Okay me and my ex boyfriend has been on and off for about 6 months. He is stingy and cheap i think alot has to do with the fact that he gives his mom money every month and he pretty much set up a damn bank account for her to get money out of his check.He doesn’t do any real stuff for me he does want to take me out from time to time but he knows i don’t like going no where so i think thats his way of trying to pretend that he wants to knowing that i don;t want to go anyway. Im not working right now and hes in the airforce. Its like he wants me to have a job so freaking bad, thats all he talks about. He doesn’t say baby come stay with me until you get on your feet. Its mostly oh you need a job. I live in northern california and he stays in las vegas, nv and both states have messed up economies and i have been trying extremely hard. But it seems like he wants to deal with someone with a job.My mother is getting in my *** about what he does for me besides screw me and i cant really say what he does cause its nothing there. She says if a man truly loves you hell show it not just screw you. Its humiliating! I hate it! I lost 50 dollars on the crap table because he told me he wanted me to play with him and he borrowed 20 dollars from me. So when he won 700 on the crap table i asked him could i have my 70 dollars back. He replied and said no at first then he got upset and said take your money and get out. Then he came back and started lying about how he only owed me 40 or sum crap and that’s what he gave me 40 dollars. And he started bragging about how he feed me the whole time for two weeks and he don’t owe me nothing. Even though i cooked all the damn meals that i ate.We get along cool but its just this stingy shyt he got goin on! WTF! HELPPPPPPPPPPP

on my mom’s side of the family, i am the youngest..all of my cousins are married and have their own kids..the depressing thing is i never had the chance to attend any of their marriages..my parents have been divorced since 1997. after since i graduated from high school, all i year from my mom when i have vacation is "go to your dad’s..no one cares about you..that is all i hear..when my dad wants me to go visit, my mom forces me to go, but when my family in india wants me to visit, i cant go..it was depressing because i got my licence in july 2007 then in june 2008, my cousin from india came to visit me for a week with his wife and 2 sons since i went to visit him in new york when he came by himself and didnt get time to visit me then in july 2008 my aunt and uncle came to visit me for a month. i am over the age of 28 and this is how my mom treats me. my mom’s brother-in-law told her not to force me to visit my dad if i didnt want to go and my mom’s reply was "i dont force her" then suddenly for new years, she forced me to fly to las vegas to spend time with my dad for three days and i had a miserable time. none of my family members or friends want to talk to me because i always make up excuses i am busy when i am really not. i am busy going to visit my dad and then suddenly they stop talking to me and my mom doesnt realize that. the economy is bad and my mom is after me to look for a part time job but cant find one. no one is hiring and a lot of places are going out of business and plus as a college stduent, i am facing budget cuts. the way my life is really making me lose focus on my driving, my career, and so forth. i dont know what to do. i need a life of my own. my dad’s friend’s son is getting married and i dont want to go. i will be in school and probably i will have exams and midterms to study for and my dad’s friend and my dad are forcing me to go. so is my mom. someone please tell me what to do. i am very much fed-up. my dad taught me that he had a party and his friend came and now that their son is getting married, i have to go. my mom threw me a grad party after i finished high school. two of my mom’s friends came from sd. then they had a party and my mom didnt let me go then my mom threw me a birthday party and they didnt come. my mom doesnt teach me any family or common sense values. what should i do? all i hear is "go to your dad’s and no one cares about you.
i’m losing focus concentrating on becoming a medical assistant..cant do that by the way my life is..no one will understand what i am going through

Well, i’m 19 right? YES, 19!!!! And my parents still treat me either like a child or a maid… It’s like i have NO FREEDOM AT ALL living in this house. I’ve been a good person… good grades, no drugs, no drinking, partying, etc… but my parents are like sum kind of weird nazis!!! I would want to move out but my mom would do ANYTHING in her power to make my life more miserable like cut off one of the loans she’s helpin me pay for school (which’s EXPENSIVE as in -90,000 tuition – Art Institute of Las Vegas) So basically, it’d b hard trying to find out how to pay for that O_O I cant get a job w/the economy goin to crap, and idk how to drive since my parents supposedly "never" have the time to teach me. Added to that, i have a boyfriend that i hardly ever get to see. Basically, i only see him once a week… and my mom thinks its TOO MUCH!!! 8| Then comes the fact that I STILL have to do so many chores, so its ridiculous when i get yelled at for not being able to do all of them, even though i have NUMEROUS amounts of hw since…DUH, im in college. When it comes to religion, they force it on me, and freak out if i dont want to follow wut they follow… Aren’t I old enough to choose what i want to believe!?! There are so many other things to talk about, but i don’t want to bore u (lol) and im seriously not exaggerating any of this at all. But yeah, all this BS is really getting to me. I just dont know what to do anymore and its been really getting to me lately. Any tips???
When it comes to that tuition, I’M the one actually paying for it w/2 loans and 2 scholarships… my mom’s only paying for one loan, which probably only covers my books and supply kit >XS
There were many times i’ve tried talking to them, but they’re SO conservative and only stick to what they believe… so it’s hard to convince them on anything =(

