    Hmm... While my ex was driving my trunk, he said that someone 'stole' it, but actually he sold it for dope $$!

    i was deceived by one of my close friends regarding her relationship with my ex-boyfriend. what was worse is that she was the person i continually turned to talk about how hard it was for me during/after the break up.

    good news...we're on the road to recovery. but that's a slow process.

    20 years after my father died of cancer, my mother told me that the middle name I've gone by my whole life was that of the male half of a couple they used to "swing" with, and that he might actually be my father...

    I can look at photographs of myself and Dad, or my sons and Dad, and know that she was lying, but deep down there is still that question. I seriously considered changing my name; it actually made me physically ill to hear it for a few days before I "got control of myself". I still have a hard time dealing with her at times...

    When I was a teen, I was told by my parents that they had my religious best interest in mind, but they ended up trying to dictate the choices regarding faith and church. They eventually tried to drag me into going to a very manipulative, un-fundamental church. By this time, I was old enough, so I moved out on my own.

    "I'll love you no matter what" by my dad. He disowned me for a year and forbid me to speak to my (much younger) siblings because I defied him and wouldn't go to church when he told me to.

    My siblings and I are all close now and none of us have a relationship with him. Guess that tactic backfired!
