I'm hurt and sad. My mother, the person I trusted most lied to me and that has hurt me deeply. I never thought that the woman who gave birth to me and raised me would do anything to harm my happiness.
I discovered that my mother didn't want me to have a happy relationship. She interfered with my relationships, causing partners to leave. She spread lies about me to potential partners, making it hard for me to find someone special. But that wasn't all - she even consulted a sangoma (traditional healer) to harm my relationships. I was shocked and heartbroken when I found out.
But the most painful discovery was that she got me a "spiritual wife" without my knowledge or consent. I couldn't believe that my own mother would do something so manipulative and controlling. It felt like she wanted to own me, body and soul.
Her actions showed me that she didn't want me to be happy or independent. She wanted me to stay single and keep working for her and my siblings. It felt like I was a slave, not a son.
I feel confused, angry, and sad. I question my own sanity and self-worth. How could my mother do this to me? Didn't she love me? Didn't she want me to be happy?
I talked to friends, family, and a therapist. It's hard, but I need to heal. I need to break free from my mother's control and start living my own life.
I'm learning to take care of myself, set boundaries, and trust myself. Forgiveness will take time, but I know it's necessary for my healing.
If you're going through something similar, know that you're not alone. Your feelings are valid, and you deserve help. Don't be afraid to seek support.