In Decmember of 2008, I started working with a Chiropractor in Tustin, Ca as a Front Office Medical Assistant intern..I found this doctor on my own and through the white pages..Since the economy is in bad shape, not a lot of places are hiring nor are a lot of medical doctors are taking interns..I worked with him for a month then i quit to go back to school full time..since i am on summer holidays, i called this doctor and he said i can only work as an intern..he will not pay me..I told him i can start working On july 10..On july 26, I’m going to europe for two weeks..most of my friends say not to work until i come back because in today’s economy it is hard to find jobs, but my family is telling me to work for two weeks then ask for two weeks off..does it make sense..

my personal life is really down right now..some of my classes at my college are being cut..my mom’s job laid off 12 out of 18 employees at her company..my mom’s brother is visiting and we went to las vegas, and san francisco..my mom already took two days off..please send me ur opinion..what is the best thing to do..i told the doctor i can start on july 10 but i didnt mention about going to europe for two weeks..i dont even know if i should go to collge this semester or not..my life is so stressful right now..do you think if i asked the doctor will let me work for two weeks then let me have two weeks off..when should i tell the dcotor about my trip to europe..my mom’s brother persuaded her to cancel and my mom goes how can she? she already bought the tickets

so my family has always been dysfunctional but as sibling we hav always stuck together. I’m the oldest of two younger brothers, and we grew up pretty close but the youngest was always closer to me. my mom wasn’t in the picture and i was like their mother. so on mothers day my younger brother jorge was making me mothers day cards. well…..now he’s seventeen and we’re all grown up. so he was having trouble at home with my dad he decided to runaway to my family we have in san Francisco( we live in Las vegas). so he was there for about a year and and i would stay in contact with him. So when i moved out with my boyfriend we have an extra room that we wanted to rent out and thought it would be a good idea to help my brother by having him move in with us and just pay 0 worth of rent. He has him own entrance with him own bathroom and his room is right next to the kitchen. We live in a two story condo so the downstairs is pretty much all his. Well the deal was if he finished his high school in San Francisco was going to drive out to pick him up and after that he would have a month to get a job and start paying rent. His rent includes utilities food, shelter etc keep in mind for just 0 a month. Well he called me one day all of a sudden and said he didn’t want to be in San fran. any more and he wanted to get picked up in Los Angeles. so i told him we would be there by that weekend . My boyfriend and I took off after him on a shorts notice, brought him with us and explained the rules to him again. He doesn’t turn 18 until June so he is still a minor. Well the very next day he was here my ipod went missing. It never crossed my mind that it could be jorge, i thought i may have dropped it somewhere and i was really bummed out. So after the second day he said he was going out with my other brother and would be back later that night. He didn’t come back until a week later. I asked him if hes even looked for work and he replied, " well its my first week home and i just wanted to hang out a bit with my friends." I was a bit disappointed but said okay by monday I want you to start looking for a job. well yesterday he was home all and the minute his friend called he left. This morning I asked him if he was going to look for work and replied, " well its dad’s day off today and i wouldn’t want to run into him on the street or something." but then his friend called again and he showered and took off… well wtf. Then to make matters worse my brother called me and said are you alone? I was like yeah whats up? he starts to tell me, " well the other night I went out with jorge we went to a party and I got pretty drunk and passed out on my friends couch, and I had my ipod on me." "the next day i woke up and my ipod was missing, it was in my pocket the whole time and i wasn’t so drunk that i don’t remember what happened that night and my friend lori that lives there also had her ipod missing and all of a sudden jorge had money." he asked he," have you been giving jorge money?" I said no not at all. Well the day that my ipod went missing I had only been to my mother in laws house and then i was home all day i looked for it every where but it still hasn’t came out any where. My stuff have never gone missing. So now that i think of it Jorge was the only other person that was there when my ipod went missing too besides my boyfriend but he bought me the ipod. And my other brother said that when he passed out on his friends couch only Jorge and lori where there. So what should I do? He hasn’t made an effort to get a job and all of a sudden things are beginning to go missing in my house? should i kick him out? but if i kick him out where will he go after all he is only 17. please give me advise on what you think I should handle this situation.

im 17, going to be a senior. since coming back from mexico in january, i cant seem to find a job. luckily, my sister is a supervisor at bouchon bakery in las vegas. she got me a job which im happy about but before i got the job my mother and i made plans on going back to mexico to visit my friends, my grandmother, and the rest of the family the summer. my mom doesnt think i should go to las vegas. she thinks i should go to mexico with her come back and look for a job. i have studied the economy and i think im better off getting experience to make it easier to find a job when the summer ends. i would love to go to mexico with my mom but sometimes the things you want in life differ from what you need to do.should i just work for 2 months then go to mexico with my mom ? any advice will be greatly appreciated

Life really sucks for me right now! I feel as if I’m the only person who has to deal with these problems!

