So i posted a couple of weeks ago regarding drama with BFs parents & our living situation. Basically, they dont accept us living together before being married (bought our house together in Jan) and BF had had enough of the way they had treated us and pretty much gave them the ultimatum to accept us & the situation, or don't have a relationship with us. I got a fair amount of advice & empathy, so wanted to follow up. (sorry so long!)Shortly after that, his mom called asked me to go to dinner one on one, because she wanted me to hear her side of the story directly from her. It came down to her blaming me for "leading him astray" and "causing him to live in sin" and her then, oddly enough, trying to convince me to go to the JOP and marry him right away. I stayed as calm as humanly possible, explained that that was not going to happen, and since we will probably be disagreeing on things for the rest of our lives together, we might as well agree to disagree. All in all, it went as well as it could.So anyway, the hold up on getting engaged had been b/c BF was layed off. Last week, he got not 1, but 2 job offers, and he starts working again Sept 1!!! Needless to say it is a huge relief and I am so excited for him. So, perhaps we're back on track for a proposal sometime soon...
