What if your girlfriend was in a relationship with her ex for 19 years, but lets just say 7-19 years and she tell you they are like her family, they took her in like a daughter. She call the ex's parents Ma and Pa and boast and brag about how good they are to her. In your mind you like d%am well how can my parents or family compete with that. Even after she have broken up with the ex (so she say or it could be the other way around) because the ex cheated.
5 months/year later she are anxious to have you meet her "family" in which its not her real family. She tell you the ex's parents bagged her before she left living in their home to bring her next boyfriend down for dinner so they can meet him and call him son in law. SON IN LAW???? Really. This is the family of the man you was screwing and had a relationship with for 19 years.
My question is if you was in my shoes, and your lover ask/begged you to go would you go, knowing their ex will probably see you or the parents may tell their son about you and what kind of guy you are. I told her IDK I can't say yeah right now. She said well they are my family and if you are with me then you will have to accept them or meet them one way or another. She said well you want me to meet your family right? well then you have to meet mine (the ex's family). She haven't mention me meeting her actual family like aunts, uncles, cousins. What if She eventually just secretly just want to throw in ex face that she is doing fine without him or to make him realize what he miss out on??? Am I overreacting?.
Thanks. IF you are a female switch the role. What do you think also. What could I say to her to let her know she thinking crazy.
I still like the places I did before interacting with others from other places.
Nothings really changed, it's foolish to let people on CD control your image of a place. For example, I've been to NYC enough to know that it's a friendly place, foods good, and I really like it there. Don't want to live there of course (Because I want to live in San Diego/Pittsburgh), but really love it there.
Okay for example, there's a thread about lets say San Diego and San Francisco going on, and then someone from like NYC or Houston start talking about what their city has over any other city. It gets SO ANNOYING. It's like okay we get it, give it a damn rest for once....
And I especially HATE the people who KNOW their city gets more attention than any other city for selective criteria and they still go on boasting it only to defend their post by saying "I didn't think it was getting attention for this". I really feel for people in Cincy, Indy, Pittsburgh, Grand Rapids, Detroit, Chicago, who try to display the good in their city only to get SHOT DOWN by someone from some place like NYC or something like that... it's just not fair for everyone... and it gets annoying as heck... Hell, I'm tired of people in Houston (I'm a Houston resident) thinking their economy is better than Chicago's (Also a Chicago resident) just because it's growing at a faster rate... gladly most Houstonians in real life don't think that, just some on here do. Same thing with the NY residents, in real life they're not like that, just some on CD are. Like seriously sometimes I really have an urge to say "sthu and gtfo the computer" because some people do not add to threads they just show counter productiveness, constant bickering, and personal attacks thinking they know the person they're talking to... get real.
By the way, I didn't reference, or hint anyone in particular here, so DON'T EVEN think about...
Some of the posters are ridiculous though, superiority problems, arrogance, just way to much talk and little to prove, and I'm not talking about the New Yorkers here, I'm talking about people from everywhere, NY, California, Texas, everywhere...
I'm glad I don't post or read the Relationships forum. That must be one scary place...and I post in P&OC.
