Well, wouldn't you know it.. another Christmas break, another trip up to her dads, and the same bullsh!t as always. 🙁

At least this time its due to the weather. Anyway..

The weather in the pacific northwest has not been cooperating. She was supposed to come home last weekend, but that did not happen.. and then this storm hit.

The temperatures are supposed to rise considerably everywhere but the East Portland area tomorrow. The roads should not be a problem outside of Portland, so my brother and I were going take the trip and pick her up.

I just got off the phone with her a little while ago.. and her response was that can't happen because she has plans.

It just made me all upset, and I couldn't talk to her like I should've been able to. She needs to realize that school, her BC pills and her court date are more important than her plans. :|

But whatever.. I can't grab her arm and make her come home, it is just so frustrating.

:frown:

She's going to call the court and tell them she can't be there on Friday.. I really hope that is OK.. anybody have advice on that? How do they handle stuff like that? Is it OK to reschedule, or is she going to be in trouble?
 
You can't just reschedule a court date... it doesn't work that way. This girl sounds like she's hiding something, or is a psycho. Thats just IMHO.

Might want to tell us who you're talking about 😉.

His GF?

some people on here havent been introduced to the concept of a girlfriend yet 🙂

Well when you skim something and only come up with "she" and "her" it's just a little hazy. Sounded more like a sister from what I read.

She's probably going to Fred Meyer.

Zing!😀 That was pretty low tho Viper😉
Shrug.. It made me laugh at least.. 😛

She just has plans.. see one of her old friends, visit her old school, and visit with her dad some more..

I just wish she could realize that her plans are not as important as she thinks they are... it's just because she got her head set that she was going to stay up there for another week, and she doesen't want to give I guess.

I need some advice on the court date thing though, if she can't get out of missing it I need to tell her, because it will be too late to get her by the time she calls and finds out on her own tomorrow.

I guess I don't know what to do. One part of me wants to call her back and be like, "Look.. you can come back and visit your friends this summer, right now you have school and a court date to worry about".

I'm such an avoider of conflict though, I break down before I get to the point where I'm stern like that, & thats what happened earlier.

Further, I shouldn't have to be like that in the first place.... I'm her boyfriend, not her mom..

Is she not allowed to make her own plans?
No.. that isn't the issue.

The issue is that she has responsibilities down here, and is relyant on other people for transportation currently.

If this is true.. she needs to know NOW. Can anybody else confirm?

She isn't hiding anything.. I know it sounds like that, because I haven't given you anywhere near the whole story..

It's perfectly normal(for her), it just frustrates me to no end.

She is younger than me, and because of that I have to bear with her while she learns responsibility.
 
Well, I think court dates can be moved, but I think for fairly serious reasons (death, dismemberment, plague, etc.), not just needing more time to visit w/friends & family..

lol.. Yeah, I know...... the weather will not be bad anymore mid week, so she won't have an excuse....

hmm.
 
a quick search on google shows that most courts need a written letter explaining why you need to reschedule and what dates will work for you.

Also, you need to have the letter into them at least a week before (though that seems to vary quite a bit) your actual court date.
 
The court wont think very highly of having to postpone. And thats if they even allow it. They may count her as a no show and put a warrant out for her.
 
I remember you having a thread like this before. Court rules all unless they have some weather claus or something.
