Wedding is Off! Very Long!!

Okay I am home and ready to spill. As most of you are aware of the fighting and everything from the other day, PF (past fiance) agreed to get the apartment b/c he wanted to stay together and knew that moving in and proving he is mature enough to take care of is was one of the conditions of us staying together. We also discussed things, about the threating, no more of that, and things that bothered me and things like that but most importantly no more throwing in my face that he has to pay for everything and I don't pay for anything an how useless I am.

Well since he agreed which was only on thursday night, friday came along and instead of wanting to see me since we haven't seen each other in a week, he wanted to hang out with his friends, well I told him how messed up that is and to make a long story short he did come over b/c I started *****ing about the maturity thing again and to basically shut me up he gave in but the point that the first place he would want to be the day we made up wasn't here was screwed up.

Okay so since then we have gotten along, the whole 1 1/2. Welll today we went to the city to see the car show at the javitts center, it was going good for a while until he started *****ing about the money thing again which in then started to **** me off so I told him to drop it before it turns into a fight. Yeah right, he started with the threats again about if you don't give up all this stupid **** for the wedding then we aren't getting an apartment, or if you don't help with the apartment money then forget it. So I told him like always he agreed to get the apartment to shut me up and make up the other day but had know plans on sticking to it, like he always does.

Then the famous words, well if this isn't gonna work then give me my ring back. Now he knew I only had a few dollars on me so he said I owe him the money for my train ticket and the admission into the show and the taxi. Then he said I hope your few dollars gets you home on the train. He had our r/t tickets but was being spiteful and wouldn't give me mine. So I had to push the stroller, the baby, my pocket book, the diaper bag and the bag of stuff from the car show done track 19 by myself in penn station b/c he walked away, so we sat seperatly not even in the same car on the way home and I had called his mother to make sure she was babysitting tomorrow and she asked where dan was and I said I don't know, so of course she was like your in a fight again. She met us at the train station and he sat there and called me things and said to give him his ring back now and I refused b/c he owes me a couple thousand dollars on my cc.

Well he went in his mothers car and she took him to my house to get his car and he followed me to my door yelling at me to give him the ring, so I slammed the door in his face and he punched my car to get my car alarm to go off.

I had such a headache and this was making things worse so the baby fell asleep and I was going to take a nap and I hear his car, he came back with his mother in his car ringing my door bell calling my phone so I answered it and he said he has his checkbook, he will write a check for the amount he owes me and he wants his ring. We fought back and forth I told him I don't trust him, he will probaly bounce the check cause he would only lose $28 and then I would be out all the money, so then he threatened to call the cops so I said the number is 911 and hung up on him and shut off my phones. After ringing the doorbell a few more times he left.

His mother knows what a a55hole he is and usually takes my side, well I don't know what he said but she was completely on his side about this which isn't like her. We will see if she actually babysits tomorrow.

There is no going back now, he really just sealed the coffin. I just don't know what to do, I know I am so much better off but where do I go from here.

I am so sorry this is so long, but I feel better that I just got this whole story off my chest, even if I typed it and didn't speak.

Im so sorry that you are going through this.. you must feel horrible.. and i dont think anything anyone can say right now will make you feel better, but one thing you should feel better about is that this happened now and not AFTER the wedding. He is obviously not ready for marriage at all and you deserve better than that. If its illegal for you to keep the ring (you need to contact a lawyer) then give it back. But take him to small claims court for the money that he owes you, and also for any deposits or money that you have spent on the wedding...

Im soo sorry, and IMO i think its best for you and your beautiful baby that this happened, its probably for the better..

You are better off without him! You don't want to be with a man who treats you like that especially in front of your child! I know it will be hard but stay strong and come here for support

I am so sorry. I think you did the best you could for your relationship to work out but he didn't really give in any effort. Right now calling it off is probably the best thing you did for you and the baby. Always remember we will be here for you when you need us.

Sounds like you had a very taxing and tramatic day. I'm sorry.

Where do you go from here? Start building your life without him.

Do you have a source of income? Your own job?

Does he pay child support? If not, take appropriate action to secure Kayla's rights to his earnings.

Since he has already offered to pay you the $ he owes you in order to get the ring back, tell him to bring a certified check for the amount that he owes you and make the trade. Get your money and give up the ring so you can really cut all ties and start living your life in a positive fashion.

I'm proud of you. You showed that you love and respect yourself by walking away. That's the first step towards true happiness....

Re: Wedding is Off! Very Long!!

Kayla I am sorry but your ex sounds like a total immature selfish jerk who needs to go play with little boys & girls his age. He is not ready to be with a real woman (YOU!)

