Hi kristy..im sorry for the troubles you are having right here at the holidays and i wish i had something inspirational to tell you..other then hang in there and pray, and do what feels right. im so sorry...
i know how the bribe thing works, my parents did the same thing to me and my husband, who was just a boyfriend then...when we were dating a few years ago. we had been living together and for a reason im not going in to we had to move out and i needed my own place, i just couldnt move back home. (no because i have parents or anything my parents have always been there) but pride. so when my mom called me and said that she found me an apt she would pay all the set up fees and get me in there if i left my boyfriend (now husbad) of course i blew up!! and after talking a whole lot to my mom (and i told jay about the bribe too) she came to the conclusion i wouldnt leave him...it wasnt that he was mean or a bad boyfriend but my parents didnt know him a lot. he did not grow up surrounded by a loving family at all..he has 4 brothers and sisters but none of them speak..and not because of him he has tried and they all use him same goes for his parents who are abusive acholics..so the only thing my parents knew was that he had a rough past and that we broke up a lot..and that made me sad so they wanted it ended!! pronoto but i did not give in, my mom did start me in the apt but i got a second job and i still stuck by jay our first 2 years were rocky but we all smoothed out and my mom nows says if me and jay ever divorced she keeping him..lol..
all i can say is everything supposedly happens for a reason and all smooths out in the end..which i know is not an answer...good luck let me know if you need to talk..(i have free long distance on my cell, if you need to talk girl) take care!!! |
