My prediction is that closet mom will rise to being one of the most toxic patents to ever be on 90DF. She will demonstrate extreme passive aggression, co-dependence, and will stop at no cost to maintain her hoard and control over her child. It’ll be a slow burn but eventually her true colors will show.
The “te amo” didn’t hit right. She had plenty of time to say something other than, “I love you” in Spanish. She’s not going anywhere. It was never a temporary situation for her.
