're okay now.

@highwire: Wow, glad you guys patched things up!

My mom & I haven't argued since high school. We've gone a couple weeks without speaking only when traveling. My grandmother on the other hand has not spoken to me in 21 months after a disagreement. Ouch! Family can really hurt when they withhold when you feel like you need them. Hope you guys are able to clear things up soon! Hugs!

@autumnlove: Me too. My dad was also involved, so I didn't speak to either of my parents during that entire period.

Yeah....several months
My mom and I have a VERY rough relationship, and when she and my dad separated a couple years ago, she decided that because I didn't cut him out of my life, I was taking his side, and decided not to talk to me for over 6 months. She even threatened not to come to my wedding (so we went to Vegas! HA!)
I haven't talked to her in a couple weeks, the drama just isn't worth it. Wish I had a more normal relationship with her!!

Couple of weeks. My mom is the silent treatment type. Has only happened a few times though, the last time was right after I got engaged and we were fighting over wedding stuff.

My mom is a psychologist so we talk it all out. I've never intentionally not talked to her.

Not long. One of us will get over it really quickly. The longest I ever went without talking to her was two weeks when I couldn't tell her I was pregnant. I think that told her I was since I wouldn't call her!!

I don't think my Mom and I have ever fought before. We usually talk, email, or text every day.
wonderful cherry / 21504 posts
We don't really fight either. We are both people pleasers anyway so tend to skirt around or avoid topics that I know would be issues. We don't talk every day anyway though, so sometimes when we are busy we can go a couple of weeks without talking.
The worst was when I moved in with DH, then my boyfriend. I was afraid of telling my parents because I knew they would disapprove, but then I was mad at them for being disapproving of my adult decision, so I didn't feel like talking to them and hiding things (even though I never gave them the chance to be normal anyway). Turns out they were fine with it anyway

My mom and I never fight....sometimes I distant myself from her because she stresses me out but she doesn't notice it because I do it so subtly...Even that is rare, because secretly I like her korkiness and I love how she is.

I'm pretty lucky in the mom department. I can't remember ever fighting with her (except over cleaning or something stupid). So I don't think I've ever purposefully not spoken to her.

Several months a few years ago, but I do believe we emailed a bit but only very straight forward short emails, no life updates or chats. We talk usually every week now & text every couple of days

Probably a little less then a week. She was upset about me being with my ex..... and she was so right!

@mrbee: were you living in the same house?
We usually move on quickly but then fight again.

Hmm, we got into an argument a couple years ago and didn't talk for like a week... I think that's the longest we've gone. We usually chat everyday (sometimes multiple times a day, she's so my BFF!) so that really sucked.

I've never not spoke to my mother for any length of time on purpose. Sometimes we got a week without talking just because of work and life and stuff.
grapefruit / 4800 posts
I don't know but not for very long. The most we usually go when not fighting is about a week so there probably was some time where I was irritated and just went that long. I don't usually stop talking to people when I'm angry at them though, ha.

We get a bit snippy sometimes, but we've never stopped talking. We're pretty close.
eggplant / 11287 posts
Maybe a couple of days? But it's not like it is a big deal because sometimes we go that long without talking anyways (we are both busy). Usually I just don't call her for a few days because I am upset about something she said. She is a pretty clingy and bossy grandma. I have a hard time standing up to her. But I love her a lot nonetheless!

We didn't talk for eight months before my wedding (almost didn't invite her) because she felt the need to dictate to me where I should live in the city and accost me like a child anytime I disagreed with her. I couldn't take it anymore and needed the space for my mental health.
We also didn't talk for a couple of months after I told her I was pregnant because her response (before hanging up the phone abruptly) was, "Oh."

We talk loudly many times but we never really fought. The only time I got really mad at her was shortly after LO was born. I tried ignoring her for a while (she was staying with us to help out) but it still boiled over quickly.
