Is it me, or are my parents tripping? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Janice Johnson · 12-18-2007, 12:12 PM

My sisters are both minors, and already lost their virginities.................. My youngest sister lost her virginity at 12.

They have both ran away from home and have done drugs. One of them got our dad put in jail. They are the kind of kids you see on Maury's "Wild Teen Girls!"

Well, my parents got upset because I kissed my boyfriend, Mark. I'm 23 years old and am still a virgin, and they got upset for me just kissing? while my two younger sisters have been having a wild time?

Probably because they figure you'll follow in their footsteps. They probably feel a bit guilty for letting your younger sisters go wild and don't want you to go the way they have - only problem, is that now they're working backwards.

I think at 23 you're old enough to make your own decisions. Tell them they're just a little late on the good parenting skills.

And you're NOT still with that clown are you? Maybe they're not so upset about you kissing a guy as they are THAT PARTICULAR guy!

Yeah, I'm still with him.

He's a great guy, and I believe that he no longer frauds banks. He said, 'Frauding the bank was the worst mistake of my life."

Well, at 23 I think your parents need to start taking care of the minors in the family. They need to treat you like an adult and let you go, and make your own decisions. Like one poster said, it sounds like they are a little (or very) late on the parenting skills. If your parents know about the fraud business and all they could be pretty skeptical of you kissing him then. But if you are over 18, they really can't tell you who you can and can't be with. They may submit opinions but that is it. And your parents need to learn that just because an adult is a non-virgin, does not make them a bad person.

Most great guys don't defraud banks.

Ok. This really pisses me off! How is it that a woman could fall so head over heals for a guy who has done dishonest things?

Taking it further(I know mark hasn't done these things), how is it a woman can stay with a man who belittles her, beats her, demeans her, disrespects her embarrasses her???

How is it, there are women who will follow these me into hell without question... and I can't even get a date???

What do these sob men have that I don't have? What did they do that I haven't? Why do they even have women????

Like I said. It pisses me off.

Ya gotta buy a leather biker jacket and become "The Bad Boy" a la Tommy Lee. To complete the ensemble, don't forget the white "wife beater" shirt and those pipe pants, belted and drooping to the back of your knee.
Apparently that is very appealing to some chicks. Only thing is that you probably don't want those chicks because they have major issues of their own - starting with extremely low self-esteem.

Uh, June my parents didn't even know that Mark was a fraud when they found out about me kissing him. They still don't. So that couldn't be the reason they got upset.

Sara Micelli · 12-19-2007, 10:35 PM

Why are you still with this guy? Do you really believe his obvious line about how frauding the bank was the worst mistake of his life?

I remember a similar thread the day I joined... something about parents getting mad about being in the bathtub too long - maybe I'm losing it.
