Thanks LG.. what a releif it is to me to know there are other people that do exactly the same things and think the way i do about this. i have always had the needing a mother problem for as far back as i can remember, too. i would never know when a woman would become like a mother figure to me. sometimes it ended up being someone who i never would have thought would have affected me that way. it just kinda of happened. for me, like you it was teachers, my friends parents maybe, the doctor, and yes, celebrities. i dont know about you but i think one way i used to cope with how neglected i was as a child was to engage (in my mind) in these well thought out fantasy scenarios with my 'mother at the moment' person. it'd probably be kind of funny to share who they were, i mean like if it was a celebrity. For example, for a while mine was Jane Fonda. ha, ha. and to you, you're probably like "Eww! She wouldn't be mine!" and i couldn't even tell you why! lol. i am not kidding when i say i could 'escape' for a couple hours doing that. pretty scary, huh? and my parents neither knew this was going on, nor did they care. Thanks for your support. - Sharon
