Lesson: don't be caught up with appearances
I found out 2 of my friends are going through a rough time today...Anh broke up with her boyfriend, just short of their one year anniversary. I'm not in her position so I don't want to be too judgemental. I think, though, that she is a little caught up in appearances, which she has been in the past as well with other people. I guess I can understand her feelings & her stress since there is a lot of social pressure to be a certain way. She and Joe are just great for eachother & he loves her dearly. It's so obvious that he is so in love with her....and that is a hard thing to find. She broke up with him because she can't see a future with him...he's "not going anywhere." He's not in school right now, doesn't have a degree...and can't get accepted anywhere but a community college. I guess appearances are that important to Anh that that would weigh that much in her mind when making her decision...He's a great guy and I honestly think she is making a huge mistake. I hope they can work things out...I feel for the both of them.
I called Tehreem tonight...she answered the phone crying...Turns out her boyfriend's mom got him engaged to another girl...without his permission. He is trying to get out of it...but...who knows. I can't believe that bitch....She doesn't like Tehreem's family because they don't have as much money as them, her mother has born all girls and no boys (of course boys are favored way more than girls) & they are from a different part of Pakistan. She has said awful things to Tehreem's mom & doesn't think Tehreem is good enough for her son. Bitch! It really makes me sad...Tehreem does not deserve this shit. Jabron (her bf) is her fucking world & they have been through so much shit over the past 4 or so years. I didn't know what to say to her tonight...nothing can take it away...I cried with her a bit & just told her that he won't go down without a fight, not to give up hope, and that I love her. What more can be said? I am so sorry for her...:( I just don't want her to end up in a depression...I know that she has been there before...and that's scary. Who can blame her though with the bullshit she has gone through with her family & then with Jabron's family? I just hope she will be ok...no matter what the conclusion.
Anyway...tomorrow I have to be up early to go to church. No, I'm not converting...I have to attend for my Theology group project. Then that is due on Tuesday.
Well I'm out for the night...peace.
