Cheating Lowlife Ex
|
|
usually I would say just go on and let that be your revenge,but in the case of my ex-fiance that went out the window.I found emails to other girls in his myspace,and even one to a drag queen that he had sent over the last two months of our relationship,sent from my computer since he was living with me.I printed them out,kicked him out of the house then sent copies of them to his dad,his captain at the fire department that he was volunteering for,and the head guard at the prison he worked for....needless to say he got fired a few months later for something I wont discuss on here
granted it was childish of me,but it made me feel better at the time and it got my point across |

This is my personal opinion and personal experience. Please do not take this in any other way but my opinion. Step away..there are to many fish in the sea. You are a pretty girl and getting involved with someone who now has a record is a bad move. First of all it is a DWI, we all make mistakes. Not like he is a mass murderer. sheesh!!!! I know alot of great people who have f*cked up... you're right it's a DWI not attempted murder. I say give it a week it's only monday. If he was in there all weekend he probably slept on sunday and worked today. Yup, it's just a DWI. It's not like he got behind the wheel of a 2,000lb missile and went weaving down the road toward innocent people and was driving so erratically that a cop just felt the need to pull him over and discuss the recently released business plan for Dunkin Donuts. I am sure the cop was wrong. The best that could have happened was for him to pass out at the wheel and kiss a telephone pole. The worst..... well, it's not attempted murder, right? Just STUPID F*CKING IGNORANCE! God I can't stand drunks! My suggestion is to RUN!!! How many DUI's has he had in the past? The law should be changed to say that a DUI gets you a minimum of 30 days in the crowbar motel getting a striped tan and one year's loss of driving privileges. maybe if you are actually driving...many states have the law that states you can be charged with a DUI just for sleeping in your vehicle, car in park, engine off, just the radio on...that is a crock of s**t.... the question is of the circumstances around the situation... I am sure you are so perfect that you never do things that others can't stand? What does perfection have to do with not taking someone's life in your hands due to your own stupidity? How many innocent people die on the highway each year because someone was driving drunk? Can you REALLY find it in yourself to excuse that? The law is the law because there are morons who don't think. Driving drunk is as bright as closing your eyes each time you come to a railroad crossing. It is nature's way of weeding out the stupid but unfortunately innocent people are taken out as well. Next time you stand in front of the judge for a DUI you can tell him, well, at least I didn't kill anybody. I am sure he will be lenient. you dont even know the full story and here you are judging someone you dont even know.you're just going to keep on being closed minded despite what anyone says,so you arent even worth fighting with. JSYK, Emerald, I am on your side here... thank you I'm glad someone here isnt out to condemn my decisions.some people are so small minded that they cant be reasoned with,and they'll never meet me or the guy I've been talking about,so why waste energy fighting.Alcoholism runs in my family,and I drink,but only on special occasions and never to get drunk.leaving the keys in the ignition was stupid,granted,but this was over a year ago,and he doesnt drink like that anymore.if I have low standards because I'm willing to look past his mistakes and see the person inside that wants to change,then I have low standards,and I'm not going to change who I am because someone doesnt like it. |

I'm not going to argue about this anymore,you're entitled to your opinion about things and I to mine.if you feel the need to insult me and the choices I make for my life,then by all means lower yourself to the standards of a teenager and do so.I know the story and circumstances of the situation better than anyone else,so all you're spouting is blind judgements,and I'm done defending myself to you two

here's the thing....I met someone on here,and hit it off with him,had the first offline meeting and everything.I knew going in that he had a dwi and that he'd have to serve at least 3 days in jail.he was supposed to have gotten out saturday night,and I havent heard from him since he went in.I'm thinking that his sentence might have been extended,since he hasnt been online or anything since the night before he went in.I really like this guy,and his charges are from a year ago,made some changes since then.my question is should I give this a chance,or should I just go on my way? thanks for the laugh mirror I needed that zapchaser: who says I'm lowering my expectations for giving someone a chance?at my age I could be a shallow b!tch about it and say screw you to the guy,but I was raised better than that.I dont judge people that try to do the right thing after they screw up.I could've gone to jail for reckless driving,but the cop who pulled me over saw the good in me and gave me a break,and I changed after that.I'm giving this guy that same chance,and if people want to condemn me for if,then go ahead and do it til you turn blue in the face,I'm a strong enough person to handle it |

i'd say give him a chance if that was his only offense.hell i have a record but i learned my lesson....and next time i'll try harder not to get caught hehe j/k (or am i?) lol it could be worse couldnt it I've already met the guy,met some of his family,and they all confirm what he's told me about his past,and I believe them and him.if he really wanted to lie to me then wouldnt he have kept the dwi a secret instead of telling me? besides,no one is perfect,we all screw up,god knows I have,could've gone to jail myself,but I didnt,and if he tried to pull the wool over my eyes he lives in an area that I'd find out about it,not that I think he would |

