Hi everyone. I love to read your stories, but I am in a very tuff situation.
I got merried this last Feb. and the 18th of this month i will be getting a deavorce.
I'm 18 years old and this is my last year of high school. The problem is that i want to get back with him but my pearents are overprotective. I have tried to explane to them that i still love him, but they don't think he will chaneg. All of my American friends tell me that hispanics are stupid and that it is expected that we get merried at a young age. I don't know what to do please help.
Hey Girly,
Personally i think that americans stereo type hispanics and u should
just go with ur heart. Wether ur parents like it or not. If u really
love him them tell him u still love him and that the only way u can be
with him is if he straightens up.Cuz i don't know how he treats u but
if he treats you badly then u need to tell him that he needs to
straightin up and treat u right. But honestly i think u should just go
with ur heart.
Bye girly

First of all, you have your stereotypes all wrong. Hispanics are the ones who will do all the jobs white people don't want. I forget who it is who is always married at a young age....maybe Puerto Ricans or something. I can't really tell because Comedy Central hasn't given a Puerto Rican guy his own show yet.
I think you should wait until you are older to get married. It's pretty early in high school to know what is right I think.
Being married at 18 is way too young in my opinion. I got married at 24 and sometimes I think I was too young..maybe I should have waited till 25 but everything worked out okay.
I highly doubt that all of your friends are thinking that. I'm sure it is hard for them to adjust to you being back. As for your man, your have to think really hard. Did he treat you right? Was he good to you? That is what you have to figure out before you go back. My suggestion would be finish high school because if he truly cares about you he will wait and he will understand. Plus he should respect your choices. Sometimes the most important decisions in our lives are the most diffucult to make. If you truly care about him than your friends would understand that but you have to relize that they are looking out for you because they don't want you to get hurt.
