Worried About My Friends
Posted: 10-09-04 14:48pm

Ok heres the situation. My friend lizzy shes 21 too, has a little girl called alice whose 4, shes only had one boyfriend and has been single for the past 3 years. So when her new boyfriend came along about 7 months ago, I was really happy for her. Even though he was from england, but he promised to come and see her all the time. Then after a few times of him being up here and then her going down. She didnt meet his family, even though he lived with them! I thought that was weird and I told her! Anyway she put herself through college and was goign to start university last week. Her mum and dad have been supporting her, they bought her a house and a car. She is financially dependant on them!! Anyway I called her last night and suprise and suprise shes isnt goign to university and her house is up for sale and shes using the money to move hundreds of miles away to live with some guy shes only spent the odd week and weeked with for the past 8 months. And shes taking alice too, even though she has just started nursery and will be going to school next year! Shes fallen out with me because I called her a stupid fool. Do you girls think I was wrong! I dont want to see my friend make a huge mistake and I dont want her to drag alice down with her. Not only that she hasent told ali's dad who moved up from england to be near her! I am soo upset because she fell pregnant at 17 to a boy from england who came up and visted her and they got engaged and it wasent till the moved in to her parents house she decided she didnt want him anymore. I am so worried about alice!!


Sorry for the rant I just had her mum crying down the phone to me, I dont know wat I can do!!

I know I do think shes selfish sometimes, but I have known her since I was 10 so thats a good eleven years we are like sisters!!

I agree! However, the more you and your mom push her to stay the more she'll want to leave. I would just tell her how you feel and leave it at that. Hopefully she'll figure out what she's doing isn't smart.

Surely if her parents bought the house it is theirs and she has no right to sell it Question
maybe her parents can stop that going through, and then she will realise how dependent she is and that she can't afford to do this.

Her parents will let her pay of the mortgage and whatever profit she makes on it she can keep, I dont understand why they are letting her do it either! I mean she is moving to noriwch I can imagine that being sooo expensive!! She is an ass! Im really angry at her for being such a spoilt brat

Stupid girl! She should know better than to do that. Suzi, huni. You did what you could. Don't beat yourself up. She's going to do what she wants to do wether you agree or not. Tell her what you think and your reasoning.... But it's all you can do.
You are a good friend!
Love,
chanda

I honestly think this is an issue of not having her priorities in order. She's thinking irrationally based on her feelings for this guy, when in reality she needs to be thinking what's in the best interests of alice and the best interests for her future. If you ask me, she needs to get her priorities in line. You don't just up and move your whole life and your family for a man you hardly know anything about. Just my opinion...

Nope the closest i've been is up to ayr or sleaford, not sure which is furthest north.
Himself sometimes goes to glasgow for a week for work if they are short on engineers up there.

Mind you, I upped sticks and left for great yarmouth (8 hours by train or coach) for some guy. Then again I was having parent trouble and it took them 3 days to notice I wasn't there - took a lot for me to forgive that I can tell you.

Plus when I was 13 I used to go and stay in essex with this guy I met at butlins, told my parents I was staying at a friends house Rolling Eyes only got caught when a friend phoned me while I was there and we were talking about school when he came in - he thought I was 18 Embarassed he was 24!

I told you guys that i've been a bad girl. However I am totally reformed now Wink

She is just a little selfish and stupid sometimes. Everything goes out the window. But I can see where she is coming from. She does need to be more independant of her parents considering she is one herself! A degree isnt the most important thing in the world and she is lonely, I know she just sits night after night on her own in the house and she keeps alice up till after 10 for company now. Nick has come along and to her he's prince charming and I can with so many things it's always the people on the outside that can see the problems!
But on the other hand her parents arent short of a few bob and she is kept in a nice style. I dont whether she thinks life is like that! She is so sheltered! Ya know what I hope they do get up and sell their house, they need their own life too. Sooner they get rid of selfish cow the better it's just alice im worried for! By the way I called her a selfish cow to her face thats why we fell out ha ha but we are ok now I told her I hadent changed my mind but I will her friend no matter what.

They are like my 2nd mum and dad. She treats them like there public enemy number one!
