Just typed a lot and it got deleted...
Bad day again. Went with his family and after he had already told me twice he would stay with me while they did their thing because I have a 3 year old who is too young, he quickly decided to leave me behind by myself. I felt like a third wheel, like you do in high school. I hate that feeling.
Then picture time comes and who is the one taking the pictures? Yup, you guessed it me. "Let me take a pic with him, let me. Can you take the pic of our group for us?"
He and I have been together 2 years. I should be in a photo every now and than. Then his mom says she wants a pic of just me and him. How quickly she forgot she wanted that pic.
I don't think his family likes me. I didn't have money growing up and you can tell that they know that. I'm not trashy, not at all. But I'm not a money hungry greedy person. I'm not always talking about the things I have, the things I could have gotten but got something better instead... Don't get me wrong... His family is very very nice. But I know they wish he was with someone else...
When he and I met 2 years ago he would go on and on about his issues with his family. How they were so different and did such a terrible job raising him. Once he and I started dating and he learned about my childhood, he admits now he sees why they were the way they were with him. He used to do hard drugs, he has been to rehab. He hated his parents. Now he's off the drugs, hasn't touched them since we met, and is over at their house with them now. He likes going over there and they have a good relationship now. I've been trying to get him to realize his parents aren't as bad as he had thought before, and he sees that now. But they still don't seem to like me.
If my daughter were in as rough a shape as he was and she met someone who helped turn him around, I would LOVE that person. When I met my boyfriend, he drank EVERY night. And I mean EVERY night and he got WASTED. And when that would happen he would get mad and hit things and go on about his hatred for his family. He doesn't drink now and he's back in school. He's got a full time job...
He's a wonderful man, but they don't seem to see it. They don't seem to see how good we are for eachother... ugh... Bad day...
