  1. We, human beings are born on earth, under the same sky, under the same sunlight and moonbeam, Why do we have different destinies! Children of the poor have no money to buy books and go to school, Children of the rich go to study abroad. Those with dollars are winners and those with empty stomachs are losers. Court clerks and judges swindle. Where is Justice! Anarchic society with dictatorship, injustice, market dwellers, gambling, nepotism and gangsters, No respect for law, fighting, killing each other, causing misery and suffering. How long will I survive! Dirty society, bribery and dollars rule; cheating people out of property, people cry out. The bad ones enjoy beautiful villas while powerful figures sit down, cross legged and relaxed! No compassion, no sentiment, farmers with no land, peasants with no crops like off-season flowers. While peasants’ hands are picking fish paste , powerful figures gamble big hands in casinos. How long will I survive! A poem by Mam Sonando

  3. Myself,my husband and my brother went to Vegas for New Years. It was supposed to be fun. We were supposed to take a plane but due to bad weather the airport closed or cancelled most of the flights leaving our state. So we rented a car. I drove, my bro and my hubby sat in the back of the luxury rental and drank. It was a 12hr drive which I did sober. I was ok with this. We get into Vegas around 130am Sat. They want to go out to the casinos and party some more. I was ok with this, I was tired and stayed in the hotel room and got some sleep. Sat afternoon we decided to go into CA to see my hometown. Again I drove and the "boys" partied in the backseat. We returned to Vegas around midnight,we changed our clothes and hit the strip,had a good time, my hubby got a little out of control, but I dealt with it, we were in Vegas. New Years Eve we decide to get out early, but before we leave the hotel room, the "boys" dabble into some illegal stuff. We go to a bar in Ceasar's. My hubby was completely out of control. He was so bad that I asked him to step out of the bar and talk to me in private. He began to yell at me in the middle of the casino. I told him to calm down and to just let it go. I told him that its 10pm lets get some booze and hit the strip and find a good spot for the fireworks. I asked him to go back into the bar and get my brother. He went back in. He had my ID,all the money(except for $10 in my pocket),he never came back out. I waited about 20 minutes stood back in line to find out that I couldnt get back in w/o my Id. I waited til 1130 and still no show. I called his cell, no answer. All I had on me was $10 and my hotel key. I waited 1.5 hrs and he still didnt come out. I got a taxi and headed back to the hotel room. I missed the entire celebration. He rolled in about 6am. He yelled at me and wanted to know why I left him. I told him what happened and he said I was lying. He accused me of leaving with some guy. He blamed everything on me. I tried to tell him that I waited for him but he didnt want to hear anything from me. I finally told my brother what happened and he was pissed at my husband. My brother told me that he was told that I went back to the hotel room and to pary with out me!! I am soo pissed. Part of me wants to leave him. This isnt the first time his "partying" has interfered with our marriage. He has done this on a few other occasions. Other than this he is a good man. I dont know what todo.

