 You just had a fight with your mother so emotions are running high, allow yourself to calm down. Then talk to her and tell her how you are feeling, but also ask her how she is feeling.
You say she wears sexy clothes but did not used to. Well I guess you her children have grown up now and she wants to live her life and feel good about herself, there is nothing wrong with that. So maybe instead of judging your mother, you can tell her when you think she looks nice.
Okay so you say that's not the problem her personality is changing. You think she is at menopause stage, so this is probably more than likely why your mother is changing, her body is changing and her hormones are all over the place. This could also be a factor in why your parents split up as the menopause can be hard on the whole family. But she is your mother, and she does love you, and she will get back to herself in time. I know it is hard but you just need to be an adult and be there for her.
She will be hurtful to you as you are being hurtful to her, you cannot tell her you hate who she is or what she does, but do tell her what you do like and what she does that is nice, try be more positive to your mum, she is going through a hard time.
You say you are seeing a younger guy, how much younger? You blame your mother for this, but you are an adult and your mothers behavior does not mean you have to go behind her back. Why not sit down and tell your mother you are seeing someone? You are an adult.
I think you need to be honest with your mum, tell her you plan to go with your sister, tell her you need a break and that you hope she will be happier when you are back.
