I have been speaking to the counsellor person at work. She's meant for students, but she offered to help me out as well. Adam and I had a chat last night about things and we're on good terms. He's accepted the fact and we both agree it's probably for the better right now. It was actually one of...

That's what I figured. I was with Adam for 4 years and I bent over backwards to make his parents like me. I don't think I ever did anything to make them NOT like me, but this entire wedding debacle really brought out true colors. I spoke to my parents, who love Adam like their own and didn't...

Adam and I decided last night to end the relationship. He tried to bully me into apologizing to his parents again to "smooth things out" and I refused because I didn't do anything wrong. Even though his parents were the ones slinging insults, he figured I should suck it up and apologize. When I...

Re: pregnancy: If I'm pregnant, a doctor and a bunch of lab techs must have missed it, heh, and it's meant to be. All my blood work came back 100% normal, aside from a bladder infection I didn't know I had. Re: Loving Adam: I know I LOVE him, but I don't know if I'm IN LOVE with him... isn't...

I don't go to bars, clubs, etc. I've found that I'm okay in certain settings, like restaurants, because people aren't focused solely on me. In this one instance, I went to a car meet with a total of 15 people showing off their import cars. Not a large crowd.

Nancy, his parents have apologized to him but still refuse to speak to me. They literally want nothing to do with me until I "stop being selfish", put myself on Valium and get married to their son. They're actually more concerned with saving face than anything else. I've been doing a fair...

Oh, I definitely understand what you're saying and I'm happy you were blunt with me... but wouldn't it be more conducive on his part to TELL me what's going on with him instead of pretending everything is fine? I told him what was going on with me, and he swore to me he understood and was...

To be quite honest, Nancy... he's the one cracking now. I actually feel pretty good after what went down on the weekend. No stress, happy... just the residual effects of not eating. I've been eating all freaking day, haha. I'm off to the doctor in a few hours, just to check things out... but I...

Oh, I know. I just don't think I like this side of him. I went out last night with some friends, and he called/texted every hour to see where I was or check up on me. I don't like when people are clingy and it really feels like he doesn't trust me. I've never given him a reason to NOT trust me...

I probably won’t pack his bag, but I want to see what his parents say about me when I’m not around. I already told him that if his parents can’t learn to respect me, I don’t want to marry into the family and carry that name. Family is about mutual love and respect, and if I can’t have the love...

Thanks! I feel pretty good about what I did, and I figure it's a big step in the right direction. A bunch of our friends have been very supportive of this and have offered up any help we need. One girl who wasn't even the wedding party offered to help us call up people to let them know not to...

Oh, he knows exactly how I feel about it. I haven't been shy about telling him exactly what his parents are doing, even if he denies it or says that's not happening. He's not stupid, and I'm sure he can use the gift of reason. haha. If I can see it, and other people can see it... I'm sure he can...

That's what I figured too. I'm just going to stay quiet and let him make his own decisions. If he chooses to bend to them, and make me go away for the day, I'll take that as a hint and that will be that. It's in his court now, to prove that I'm a priority in his life. If he wants to allow his...

I think he's adopted. Heh. (Just kidding, he's not... but that's my theory)

I need to show his mother this thread so she can see I'm not crazy. She seriously thinks I'm over-reacting and what she's doing is a normal mother thing. It's freaking insane, haha.

LOL, oh gosh. If I’m a drug dealing crack whore, that’s news to me! Haha. It’s totally about the respect thing. I’ve told Adam time and time again that his parents do not respect me. People do not belittle, interrupt, insult, guilt trip and blackmail people that they respect. They listen to...

Laurie, I definitely understand what you’re saying about family and I hope it didn’t come across in any way that I was trying to make him choose. I’ve tried to get along with his parents and until recently, they swore until they were blue in the face that they loved me. Last night, they told my...

Hey Tunes, I completely agree with you, but for the sake of my own conscience, I want to pay her for the dress. I plan to do the same for the other girls, if they don't plan to sell the dress. That's exactly what I'm doing with this girl's dress... I'll give her the amount shown on the receipt...

LOL! The girl that wants to be reimbursed for the dress just upped the price when I told her I want the dress in exchange for the cheque. Thanks, Tabitha. I feel much less stressed... even though his family is making it an absolute nightmare. They are not the least bit understanding about this...

So far, so good. My mom offered to talk to his mom, just to help them understand what social anxiety is and that prescription drugs aren't always the answer. I am going to the doctor this week just to get a blood test and see if something is out of whack, and try vitamin supplements or...