I think you are better off staying away from someone who treats you so disrespectfully. He doesn't deserve you!!

If you have to, take him to small claims court for the money he owes you for your credit cards, or get cash, but give him the ring back if this is the law.
Don't keep anything that will make him, make your life miserable anymore than he already has.

I am sorry to say but it sounds to me he isn't a man yet.

We are all here to listen to you and help you however we can.

Meredith, his true feelings really showed today, what kind of man would have let you walk all that way w/o concern for you or his child, then in the same breath he says he loves you. His actions are not one of a mn who is ready for marriage and the responsibilities that goes along with it. Girl I know it might be rough at first but you will make it. He is not worthy of you, not the way he behaved. All that throwing stuff in your face, some men get such joy to do things for their women. Its as if you should be eternally greatful, like he is doing you some kind of favor, you was his Fi soon to be wife. I am truly glad you are out of it. You will be the one better for this in the long run. Let someone else deal with his mess, let's see how far he gets with his never growing up attitude. I wish you all the best./

OMG

He is being a jerk and very immature.

You dont need him. You are a beautiful young lady with so much to offer.

I hope you just take it easy for a few days and relax. If the weather is nice and you have some free time take the baby to the park or zoo. Dont even think about him.

We are all here if you want to talk

I am so sorry you are going through this. But it does sound like you made a wise decision. I have to agree with what someone else said. Tell him to get a certified check or cash that he owes you and make the trade for the ring. And make sure he supports that cutie pie of a daughter of yours.

We are all here for you no matter what you need.... Good luck

I forgot to say under these circumstances, I would say give the ring back so he has no reason to come back around and harass you, but do not give it back until all CC charges has been paid in full. Make sure he pays his CS as well.

Re: Wedding is Off! Very Long!!

I know how much better off i am without him, but I am also so scared to start over. I still feel like he won, he can go out whenever he wants and do whatever he wants and I can't. I am afraid of being alone the rest of my life. I wish this would just go away.

Kayla, your world may seem over now, but it's only beginning, you will have a fresh start in life to better you & your daughter away from him...

I say:
If you play with dirt, you get filthy.

You don't need him!

Re: Wedding is Off! Very Long!!

Meresith, Please don't think that way. It is tough right now.. Give time for yourself as well as time for your little girl. You will find the man of your dreams who will treat you and your daughter with the respect you deserve.... Don't settle for anything less than you deserve!!

Re: Wedding is Off! Very Long!!

Dont be sad. You'll never be alone. You have your family, the baby, us on LIW, and friends.

He didnt win, you did. He lost you. So he's the loser.

You will meet a man who will worship the ground you walk on and treat you like a queen. He'll love you for you and not expect anything but your love back for him.

It's gonna be tough right now, but time does heal all wounds. It's now your time. Its 'Meridith Time'
Do something for you. Take up yoga, maybe if you have the money and time take up a pottery or photography class. Do something for you.

Just take it easy and dont look at the past (him) and look to a beautiful and bright future

Meredith, you will not be alone for the rest of your life, you are young and beautiful. Kayla is just as much his responsibility as it is yours. Work out something with him that he has her sometimes so you can go out and live. I know right now it seem as if there is no hope. Believe me it is always darkest before the dawn. Are you trying to say, he is the only man that will ever want you, come on, now be real. Take the time to work on you, you do not want to rush back in to a relationship with anyone with all the anger and resentment you have pent up from your ex. They say you draw to you what you are letting off. Concentrate on making Meredith happy and take it slow. Love will come.

Meredith,

It is hard for you to realize this now, but you won't be alone for the rest of your life, you have Kayla and your whole life ahead of you. He sounds like he is still very immature. No MAN no matter how angry would not see to his child's needs. How could he just leave you there with the baby to find your way to Penn Station alone.. IDIOT

However you need to make sure Kayla's needs are met, if there is no legal child support and custody agreement I would advise that you get one immediately.

Have him pay you a certified check for the funds that he owes you and give him the ring back.

Take a deep breath and remember you are not alone

Re: Wedding is Off! Very Long!!

Everything that you girls are saying is true, but when it comes down to it I am alone. My mother is menapausing so she is a phscho lately, we haven't been getting along b/c she is a prissy jap and she *****es at eveything my daughter does, my little sister is a 15 year old ***** as well, and my older sister is jealous of my daughter and my engagement so she has alot of bitterness towards me so we aren't getting along either. I know I have my friends and you guys but he was always my escape goat. Nobody ever helps me with my daughter so I can never go out, I just feel like being home 24/7 will never help me find that mr. right. I am sorry I am babling but I can't stop crying.