  5. I've posted in other forums about this person I've been involved with on and off for the past ten months. I know I cannot go on this way and now think I don't want to bring in the new year in this situation, but it would help me if I got a reality check. First off, I am not perfect. I have a bipolar condition and drink alcohol which I am not supposed to be doing. There have been a few times I "lost it" with him, at times I was drinking, at times I was not. Only once did I REALLY lose it, and it's when he insisted on coming over after he'd told me he didn't want to see me that weekend. So, he's never hit me, although last night he did violently slam my car door very hard. I'd been sick all week and agreed to drive over to his side of town so he could buy some Christmas presents (I am the one with the Costco card) He ended up buying one bottle of cognac for his coworker and it was obvious that is all he wanted me for last night, as he had to go to other errands, in spite of his telling me we'd go to the mall together. What provoked his anger is that I started crying and he thought what I felt was stupid. I told him I thought he took me for granted and he lost it. This seems to happen on a weekly basis, only the circumstances change. In ten months he's taken me to dinner once -- and then at the casino buffet. I've cooked for him MANY times. I don't mind it, as I like to cook, but it would be nice to get out of this house. I'd been begging him to take me to a lake North of here for six months, and he finally did. We were there for half an hour and "had to leave to get back to town," but of course we had to stop at the casino, which resulted in a huge blow out fight. I didn't have cash and asked him to loan me $8 and he got angry and told me to use the ATM. He'd loaned me $12 and I was just asking for the eight remaining. I told him I'd pay him back the $20 as soon as we got into town, but he said no and that I should know better than to leave the house without cash. I am not forbidden to ever go to the casino with him, going forward, but I hate them anyway and don't gamble. I gave him a beautiful ring for his birthday, that I had had, as he really likes jewlery and made him a really nice dinner. When my birthday rolled around 5 months later he didn't even call me, so I called him. He says he didn't forget, but we'd been fighting so why should he call me. He ended up hanging up on me that night. In fact, he's hung up on me quite a few times, most recently tonight as I brought up my BD, and he blamed me for how things went. He didn't answer the phone when I called him back and, of course, I am forbidden from calling him after 9 pm, as his roommate has that rule. He doesn't have a cell phone so here I sit with all of this inside. He tells me he'll take me to dinner when I stop bugging him to take me to dinner and that it will be on his terms and his timing. I asked him a month ago if we could go and he said no. A couple of nights ago he said he knows a place at the mall (mall we were supposed to go to last night) to take me out to dinner, and that he will as I haven't said anything about dinner lately. Who knows if this will ever happen. My mother hates him, my best friend hates him. I am tired of my mother asking me if he's ever going to take me out and asking me if I'm up for a lifetime of cooking and his going to the casino. My girlfriend asks me if I ever got a card or anything for my BD or if he's ever done the flower thing and of course the answer is no. He blames me for what they think of me and says I only tell them the bad stuff. He tells me that mental illness runs in families and circles and that he has never had any issues. Hard to argue with someone who works in mental health who has never even seen a therapist. In short, everything is my fault and I have to fix everything. If I could stop wondering if this is emotional abuse and just get some feedback from objective people, that might help me know what to do. I don't want to think I am some whiny and demanding spoiled brat (which he has accused me of being on several occasions). Honestly, I'd be thrilled if he just asked me out on a Saturday night to some hole in the wall. He is set in his ways and I think he is just cheap, at times. It's like he won't spend $10 on me, yet has no problem feeding anywhere between $100 to $200 to those slot machines. I've told him groceries cost money and once in a while he's brought over something from a food bank and he does buy an occasional bottle of wine -- very occasionally. I guess the kicker is I quit my job a month ago and had finally come to a place where I was ok with the concept of moving out of state, as I am not happy where I live. All of a sudden he changed his tune and after one month, I think he is reverting to who he was before. At any rate, sorry for the length, but I am trying to be fair and share as much info as necessary but not more than needed. Any thoughts/opinions are welcome.
  6. Ok, was this a bad thing I did? I was moving along on NC and didn't see this guy for two months. He became very perisistent and I agree to give him one hour of my time last weekend. We spent the night together and I had a feeling things were maybe going to turn the corner. I told him I didn't want to see him this weekend, but he called me anyway. I had four hours of dental work done yesterday so I felt like crap, drank some wine, took a sleeping pill and was all ready to call it a night -- then he comes. For some reason I agree to see him and I even suggest we go to the casino (which I hate). But I thought I'd have a couple drinks at the bar and he'd gamble on things would be ok. Things got hazy. I wasn't having any fun just sitting at the bar so I went to find him. He was playing the slots and not winning. He ended up saying something negative about my mental health or some such (don't remember exactly) so I walked up to information and said I needed a cab. I went outside the casino and sat there for maybe 10 minutes. Walked back into the casino to look for him and could not see him among the sea of all those people. So I went outside again. I was soooooooo incredibly sad just sitting there for another 10 or 20 minutes waiting for a cab to come. Finally, I just walked up to any cab and said I wanted a ride home. It was expensive. At any rate, the guy did not even bother to call my cell to see if I was home safe. I callled him three times today and the first time he was sleeping, next two times the machine was on. My girlfriend thinks it's horrible he just let me walk off (and BTW, there is only one main entrance to the place and he didn't even come to look for me). I think he is feeling offended that I had the nerve to leave him there. What's your opinion? If he doesn't call me today (and I left him a message asking him to call me today), I swear he is history. No matter how many phone calls he makes (although maybe after last night he'll figure I'm a lush and I'm just not worth it anymore), I am not getting sucked in again. No, I didn't make a scene, he just hates it when I drink more than a couple and how I look with him when in one of these places is VERY important to him.
