What is this thread all about?
Just a place for general discussion. A place to unload whats on your mind and talk about anything - personal, health, help needed, achievements, daily highs and daily lows, theories, predictions and what have you.
Does not need to be Q related.
I realized , with maturity, my errors in my choice of men, I was doing everything right morally speaking, in comparison to what the social norms would have allowed at that time. I waited for marriage, I was married when I became pregnant, I was settled, sober, and believed in my husband. It was later, after blaming myself and seeking council , both through AA and my Pastor, I came to the realization I had a tendency to be attracted to people's potential, instead of what they actually did do.
I hear you honey, been there, done that and got the T shirt. I placed too much confidence in the men in my life, and when I was let down it actually made me a better person.
It wasn't easy, I was devastated, but I put all of my commitment to my son, and just am very glad he did not have to know that guy and be betrayed by him . It was his loss in the end, my son is a good man, strong, kind, protective, funny as all get out, handsome, wise beyond his years. and, unlike his Momma at this age, very choosy about women, not so much in the looks department, but he wants someone sweet and shy , and the girls today think that is too old fashioned. He had a crush on this sweet Mennonite girl, and I would see her giving him a look too, I told him he would have to give up gaming and all that though, so, he is not ready, lol.
Oh honey bless your heart. There is no greater joy than raising a child alone and them turn out all good. I have told people that I would not take a million dollars for my daughter and the choices she has made in her life. My ex husband and I divorced when she was almost 8. Our marriage went south after we lost her identical twin sister to cancer at 3 years old. From then on it was just she and I. I poured my life and every penny I had into her. I prayed for God to keep her on the straight path. She has been such a blessing to me, she is an elementary school teacher with a beautiful family that has given me a wonderful son in law and a beautiful 2 yr old grandson that is my world. She has another boy on the way and I’m so excited. If God never blessed me with anything else in this life, I could never say a thing. Best part they are just two miles away. ❤️
