Vent/Rant/or just SCREAM!!!

[luvsdemons666]

I don't know about the rest of you but sometimes I just have a bad day and just want someone to talk to....more like rant or scream to So if you have just one of those days and you want to "talk" to someone, then just post your problem and we'll listen...more like hold our ears and hope the ringing in our ears stop ;D

[luvsdemons666]

I'm gonna be the first(yeah I know I could be venting under my site but no one is really there because its under maintenance).

My mom and older sister are almost always fighting. I mean I can stand the fighting, honest, I can. It's just when they start bad mouthing each other behind their backs and when my mom says my sister has to be out of the house by the end of the month...Now that I can't stand. A few weeks ago that happened and my mom said she was to be out the house by the end of August. Well... Now they got into an arguement again tonight, over some stupid branches that had to be put upfront and she wasn't helping(you can thank my younger sister for tattle-telling). And now she has to be gone TONIGHT!!! There's a bunch of reasons why I'm so upset right now.

1. This is my sister we're talking about. Sure we never got along very well. But she was the only sister I could talk about adult things with. My oldest sister has problems of her own, my younger sister wouldn't understand, and my mom most likely wouldn't listen or she would just shrug whatever I said off.

2. I know this sounds kind of concede but she owes me three books she said she was going to buy for me. And now I know that's not going to happen. To think I was really looking forward to readin Blacklisted, Fantasy Lover, and the Darkest Whisper. Not to mention now I would have to buy the Southern Vampire if I want to read them, 'cause she's be taking those with her.

3. Arguing makes my mom get sick. She gets serious chest and head pains. And it hurts me to see her like that. I also know, even is she doesn't admit it out loud, that it makes her feel sad and angry with herself when she argues with my sister and has to throw her out.

I just don't know what to do, if I can do anything at all. With my mom being angry(and possibly sad) it's kind of hard to talk to her about it.

Hmmm...this is a difficult situation luvs. And I honestly don't have any good advice. I've always had an amazing relationship with my parents...though my brother has gotten himself in seriously deep water, but my parents have never threatened to kick him out. Obviously your sister and mom have issues that they need to work through.

One thing that I feel fairly confident saying is that there isn't anything that you can say or do to help the situation, unfortunately. This is something that they will need to address themselves. It just complicates things to try to get in between family members feuds.

That much I do know. My brother and sister are both quite a bit older than me and I have never been close to either of them or really got along with them at all. It's very stressful for my parents, especially my Dad because he had a bad family life growing up and hates to see his kids fighting.

I'm sorry I don't have anything to say to make the situation better in any way.

It's okay, just needed to vent. Thanks for trying anyways.

Though I highly doubt they will sort things out, EVER. They are both headstrong woman...huh, wonder where I get???... *shakes head to get back on track*

Anyways, if they ever do sort it, it'll be because some kind of emergency has occurred which requires them to cooperate and then forgive each other. Though I don't see that happening anytime soon. *Pauses to give an evil grin* Unless I where to "accidentally" fall down the steps or something and end up in the hospital, that'll get them to forgive each. *Walks away to call one of her dogs and get them to knock her down the stairs*

*Then laughs hysterically* Nah... I won't do that unless it were an actual accident. *Just walks away shaking her head shamelessly*

I'm not going to go into too much detail but there is major problems at my house. It all starts with my "dumb alcoholic" step-dad.

Okay first off, for the past year or so we've been on well-fare and food stamps since my mom doesn't have a job and she has to feed herself, me, and my two sisters(well maybe not the older one anymore).

My mom and step-dad have been separated for two years now and are trying to divorce. But he is being an ass and dragging it out as long as he can. The one thing my mom has noticed during the whole thing is, he only cares about money. Every time they go to mediation, it's money this, money that, when they're supposed to be talking about my younger sister(his daughter). So now he has to pay(which he hasn't been) $300 a week to my mom to help care for my sister. But he says that's too much and if they don't lower it he's going to get full custody of my sister. First off, what judge is dumb enough to let an alcoholic(whether he's been clean for a year or not) get custody of a fourteen year old.

Now here comes the really problem. Apparently, he "anonymously" called social services that 1. my mom makes $2,000 a month from a small business that we no longer are dong anymore(especially since we've never made more than a couple of hundred dollars from and all that usually went to gas money, food, and the hotel bill) and 2. that my younger sister ran away and my mom didn't do anything but beat her. Which is soooooo not true. We've only ever been spanked or whacked upside the head but even most kids who get in trouble get spanked. Other than that we've never been touched abusively by our mom.

