Hey guys. I could use a spot in your prayers, again. It's now been two months since Jay and I lost our jobs. The first is coming up rapidly, and we don't have rent money. We also don't have anywhere to go. Our power is also due to be shut off this week. Then, when we FINALLY had an interview, for a job I know we would get, the truck dies, and we have to no way to get there! His parent's have requested that he go over and speak with them tomorrow, without me, which means big trouble for him. They already don't think I'm good enough for him, and blame me for all the problems. So if y'all could keep me in your prayers, I would be ever so thankful.

Cassie I will definately be praying for you. Im a little shocked at his parents attitude. If I remember right, didn't you guys use all your money to help his dad when he was in the hospital and needed treatment? Yet they are treating you this way?

Well, I guess the talk could have been worse. He was gona about two hours, and was in a decent mood when he got home. They wanted to know why we weren't at our last job (because apparently they thought we just didn't like it and walked out), why we don't have new jobs, say we haven't been looking hard enough... blah blah blah. Then his dad told him that he has a history with toxic women, and I'm bringing him down, and I'm no good for him. That I'm holding him back. That he wasn't what they expected when he came home from the Marines. He stood up for me, which made me happy, I guess. Told them that he didn't think I was toxic, and he was the first girl that he see as a wife, as opposed to a 'first' wife. He said he loved me, and I was sticking around. They said that they won't give us rent or power money, and we can't move in with them if we get kicked out. A lot of this, though, is because of his sister, who, even though I love her to death, really, really screwed up. She got married to a complete... you know what... and he wanted her barefoot a pregnant. She is 25, and has three kids, all, like, exactly 18 months apart. Then, she divorced him, and they are battling in court for custody and child support. After she left him, her and the kids moved into her parent's house, and didn't help with the rent or food or bills or anything. Now, she has a new boyfriend, and her and the kids live with him. But, her parents are still paying her car payments and insurance and everything because she got fired from her last job. So, this all really sucks for Jay, because they see him doing the same thing, apparently. Plus, Jay has NEVER had another serious relationship other than me, and he only had one other girlfriend, and that didn't end well. Plus, the girl he first loved, she used him and used him and broke his heart. Then, he moved to Atlanta with his best friend, and she screwed him over. Then, when he and I broke up, then had problems, then he kicked me out... but we learned, we made the mistakes that we needed to in order to really understand what we wanted from each other, then Jay realized that he only left me and kicked me out because he was scared, of not being single- but, he didn't want to be single. He wanted me, to be with me forever. So... his parents just see me as the next in a long line of users and abusers. I just don't know what to do. Rent is due, power is due.... ::screams:: Ok, just needed to get that out... thanks for listening guys.

Good for him for standing up for you! You should never be judged so harshly because of what happened to his sister and neither should he. Have faith that SOMETHING good will come from all of this.

Hang on to each other, when you get through this you will be the stronger for it. I've got some bad feelings for his folks right now. In these times we should all be helping each other out. Family most importantly. Got my fingers crossed for you about the new jobs.
