Is it wrong that I feel like I scored because I made m Mom cry?
Just got an emial from my Mom:
Beautiful flowers! And thank you for the card. It made me cry. (in a good way)*
Somevody please tell me they feel the same way when they get the same reaction out of their Mother. I can’t be alone in this!
I used get the same feeling whenever this happens with my Sis, GFs or my ex-wife.
Crying seems to be a manifestation of deeply felt emotions. If they’re positive emotions - like seeing your kid be born, or getting a mother’s day card with a nice expression of love in it - then that’s a good thing, innit? If feeling like you “scored” for having induced such a deeply positive state in someone you love is just a sense of accomplishment, I don’t see anything wrong with that.
Congratulations on making your mother cry (in a good way) on Mother’s Day. Score!
