I'M LEAVING CB AND NOW THIS??!!!, ARRGGHH!!! Options

Talk about bad timing. As you can see in the signature, I'm leaving Createblog for a while.

Well, I'm sure you all know I am engaged. What you probably don't know is that my fiance is 18 years older than me. (I'm 17 years old.) Of course, my friends have accepted it, he really is a wonderful guy and I've been dating him for about 2 years, and Geena adores him to death, it's just that my family doesn't know how old he is yet.

Most of you know that I had Geena when I was just 13, by another man - the man responsible for me leaving CB ( ) - and when I had her, my family basically disowned me. I haven't talked to them since.

BUT....

This morning, guess who calls? My parents. They heard I was getting married, blah blah.

They complained that I have been ignoring them, and why should I? I mean, they only ditched me to be on my own, carrying a baby for 9 months, with no money. [/end sarcasm]

But since they are family, and I haven't seen/talked to them in almost 5 years, I decided to let them meet my fiance. The only thing is, I'm worried what they'll think about him. I mean, as previously stated, he is a GREAT guy and I know because Geena is in love with him ( ), but my family just won't understand.

They still are criticizing, rude and ashamed about me having Gee, but of course, they're family and I admit that I miss them. Sort of.

John (my fiance) is pretty excited to meet them, even though he thinks he knows that I'm uncomfortable about it. He just thinks I'm uncomfortable because I haven't seen them in a while.

I'm really worried about how my family will talk (trust me, gossip in my family gets around, really fast), they'll think that I'm a slut or something, because my fiance and me have such a huge age difference.

I know I shouldn't care, but this is my FAMILY and I don't want them to judge.


If any mod feels this shouldn't be in the Relationship forum, please move it.

i think the reason they called is because they want to reconcilliate with you. they'll get shocked when they see him, but they will have to accept it, and they are going to talk themselves into it.

Best luck to you
