It has been way too long since I blogged anything, anywhere and life has definitely been happening. I didn't want to post about this before, was afraid of upsetting people, one at least that I really care about.
Couple weeks ago my oldest son was given a medical discharge from the Navy, he was really upset by this. He had his life figured out for the next 5 years and now, nothing. It was hard on him, this thing happening, but I think it would have gone so much easier if he didn't have to face another big let down immediately after that happened.
He was engaged to be married and apparently the moment the fiance found out he wasn't going to be in the military for the next 5 years, she dumped him cold. Didn't want to marry him, didn't want anything to do with him anymore. It was painful what she did to him, he was home back in CA less than an hour and we(his family) had to go pick up him and his belongings. This stupid chick wasted NO TIME breaking his heart. So he lives with me again now....yes it is an extra burden while he is still unemployed and looking for work, but really, I love having him home again now.
This ex of his was sooo shallow, I had never met a person like her before, and hope I don't ever again.
I think everyone but my son knew the kind of gal she was, but he knows now. I'm proud of the way he is picking himself up and moving on with his life without her now.
And for me, its been great having him in my life again, without someone else telling him what he can and cannot do all the time. What he didn't see is that if someone really loves you, they respect your choices too and you don't have to only do what they want to do. I'm hoping he has been able to clear his head enough now that when a new relationship comes along, he won't just disappear on us again.
I don't know what his future holds but I am hoping he learned enough from this stupid bitch to not ever fall into that kind of trap again.
As for her, I think she will always be out to gain something from someone, she does not seem to understand what love really is, and probably never will.
And so, on ward, we have the holidays coming up and it will definitely be different than it was last year. But I think it will be fun.
