another blow

Posted on 08/12/09, 02:12 pm

I have been in a relationship for the past 4 months. He cared for me, and for the first time I knew that I was a priority. Unfortunately, for me, my wonderful boyfriend proved his immaturity and irresponsibility by robbing a member of my family. He lied to me for days about what happened and brought a loaded gun to my house around my 5 and 8 year old sisters. I realized that being with him would not create a healthy or even safe enviroment, and had no choice but to leave him. He was the only decent thing in my life. Lately, my life has been blow after blow, making every passing moment a constant struggle. Any ideas???

  I'm going to be blunt... I have no intention to offend... I hope that this message is received as . If it is not I apologize in advance.
  
  You in the same paragraph make a lying dangerous thief a positive saintly thing that you have lost... That is not okay. You dumped an idiot child that put you in harm's way. Lamenting that as a loss is wrong... STOP.
  
  You did good, kid. You did a good thing. Own it with pride!!!
  
  If he was a good guy that put you first, and you mattered one damn bit, he would have never acted in any of those ways. Don't create a delusion of loss. Own the pride of standing up for the safety of you, and those you love,
  
  
  I am myself alone... Guess what? People can make it that way... Defining yourself in the eyes of the one your involved with is the delusion of a child. Sure. I like to be in a relationship, but not at the cost of anything that I value.
  
  Again. You did good, kid.
