I made a locked post about how whenever I try to limit conversations with my mother, she calls me controlling. What she doesn't notice is the 90% of conversations that I have with her and don't attempt to limit, even though I would rather not be having them either. But there is no nice way to point out "I don't enjoy talking to you in general" or "spending time with you is stressful", so I guess that I can live with her thinking that 1)I am controlling, and 2)I enjoy the time we spend together.
