Aηahι- Aηι:{P  (ani--justkeepbeingawesome--) | 221 comments My parent are divorced since I was 11, I think, but it was not because of fighting or anything, thay get along luckly :) I live most of the time with my mom, also because my dad lives in the countryside so it's not confortable to e to go to school or hang out with my friends. For now I get along with them pretty well, I mean I'm not the kind that argues with them all the time and goes sayin 'augh, my mom this and my dad that', I love them :D (even if we have our disagreements hehe)


Aηahι- Aηι:{P  (ani--justkeepbeingawesome--) | 221 comments I'm glad too, I have some friends who's parents divorced with trial and fights and all that stuff :(

Taylor (clouddinosaur) I think my parents and I get along pretty well. They try to talk to me and understand me and be there for me. I really appreciate them.

Olivia (myteenme) | 163 comments My ma is a single parent. Never met my dad. My mum has a terrible temper. I only make it worse by back answers. Any advice would be appreciated.


message 5: by Olivia (new)

Olivia (myteenme) | 163 comments Well I tend to sometimes blurt out stuf dat I should keep in my head to my ma, I sometimes forget my manners, I sometimes get very frustrated because my ma is so disorganised and I just seem to get on my mums nerves. I find it really hard to stop and mum said if I don't finish my behaviour she will have to start punishing me :(

Olivia (myteenme) | 163 comments Thank you for the advice I think it wus especially hard in Spain as it wus just me and my ma for a week and she is a journalist so she works a lot and I don't she her too often so my gran is like my 2nd ma. I also didn't have my own room in the hotel so I didn't hav privacy. Now I am home so it will get better now

Kallie~ Can'tLive-WithOrWithoutYou (GlambertPhan15) | 859 comments My biological dad and my mother got divorced when I was about 5, and she got remarried when I was seven. I don't remember very well (well, I try not to anyway.)
I don't think my stepdad is AWFUL, we just don't get along on practically anything, and he's not always very nice... but... yeah. Don't wanna go into so much detail xD

Kallie~ Can'tLive-WithOrWithoutYou (GlambertPhan15) | 859 comments Next time you're on, sure. I'm sure I'll be ticked about something by tomorrow

Kallie, if you need anything before then, I'm here.

message 14: by Summer (new)

Summer (wildskf) My parents got divorced recently and remarried. They were married for 25 years(?) ... anyway, they are both remarried. Dad and his wife Hope are cool, but my mom and her husband Dennis are... strange. Dad is very loving and accepting of me. My mom said that the only thing worse than me being gay was being dead. I resent her a little :/


message 15: by [deleted user] (new)

That's horrible, Summer:(


message 16: by Summer (new)

Summer (wildskf) It is. I don't take it too personally though (as terrible as that sounds) because Mom is the type of person who hates everything that isn't white, straight, and Christian. She has successfully alienated all four of her children for varying reasons...

Me - because I'm gay

My sister/brother Marilyn/Micky - because she/he is transitioning

My sister Alanna - too many reasons to count... mainly because she won't put up with all the shit Mom says.

and my brother Blair - because he's into computers and an Atheist.

And Dad simply refers to her as 'my psycho bitch ex-wife'


She's kind of a horrible person ._. ...


message 17: by [deleted user] (new)

Oh my gosh.


message 18: by Sierra (new)

Sierra (skippingstones4) I think my mom is depressed. She never wants to go out and do anything and she's not very social at all. I don't know what to say or do because I don't think she would admit that she's depressed and then she would just get upset that I even brought it up. I really want to help her, but I have no idea how.

And then there's my dad. I feel like he thinks he has nothing to live for. It just seems like I'm not good enough for him. We used to be close, but then when he was building our house, he was gone all the time so our relationship just kinda disappeared. I just don't know what he wants from me. I feel like my brother is his favorite and I'm just in the background. He's always talking about how I should do this or I should do that. But he doesn't even know me. It's like we're from two completely different worlds. I don't even know what to say to him anymore.


message 19: by Eman (new)

Eman Salah about your mother , try to be so close to her
and be a friend to her , tell her your own thoughts , share her the conversation and talking , do anything she loves and make her smile .
about your father ,all fathers love their sons , maybe he cant express this feelings but he really love you
also try to be so close to him .
i hope that i can help you really .


message 20: by Sierra (new)

Sierra (skippingstones4) Thank you, Eman. I'll try that. I hope it helps too.


message 21: by [deleted user] (new)

I grew up in a very abusive household. But, over the years, and with a lot of therapy, I'm now close to both my parents and we have an honest, loving relationship.

The cycle can be broken, folks!


message 22: by [deleted user] (new)

Well thank you very much, Jessy! You made my day.


message 23: by [deleted user] (new)

I can't get my son out of the pool. He's gonna be all wrinkled. LOL


message 24: by [deleted user] (new)

We have our own in ground pool. We have pool parties all the time. At night, my wife and I skinny dip.XD


message 25: by [deleted user] (new)

LOLXD


message 26: by [deleted user] (new)

I see. TMI, right?