So yeah, that's today's problem. It's gotten my mom really upset, especially when they told her that she shouldn't be surprised if d.. I don't how to spell it, all I know is they are the people who take away abused children, comes and takes my younger sister away. Worse, apparently they come in the middle of the night, just so the kid is so tired that they agree to anything they say, even if it's a lie. My mom had to deal with that with my older sister and now she feels she's going through it again.

Don't expect anyone to give advice on this one, I don't think anyone can help. Just needed to vent about how horrible my life is.

Oh, speaking of my horrible life, that includes me never winning a freakin contest(even after I pray, beg, and plead to God to let me win), the fact that I don't have a boyfriend(even though I "desperately" want one) and yet every one in my family(including my still single 40-some year old uncle) has had a girl/boy-friend, and the fact that I can never keep myself to focus on one thing and stick with it(meaning I change my mind... ALOT)

[Adalee]

Okay...~cracks knuckles~...let's at least work out a few of the problems that we can here. ~skickers~

First of all...everyone changes their mind alot. Everyone. It's human nature. Take me for example. I went to University for 3 years and got myself in so much debt (student loans)...for what? Nothing. I was working towards my Zoology degree, which I am almost finished...but it was all for nothing because I have decided instead to dedice myself to writing. So, don't stress over the fact that you change your mind alot. It's natural.

Secondly, when I was your age, I was honestly just like you. Desperate for a relationship. I didn't even start dating until last year, when I was almost 22. And now...well, my priorities have changed. I am trying to get my life together, which I can't do with a guy in it. And I have spent too much time watching my friends be in bad relationships simply becuase they "need" to be with someone, so they end up settling for whatever shmuck wants a peice of ass.

I am completely unwilling to settle for someone who doesn't make my blood boil and treat me with every ounce of respect that I deserve, so I have stopped even thinking about having/getting a boyfriend. I am young and have so much that I want to accomplish. I have plenty of time for love and family. Right now, this time is for me.

Please luvs, don't be like so many young women who fall in love just because they feel that they are in some way lacking if they don't have a boyfriend.

And lastly, if it makes you feel any better, I hardly ever win contests either. But, I'll let you in on a little something. Once I have enough members (50), I am planning on running a monthly contest...the prizes being newly released books from our spectacular Paranormal Romance authors. So, maybe you'll get lucky and win a new book!

[luvsdemons666]

Yeah I know but it's not so much that feel I'm lacking, it's more of I see how happy everyone is with their boy/girl friend and it kinda makes me feel sad. And it's the fact that I would like someone to talk to in a way I wouldn't be able to with my family, I mean a romantic way. I start talking about mushy, gushy romantic stuff in my house and everyone just wants to throw up.

As for the contests, I'll glad enter them, especially if it's the first one to a series I don't have yet. I especially love entering contests that give away gift cards to amazon, that way I can get 3 books for $20.

But alas the only contest I have ever won was one to write a poem for someone's birthday and the only reason I won was because I used an endearment the host used for that person. I still haven't received my prize and I won it about 2 to 3 weeks ago. My younger sister said it was one of those rip off contests where they get you to give them your address but I said it wasn't because it was one of those official sites and everyone else who has one contests have mentioned that they received their prizes. I don't know... for all I know my sister right and the people who have won those contests are in on it.


Anyways, I had a great evening. My grandmother took us out clothes shopping for the new school year. And I have to admit, even though I'm not one of those obsessive girly shoppers, that I got some pretty cute clothes. There is this sweater like... thing.... that I haven't even taken off since getting home I love it so much. I did that once before with this cute sweater vest with a furry(fake furry...thankyou*swipes hands across forehead* otherwise I would have freaked out) hood that I got for Christmas and didn't take it off until dinner time.

~sighs~ Damn it!

My...sort of ex...suddenly called me up today, after not talking to me all summer. We only dated for a short time, but he was moving WAY too fast and I just wasn't really that into him. You know...we just didn't mesh.

Anyway, after I told him I wasn't interested in moving forward in our "relationship", he got all offended and stopped talking to me. And so now all of a sudden he calls me up and wants to know if I want to throw frisbee with him?

What...the...hell?

Gods...I don't understand men.
