Thread: am i growing up too fast?

Look, from my experience, when I 'abandonned' my family for my ex, it was very very lonely. He was my whole world. As time went by, we grew apart because I was his shadow. I was no longer the girl he fell in love with and he was no longer my knight in shining armor. Basically, I took on his identity in a way. I felt trapped. Kids came along. It got worse. Look, Jenny, my advice to you is that you don't do what I did. You still have your life. Get a job. Don't worry about what kind. As long as it keeps you happy and satisfied. Get yourself a car. Call up your friends for support. Make dates with them to keep up on eachothers lives. Don't lose touch with your family. Because in the event that something bad should happen, you are gonna want them there.

thank you so much for your input! i dont feel like i "abandonned" anybody. i go back to my parents house every weekend and i spend time with them... i talk to my friends every day and i see them when i go back to town! as for a car, my dad just got me one so im excited about that! so within the next couple of weeks i will be looking for a job and hopefully i wont feel so lonely!!

Way to go girl! I am truley happy for you! See, it's not so bad when you talk about it. Sometimes you get to see that it could be worse. I am glad I was able to help a bit. Good luck on job hunting!

thanks for taking the time to reply...it really did help !! i will be getting my car this weekend!!