  7. Here's the situation... and a few tidbits that I found out this past weekend... She was scheduled to take La. Boards in Shreveport, La. in Mid-July...She told me that she was going to be flying in. What she didn't tell me was that she was flying into Dallas with this guy, and they were going to drive down together to S'port to take the test...(he took it as well). She called me the first night that she was in Shreveport, telling me that she had just won some money at the casino. I was excited for her and asked her "wow, cool...who are ya with?"....to that, she replies "Nobody." "Wow..." is the expression on my face when one of our mutual friends told me of this. They found out about this through him, and he's got no reason to tell lies or stories. I am very...I don't know...disappointed that I was left in the dark, deceived like this. Should I confront her and tell her that I know? It's like I'm armed with information, but unaware of what the best way to use it is....or I can just keep this info inside of me and take no course of action. Continue to let go and move on, but I am still so disappointed that I was deceived...Thoughts?
  8. MY gf's mom is very shady and mean.. She will make fun of her own children(20 years+) because they are over weight...

HER MOM IS A PAIN IN THE A**!!!!!!!!! I STRONGLY DISLIKE HER I USED TO DO EVERYTHING FOR HER AND NOW SHE TALKS SO MUCH STUFF ABOUT ME ITS INSANE
  9. Hi everyone! Well, the next chapter of my story involving this woman from India too another twist for me. The story kind of starts here if you are interested: link removed Anyway, yesterday I emailed her a few times at work and got quick responses. Then she dropped off for about four hours because I guess she was busy. I was kind of bumbed out about it as the day before she turned down getting coffee together as she said she was too busy. She did get back to me and seemed very interested in what I was writing. Well, we had a holiday office party that night and it was in our building and we saw each other going in. I pretty much kept to my friends and then we decided to all go to the casino. Well, on the way I talked to some co-workers who are Indian and they flat out were convinced that she liked me and that I just had to keep up what I was doing and be patient. They said for an India girl to even be txt messaging me and writing back to me meant she was interested, and perhaps not to take the issue with her parents as serious as I was. I kept asking them, are you listening to my story, and the part about her just wanting to be friends, but they insisted that she had to be interested to be acting the way that she was. So we get to the casino and I am not thinking anything about her when I get a txt message from the girl and I was surprised. She asked how I liked the party and that she couldn't stay long. I replied that we were all having fun bla bla. I showed it to my friend who is a girl and she asked who initiated the messaging. When I said she did she was surprised. So this morning I came in and emailed her good morning and got the same back. I txt messaged her at 9pm to see what she was doing and she was busy cleaning because she had family coming in. I said that I was just going to call and say hi. So I call her and we talk for a bit and then she hangs up on me cause the Apprentice is on. It was super abrupt. Look, I like the show too but geez. I am trying so hard to be patient. I don't know why it takes some people to take awhile to decide if they like someone or not, and what to do about it. I don't even know what to do next. Do I keep up with the little stuff? Ask her out to lunch although I have a feeling she'll turn me down? I don't even want to answer the phone if she calls me back because I feel blown off. I don't want to play games either. . . . . .