Ok I’ll start from the beginning: My dad used to work at home, but he and my mom kept fighting, and eventually, we figured out the problem. They fight out of boredom, so my dad wanted to get a new job. He wanted to work outside of the house. But since the economy is messed up, he had to get all the way in las vegas, which is FAR from where we live. I only get to see him on some weekends, it’s like my parents are divorced. Ok that problem sort of got solved. It sucks now, cuz he’s soooo far away from us. I’m on a visit to see him right now, but here are some problems. He has no cable, my mom and I are clueless about this city, and we are bored! My mom really wants to buy some fruits, cuz my dad is sleeping, so we can’t. She doesn’t know where to drive. So she talked to me. I come from india, and she said that we have a lot of problems in our current life. We live in CA right now, but she stated many problems that we faced:

1. My greencard has been delayed for over 2 years now, so I can’t travel anywhere (except india)
2. My brother can’t transfer to a good college, and he can’t get a job
3. Already mentioned my dad lives far away
4. My parents keep fighting
5. I don’t know my own language (I’m embarrassed), so It’ll be tough going back to india
6. My grandparents are all alone in india, struggling to survive.

My mom says the best solution is to this is to move back to india. I don’t have a problem with it, but it’s a lot of change, and…that sucks.

I just wish we didn’t have to do this! Why can’t I be happy like everyone else? Do I deserve this? Is this my fate? Someone please help me!!!!!!!
Alright, I was born in India, okay. I know what it’s like there, and I love it there, so snot nosed kid, I’m going to have to disagree with you. I love that country, but I love america too! Besides, I hate it here in vegas. I’m only thirteen years old, and the only thing that appeals to me are the bright lights!

Also, my dad doesn’t work two jobs, and he does not work at the gas station
Also, my grandparents who I previously mentioned are on my dad’s side of the family, my mom just wants to stay with them, becuz she thinks that’s the best solution to make everyone happy
I’m hindu, BTW…..so I can’t really go for the prayers… besides, I’ve asked god a billion times to help me out, and he hasn’t done a thing for me. I’m starting to lose my faith, but I’m giving him one last chance.

My uncle’s family has a Timeshare. How does Timeshare work? Can you stay at any Timeshare condo? We went to Disneyland last July and was going to meet up with my uncle’s family there. However, he said there isn’t a Timeshare condo near Disneyland or in Anaheim. Is this true? Because when my uncle’s family goes to Disney World in Orlando, they have a Timeshare condo place there. So they were going to stay at a hotel, but my mom told him to cancel their trip since it would cost them more. Instead we went to Disneyland and they went to a Las Vegas casino, in which there is a Timeshare. My mom told me that he said there isn’t a Timeshare in California, only in some states.

Ok. I found out im pregnant, not to long ago.(Which Im not upset about, I feel its a blessing, women would give anything to bring life into the world).

but the problem is.
I live in Las Vegas, NV…for college…My Whole family stays in Missouri. I still plan on going to college(under grad student), this will be a little different now, because I have to get an apartment verses living on campus. I cant stop going to school, b/c 1) I have a scholarship, 2) I want to be a doctor..Anesthesiologist to be exact, and moving back home will force me to start school in January. or Late August if I make the deadline…but again, I have a scholarship to go here. I would have to take out loans to pay for school.

I KNOW I need to tell my mom, and mother-in-law that im pregnant…I KNOW that I need help b.c I have no clue what to do as far as a pregnancy..(this being my first).
If I tell them, I KNOW that they will make me stay in Missouri, and not want me to return to Vegas,which I understand, b.c all my family is Missouri…

So you do think it is best that I just want until I get my own place, then tell them..so they know that im handling this very mature or responsibility..or do I tell them now?

Thanks

and Baby Dust To all TTC!!!
xoxo
I would really like their help…but Im just afraid they may make me stay in Missouri.
Im not 18…Ill be 20…when I said "make" Im saying..YOU KNOW HOW MOTHERS CAN BE…
ill get hell from them about moving.and trying to do things on my own…and this is baby #1 for me…so I know they both will insist that I move back..
thanks "Prue1989-Baby#1 due 1 Nov 09" you are the only one who truly understood.
