On second thought, I would dump the chick and her entire messed-up family.

If they are OK with him being such a stupid ass to you now as her boyfriend just wait until you are actually part of the family. :shocked:

Jerry Springer Special Edition indeed. :laugh:

I sense many problems similar to this in the future if you stay with this chick, not that you should break up with her or anything.

Umm... Can I ask why you are dating someone so young? You were 19 when she was 10. Ick.

Sounds like he hasn't learned from his ascenine behavior before, and the only way to deal with people like that are to hold them accountable.

I am in support of you and your girl.

That is STUPID behavior.

I think you already know what you should do, and I'm willing to bet you're just here to get compliments... ;P

35 replies and no "pics" - guess there really is something about strange things happening on Friday the 13th. :D

I think you both did the right thing.

the wrong thing is accepting that type of behavior.

Yeah, so what? He's no longer 19, and she's no longer 10.

Dude, you're looking to the wrong place for forgiveness. Deep down you know whether or not you did the right thing. You want us to tell you something you already know.

The very fact that you're posting here is telling me that you're not comfortable with it.

Listen to your gut - it's never wrong.

I completely AGREE!

I didn't like her brother when he came up from Colorado a few months ago, it was just a gut instinct.

I was always nice to him and her family and generally he was fine, until he drinks. I found out he'd been in jail for assulting police when he was drunk, all kinds of stuff.

My gut tells me to prosecute him and make him pay for his actions.

That's what will happen.

So long as your comfortable with the fact that this is a path there is no coming back from.

If the guy apologizes and changes his ways, there is always a path.

I wouldn't drop the charges unless he paid to fix whatever he broke. If he did that, then I really wouldn't care.

Yeah, because he was going out with her when she was 10. :roll:

Anyway, I think you did what's best, OP. If you put violence into that situation, worse things would've happened.
