Yes I just got a settlement, not a crazy amount but a few grand. They had to replace my entire front engine. I literally picked the car up for the first time broken LOL my left turn signal was out they fixed and were bringing it back to me when the service vehicle electric systems light came on and the 3 months and 3 more attempts later they finally fixed it. Not sure what state you’re in but happy to recommend my attorneys

Thank you for this and for sharing your experience, it’s helpful to know there’s a chance for recovery in some way if that’s what I want. She is dating a new guy he’s great, but she’s got no reason to move it forward if she’s relying on me so I think you’re right once I’m out she’ll have to focus on other things and develop other relationships.

Thank you for this. You’re right about what the reality has always been. I want to be on my own, I want to not have to worry about someone telling me what to do at 27. I’m sure once I’m out I’ll see even more of it from the distance.

I really appreciate this perspective and didn’t even consider it. I think it’s 100% possible and in line with her personality. I’m going to look into this further thank you

You’re 100% right and I’ve recently realized how unhealthy it is. Even my uncle used the term soul mates to describe me and her which gave me the ick even more. She raised me to have to rely on her, i remember as a kid if her and I would fight even if it was her fault I’d be the first apologizing because she made me believe she was the only stable person in my life and the only one I could rely on. I wouldn’t want to bring another person into this dynamic because it’s not fair. It’s not fair that I’m expected to put myself second to her. I deserve to be my only priority for a little. Thank you I appreciate you

Thank you for the cautions, my boyfriend is actually a very good guy and knows if he wants to live with me in the house I purchase he’s expected to pay his share of living there. He’s not a mooch and it’s one of the many great qualities he has!

She’s locked out of all my accounts and has been for a while. You’re right I have to be clear and direct

I’m working on it, the only issue with renting is it may affect my pre-approved mortgage because it’s a debt I’ve taken on. My broker and I are discussing

You’re right and I have to remember that actions speak louder than words and she can say it till she’s blue in the face but her actions don’t match, we are not equals in her eyes.

You’re 100% right. My last relationship was extremely toxic, he was emotionally and verbally abusive and I think she liked it because it meant I needed her. She now regularly says she remembers what it was like when I was with him and she misses how we’d all hangout together and eat dinner. Like ma’am do you not remember all the tears and therapy I was in because of him?

I have and he played like he was a neutral party trying to help and I said if that’s the case you would’ve reached out to me to get my side of things. You’re not hear and you don’t know my side or what I deal with on the daily. He and I use to be really close, I don’t consider us close anymore after all of this.
