'support' the older tradition!!
Posted Saturday July 12 2008, 1:51 pm
So im asian and my parents are quite old fashioned, i have an older brother and i feel that my parents just take his side and believe whatever he says just because he is older than me, we have a 7 year age gap! he is SO rude and he is dating a girl from a different race, which is SO bad as you know. We are hindus. And so, now i don't know what to do. Sometimes, when my brother and i fight, he goes and tells my parents before i do about it, and so they hear HIS story first, and so when I try and tell my story, they either don't listen or, they just have a way to change it! and make it like it's my fault! sometimes i just REALLY hate my life, because it just is SO unfair! i HATE it!! it makes me cry SO frequently! and i am SO hurt by this! do...

Weird Uncle = Gross me out
Posted Thursday July 10 2008, 12:31 pm
I have this uncle, who had a divorce. Then he met this girl. He is 63. This girl is 23. I have no problem with age differences. But this has gone to far. That is somewhat 40 years. That is nasty. I understand 20, or less, but 40, come on. He defentily does not look 60. He broke up with her for a 22 year. Myt uncle disguests me. My whole familly has no problem. I want him to be happy, but that happy, is to me just plain wrong. He also is verrrrrrrrry rich. These girls seem to like his money.He doesn't notice or get hurt. I am tired of seeing a young woman, that is only 2,3, or 4 years older then my sister who's 20. They could be my isters. That so nasty. I need peoples opinion on young + old = love/like relationaships.

mother and sister
Posted Tuesday July 8 2008, 10:37 am
hello.
sorry that its long btw.
well my mom and my sister are having financial problems. my sister is 19 (20 in a month) and carries on leeching off my mom. she relies on her for money, even though she had a job. she was in £1000 debt, so my mom put it into her bank accound. if she needs money, she goes to my mom.
ive explained to my mother that putting money in her account is only a permanent solution to a temporary problem, and she shouldnt do it. she is an adult and needs to learn for herself. my mother still carries on.
they argue a lot whenever my sister asks for money, because my mom is finding it hard to get the money to give it to her. my mom has to pay the rent on the house,a s w...

Family secrets
Posted Monday July 7 2008, 7:05 pm
My family has molested me, beaten me, vandalised my property and homes, told lies to my bosses and co-workers, had me fired numerous times. And I'm the bad family member.
I had blocked out most of my life and has taken me 20 years to remember. During this time, I have had no control on what I remembered and when, it just kinda happens.
My question is this: Do I owe it to the rest of my family to shut up about all the crap they did and still do to me? Or should I seek legal remedy? Prosecute them for all of it? They have brainwashed my children as well.
In a way I feel like a traitor, but they are the ones who betrayed me. The "adults" of the family have lied about things since I ...

My mom doesn't understand
Posted Monday July 7 2008, 3:42 am
I'm 16 years old and I've been dating this guy for a little bit over a month already. I really like him. You can say that I love him, but my mom doesn't want me to be with him at all. She doesn't want me to be close to him. She's threating me saying that she's going to block the internet and the phone. And also that in school she is going to get a restraining order and ask that we don't have any classes together. He's a year younger than me. Which worried me at first, but now I don't even think about it. And my mom got mad and started yelling at me that he's too young for me. She doesn't like him at all. She also hates the fact that we're from Dominican Republic and he's Colombian. He hasn't done anything wrong to her. The only thing that h...

In-law obligations
Posted Monday July 7 2008, 1:46 am
My husband and I purchased a cabin in the mountains four years ago. Along with that, we purchased two ATVs (four-wheelers) to ride the thousands of acres of mountain trails adjacent to our cabin property.
We love to have our children and grandchildren visit and have an open door policy where they're concerned.
Recently, my married daughter asked me, in front of her husband, if we would be willing to let them use the cabin for use with her husband's family. We told her we would have to think about it. We discussed it briefly with them and never gave them an answer.
My husband and I had already talked about this situation because we knew it would come up. I had expressed to my daughter shortly ...

Hopeless Love
Posted Sunday July 6 2008, 7:55 pm
Hey,
I've been on and off with this guy since last year. I really like him, like to the point where I honestly cannot think of being with anyone besides him... at least not for awhile. We flirt a lot and I know we definetly have something, but everytime we get closer and it seems like were about to "go out" or get serious he freaks out. He backs away, its like he's afraid or something- idk what to do. I want to be with him so badly, but at the same time I wonder if he's afraid of relationships in general... or is it me he's afraid of?