So you've NEVER skinny dipped, Jessy?


message 27: by [deleted user] (new)

Oh, you've got to try it. It's such a freeing feeling.


message 28: by [deleted user] (new)

Alrighty. Do you like the water?

Agreed.

Clothes are a nuisance in general ._. ....


message 30: by Summer (new)

Summer (wildskf) Just being honest :P - Felicia always fusses at me 'not being able to dress myself' - meaning I don't pay enough attention when I get dressed so I'll accidently be wearing things backwards and inside out.

I basically have like 10 pairs of beige corduroys and a ton of polo shirts I wear to work, and then when I'm not working, I wear jeans and fun shirts with like Pokemon or Angry Birds on them...... just never caught that girl fashion bug, I guess. I hate clothes shopping ._.

I will book shop for HOURS though, lol.


message 31: by Summer (last edited Aug 05, 2013 11:29AM) (new)

Summer (wildskf) The only clothes shopping I do like ... I was so sad I couldn't paint my hands... or make a tail in time. But I'm supposed to be the Ticking Crocodile from Peter Pan.


message 32: by [deleted user] (new)

Nice costume, Summer:)

Thanks! I had just started at the youth desk not too long before so I didn't have much time to make it. I think I still will make a tail for it. You never know when you'll need to dress up like a reptile :P

You don't think so? My hair's grown out since then. This was last year.

Have fun Jess!

Have a blast, Jessy!


message 36: by Kayla (new)

Kayla | 100 comments so umm... my mom and step dad started drifting and she started changing back to how she was before they got married (which is a really good thing). we went out to find me a one piece for swim class and i saw really cute dresses. i brought up homecoming and she said im not sixteen yet, i said i know but i am still going and she said thats fine. well someone asked me to go to homecoming and i said yeah, sure because he was a friend and yeah. i got home asked my mom if she wanted to go dress shopping with me, she asked why i told her. she then decided i couldnt go and that she had to talk to my step dad. now this was about 2 1/2 days ago, they started "fixing" things and now she is back to being a close minded douche that goes along and agrees with everything he says. which he said no so yeah she made me tell alejandro that i couldnt go and i felt really bad. i just dont think this is right


message 37: by Erin (new)

Erin (emm3281) I'm not sure what to tell you. But I don't think that's right either.


message 38: by Kayla (new)

Kayla | 100 comments yeah. i did it anyways, told him what happened. at least he understood:) i figured might as well go along with it rather than "cause problems between my mom and my step dad" whom she thinks comes first


message 39: by Erin (new)

Erin (emm3281) That's good that he understood. Do you know why she thinks he comes first?


message 40: by Kayla (new)

Kayla | 100 comments the religion. i just know it has something to do with that. i told her that it feels like she is choosing him over me and she just said: well, hes my spouse. and i just mumbled "well i was your daughter first", walked away and went to bed


message 41: by Erin (new)

Erin (emm3281) I agree with you. You came before he did


message 42: by Kayla (new)

Kayla | 100 comments yeah. and when they were drifting she told me that now that she thinks about it she doesnt know if she ever TRULY loved him, just was in love with the idea of being with him.... i dont know i just think that as long as they are together (not that i want them to get divorced if it means it will hurt them, mostly my mom) its going to be extra hard for me. but i can deal with it. if they keep causing problems i might have enough reasons (again) to try to be emancipated or something like that


message 43: by Erin (new)

Erin (emm3281) I'm sorry you have to deal with that


message 44: by Kayla (new)

Kayla | 100 comments its okay sorry for going on about it. they say that they are going to get me a therapist so hopefully that will help. i just hope they arent in the church..... no offense to mormons


message 45: by Erin (new)

Erin (emm3281) I'm Mormon, but I totally agree. The Mormon counselor I went to just made things worse.


message 46: by Kayla (new)

Kayla | 100 comments yeah. i was born into the mormon church and as i got older my opinions of things changed and i gained new and different beliefs. i have nothing against mormons but when the start pushing things on me and telling me that my beliefs are wrong or something that i believe in is a sin thats when i get frustrated..


message 47: by Erin (new)

Erin (emm3281) Yeah. I agree. There are some pretty big things that I don't agree worth the church on.


message 48: by Kayla (new)

Kayla | 100 comments yeah :) when i turn 18 i am leaving the church, not joining another one and just sticking to my own beliefs. i dont like being tied down to any one religion.


message 49: by Erin (new)

Erin (emm3281) I don't think I'll leave the church, I just might try to convince them to be more accepting and love-one-another-ish.


message 50: by Kayla (new)

Kayla | 100 comments haha thats a good idea. go for it! :) thats not a bad idea
