How to deal with a tiger mom giving the silent treatment?
Hi everyone, I'm asking for advice about how to deal with my Tiger mom who has been giving me the silent treatment for months.
CONTEXT: 33yo male in the medical field. Thought I achieved the dream my parents wanted for me. Started dating my current partner, who is more queer presenting, which they very much do not like. Also learned throughout my life to not share deep things with my parents as they always used these opportunities to criticize so they don't know much about my personal life anymore.
THE ISSUE NOW: Trying to reconnect with my parents but my mom refuses to answer any of my calls or texts. I'm going to see them this Memorial Day weekend but am very nervous about dealing with more cold shoulders without exploding in frustration.
How do you all deal with parents who refuse to apologize and always think the way they behave is correct? I want to still have some relationship with them but its extremely hard when they demonstrate minimal ability to grow.
