Girlfriend issues.

Post Reply New Topic

I've had a girlfriend, Joanie Watkins, for the past couple of months. We love each other very much, and attend vocational rehabilitation together. Hopefully, I'll attend her college soon. But here's the thing: Joanie has serious baggage. As a little girl, she witnessed her mother get killed, got raped by her father (who did time and is probably on the sex offender registry, yet still has visitaton rights), and is probably still in that abusive foster home. She's pregnant now, thanks to her old man. She said that if things go downhill, I'd be the first person that she goes to.

My family doesn't want me to have anything to do with her, period. Why, I have no f*****g clue. I have been so pissed for the past few hours, ever since Joanie called my grandmother's number and nosy old grandma stuck her nose in my f*****g business. Now, I'll have to go out with some f*****g whore my scumbag parents set me up with. They can kiss my ass, the f*****s.

I'm sorry, but I am still really pissed off.

Is the issue with your family then?

Also, has she considered getting an abortion? Probably the only situation i'd fully advocate it in.

If you've got something you want to preserve with this girl. You should probably go after it. It sounds like your family is full of control freaks and they're dangling their money or whatever in front of you to get you to do what they want.

I got stuck in a dance like that with my abusive family. In exchange for allowing my family to trash my dreams so that they could get my support (and 10 years of my income and my car.) When all was said and done they gave me nothing in return and now my life is in shambles.

No one is gonna help you with situation. It sounds cruel to say, but it's the sad truth of the matter. If you want to help this girl and be with this girl. You're gonna have to make a choice. Her or them. But also keep one thing in mind. What do YOU want? You personally, what do you want? Consider that fully before you decide.

I had the same problem with my parents with my new girlfriend of six months. My parents did want me to be in a relationship with my girlfriend because she is older then me and I though as well as my girl friend thought it was BS. What I did in responce to that I just told them I was going to go out with her anyway and their opinion wasn't going to influence my decision. They got off my back and eventually the found out for them selfs that my girlfriend is amazing and that she does make me happy in many ways and now admire her. Sometimes time heals it self. If you are truely happy, they will eventually see that and that will eventually make them happy.
