I have no place to turn. I am always alone ..I mean I have a lot of friends but I’m not sure they are real friends.

I just wish that sometimes I could be a fly on the wall, but I can’t so it makes me…. uh um…. uncomfortable. I guess.

EXCERPT 2

I have this problem. My family is crazy. My parents are like two big kids. I feel like I always have to tell them what the right thing to do is….. and then they get mad at me. I know I can’t take care of them but it’s like they mess around and are irresponsible and then they want to complain to me about how everyone else is messed up. I feel like when I call them there is always some issue they are not telling me about. Is it me? Am I the one who’s crazy here?

EXCERPT 3

We have been married for just under a year. It is a second marriage for both of us. I have no children and she does and they are grown. Since I have been married I feel like I have to cater to her children. I can respect that I realize she’s their mother but come on already. I don’t want her to fight with her kids but I just can see how they take advantage of her. Then I get dragged into it. It upsets me to watch her give so much and get very little in return.
