No Support. Period.
I understand that my parents want to direct me away from any future pain, but sometimes they have to let me learn on my own.
No guy has ever treated me like W.C.C. did. He loved me, appreciated me, and took me for what I am. He even put up with my parents not liking him and stood by my side no matter what. I love him with all of my heart and I don't want to let him go.
My parents are still controlling my life. True, they are taking up the slack that FAFSA is not paying for and even providing me a home, but those are just reasons to place me into their list of things they own. I am tired of being told that I can't do anything because they don't want me to. I AM 20 YEARS OLD, FOR GOD'S SAKE!!!
What they don't seem to understand is that there are not any men that are willing to commit into a relationship. Nowadays, men are too caught up in trying to find a job and being able to support themselves to even THINK about having a family. (Let alone, a girlfriend!) By this rate, I will NEVER get married. I REFUSE to get married by 30.
W.C.C. was the only man that I ever met that was wanting to be with me for the rest of our lives. No guy that I have ever been with seemed to really care or wasn't there to show that they did.
My parents will never be happy with anybody. They are just too high on their standards to really like anyone. W.C.C. may not be the smartest guy or have the richest career, but he shown something that my parents refuse to understand: true love. And now, he is going away to the National Guard. My parents won't even let me be with him for the last moments until he goes away.
Why can't my parents support me caring for him? Why can't they accept that he and I are trying to be friends and I just want to be with him for what little time I have with him? I wish they would just let me choose what I will do and, if it results in nothing but pain, let me learn from it.
F*cked up, isn't it?
