Stress!

MLincoln17 · January 2012

Okay, so on top of trying to plan for our wedding, I cannot find a teaching job anywhere and am taking a test tomorow to get other teacher certifications to try to broaden my horizons. I graduated in 2009 and still have yet to find a teaching job in NJ. On top of that, I just found out last night we are going to dinner with my FI's family at a place where one of the crazy girls he dated is a waitress...I want to go because I like going to dinner with his fam, but I have been a wreck all day worrying about this...why?!?!?!? and what would you do if you were me? I know I have the ring, so I should not worry. It is just an uncomfortable position to be in and when I said I was going to stay home, my fiance kinda got upset with me...

PS...Do not understand why this went under customs and traditions...my work computer sucks!

Sorry about the job. That stinks. Can you do volunteer work at a place that might later offer you part-time or a full job?

Why would you skip dinner? i don't understand. So what if his ex *might* be the waitress? Do you think she will spit in your food or something?

No she is a tad nasty. I used to work there with her, and she def has a way of making you feel uncomfortable. She is likes to stare and snicker and make faces and noises when she walks past...It is just uncomfortable to have someone stare at you while you are trying to eat and enjoy yourself

That and she is like the fifth girl I have had to deal with since we have been together. Once we became official, his exes started pouring out of the woodwork. Calling him, texting him, seding private messages on facebook. I have nothing to worry about with him because he fills me in on all of this and does not respond, I just want to know when this is going to stop...Every few months I feel like I have to be subjected to another ex...It is just very uncomfortable...

Every time she does that kiss your FI. Or rub his back. Or his arm. Or smile at him. Seeing how much in love you two are will shut her up.

Has your FI responded "Please stop texting/calling/etc me"? If they refuse to stop, then he should block them. You need to tell him this bothers you and he should resolve this asap.

MLincoln17 · January 2012

He did tell his one ex who was persistant about seeing him that he is happy and in a relationship and when she wouldn't let up, he just ignored her and she finally stopped. I just need to get away from the exes! lol

I feel you with the teaching job.
I was working in MI last year, got laid off (which wasn't the end of the world because I was planning on moving to OH to live with FI--but it still sucked). I had to take a bunch of new certification tests and pay lots of money to get my OH license and still nothing yet. I've been subbing in 6 districts around here, hopefully if something opens up it will give me a bit of an advantage. Subbing is a good way to keep up your skills, make some money and getting your foot in the door.

As far as FI's ex...she might not even be working. Please don't worry about her. She's an ex for a reason. Just enjoy yourself. Your FI doesn't seem to think it is a big deal so don't let it be a big deal for you.

This. And make sure your ring is in full view when you do it ;)
