I'm baaaaaaaaaack!
That's right. Stop blinking. It's really me. Holly. I'm back to Livejournal. And honestly, it feels like home.
I don't have much to say right now about my whole life overall, but I will say that my heart is hurting a little bit from crap that's going on in the romance department.
My boyfriend's parents don't think we should get married right after he finishes school (which isn't for another year and a half anyway). They believe he should take a long time and "be by himself" (somehow that is supposed to bring 'stability') whatever the hell that means. (You should know, this is coming from two slackers who refuse to work and actually raise the 3 children they created together. Also, they don't sleep in the same room or have any sort of romantic relationship - AND his mother tries to clean red dye out of a beige rug with Windex - ch'yeah... they must know a whole helluvalot!)
Also, they said that we need marriage counseling. We absolutely must speak with a pastor before getting married. Honestly, that may have been an option before but I will completely unashamedly admit that it is now out of the question because they said we should do it. These people make NO decisions without speaking to a pastor first, and I believe that's just wrong. A pastor is not God. Humans are supposed to be able to make decisions and distinguish between right from wrong on their own. We don't need a second or third party to give their opinion on everything.
Also, they know absolutely nothing of our relationship. Not one thing. The only thing they even know about ME is whatever their youngest daughter contrives about me. She hates me, by the way. She had no problem with me and the second her brother and I began dating she hated me. It's fine, though. I'll be fine.
So there you have it. My triumphant return to Livejournal and it's already getting good, I would say.
There are so many good things in my life right now... I wouldn't want anyone to think my life sucks. This one thing is just killing me right now. I'm at that point where I am mad beyond words.
I'm just going to continue sighing through the rest of my day here at work.
This is the kind of thing that makes me feel like I can't even count on our relationship. I don't want him to be easily swayed by his parents or other people's opinions but sometimes it seems like he is. He never tells me 'I don't agree with what my parents said - I think they're wrong'. I have to drag it out of him because he always keeps me wondering 'Wait... does he agree with his whacked-out parents or what?!' It depressing. And confusing. And I hate it.
Ok. Well I'm done this rant for now. I'm back. I need some new friends so don't be afraid to talk to me, add me, whatever. I look forward to meeting new people and posting pics and goodies!! I want to be active in LJ again. I miss it. :)
