Cell phone coverage is down in our area. A cell that tower collapsed from a nearby construction site. My partner and I have been communicating through wifi today. She went to work and promised to call through wifi that was 2 hours ago. She was supposed to be at work almost an hour ago. I don’t know what is going on.
The kid she gets a ride with has a crush on her. Her mom constantly says well I dont know if she’s joking that my partner loves him and is gonna move with him and family to Alabama knowing it upsets me
@cbbrown, I know you’re working on getting out of there and I know money is tight, but until you’re able to escape, you’re going to have to manage this better than you are currently. With all of this sh it that your in laws put you through, why would you ever even consider believing a word that comes out of their mouths? These people are not trustworthy. People don’t just suddenly decide to have sex during WiFi outages. Your partner has been fine riding with this boy for at least several months I imagine. Why would she decide to cheat now? I don’t imagine many people’s consciences could handle that.
You’re right, I just worry too much I guess. I grew up with a cheater in the family ( I suspect both parents but dad could never prove my mom ever cheated) I know it happens.
Yes, that’s very true. I think you and your partner might want to try marriage counseling if you can. I don’t want to scare you because this very well may be a paranoid worry, but also, your partner is likely experiencing some severe cognitive dissonance.
On one hand, she loves you and understands that this environment is toxic for you and that you need to get out. On the other hand, these are her parents. The ones who gave her life, the ones who raised her with unconditional love. Is it truly right for her to choose you over them?
I worry that these doubts may lead to some sort of self-sabotage. “I don’t have to outright reject her if she decides to leave on her own” type thinking. A type of thinking that very well may lead to adultery.
A part of me knows she’s not a cheater. She doesn’t display any of the telling signs of one that I’ve picked up cues from my dad. I also know her phone password and she knows mine.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to say that she’s cheating now so confront her, what I’m getting at is that difficult situations push people to do strange things, and that marriage counseling may help you two to remain open with and understanding of each other.