Hey sweetie, just call the jail and find out the status on his sentence. If its just a dui, you shouldn't worry about it. But if he's in county, I think it is more like 30 days. the minimum required sentence for a dwi in texas is 72 hours in jail,but sometimes judges give probation for the full sentence.his original sentence was 18 months probation,with the serving 72 hours as a condition of the probation.I'm going to call the jail in the morning and see what they'll tell me.even if they did extend his sentence,that doesnt matter to me.He's been nothing but honest with me,and wants to change,so if me being there will help with that,then why not give him a chance?I dont believe in turning my back on someone who's proven themself to be a good person for mistakes that happened in their past.it's just who I am,and always will be |

The right thing to do....

just shoot them a couple of times with a pellet or paintball gun,they'll stay away and it wont kill them.you'd figure that the police would do something since the dogs are considered a threat to public safety and would be held responsible if anyone gets bitten or attacked for their failure to do anything

You can still give him his chance but keep a open mind and don't let him pull you into anything your not ready for. absolutely,I dont think he could make me do anything against my will,I'm too stubborn for that lol.like I said,I've had family in jail before,and I'm not going to ignore anyone for something like that unless they were in for a violent crime.he was open about things from the beginning,never tried to hide it from me,and was afraid that I wouldnt give him the time of day because of it,and was very attentive before he went in,that's why I think the judge extended his sentence since he'd text or talk on here with me a couple times a day.if it turns out to be a mistake,then I'll learn from it,otherwise why not try? |

just because someone has a record doesnt necessarily mean they're a bad person,in his case he made a few stupid mistakes and he's actively trying to change.I've had family get thrown in jail because they took the fall for another family member,and they did the time then rebuilt their lives.that's just my experience though,I'm willing to give this guy the benefit of the doubt once I find out for sure what's going on,and only then

I'm from weatherford,and I have to say I laugh when I hear people say they come here to goof off,when everyone from here goes to ft worth or dallas to goof off,same for granbury where my guy lives lol Hey now Weatherford is a nice little town and they have one heck of a Steak House too hummm huhhh good and the little stores are a blessing to go explore. never said it wasnt,it's just funny to me that people say that now,when it was a little hick town when I was a kid and everyone complained about having nothing to do seriously though I love Weatherford,was born here and will probably die here |

Do kids need both parents
|

If you can keep both parents in the home then great,otherwise a child can survive with just one parent and still turn out normal.My real dad has 3 kids(me included),and not a single one of us have anything to do with him.Him and my mom divorced when I was 10,and it was the best thing that could've happened to me rather than live in constant turmoil.He told my mom that he was going to run off with me so many times that her lawyer put a restraining order on him for the year that it took to get the divorce finalized.He also said that he wouldnt pay as much in child support on me as he did for both my brothers combined,and I'm a severe asthmatic for crying out loud.If my dad would've gotten custody of me,I probably would have died years ago.Instead he got the book thrown at him and I got to live with my mom.Things were never easy,but if I had to live through it all again I wouldnt change a thing.I'm a better person because he wasnt in my life,and it taught me what not to look for in a guy,without a daily male influence.

almost married one,came in from work one night to find him sitting on the bed with a shotgun.He'd gotten into a fight with his dad and was talking about going back and killing him.needless to say it freaked me out to the point I called my dad to come take the gun from him and I slept at a neighbor's house that night.I kicked him out a week or so later and havent seen him since

that's about as bad as me looking through profiles on search and it pops up this guy that his headline said he was looking for transsexuals or "strap-on girls" only.I took one look at that and was like ok what the hell.Kinda creepy honestly

It's actually Ulta,and they dont carry MAC cosmetics,I used to work there.MAC should have a website,and if there's any malls around you try asking there.The cosmetics industry is competitive so the people at the cosmetics counters may know where you can find it
