Whey2Big4u Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 for those who had their second chance.....what does the family think? Both sides the dumpee and the dumper. And if you where the dumper, did the family of the dumpee say anything to you? I was with my family last night for the the holidays and was wondering what if i had my second chace? what would my family say or do knowing what i went through?
Melrapuo Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 My family would tell me I'm stupid. And I think her family would be happy. But, then again, who knows.
stefspets Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 My family, being the accepting, nice people that they are, just said "ok, do what you want, we just want you to be happy." My ex's mom told me "I know you don't want to be with my son. You don't have to." I thought that was rude and made me dislike her even more. Just added to the list of reasons why things wouldn't work, and we did end up breaking up again, for good. If you broke up for good reason, chances are that "second chance" will have the same fate as the first, but with even more pain and bad feelings.
BCCA Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Her parents loved the idea of us getting back together, wanted to make sure she had someone who would take care of her, etc. My family, on the other hand, thought she was a witch, but were willing to deal as long as I was happy. They never really warmed up to her again.
riotgrrl Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 well this weekend my boyfriends parents told him that when i move back he probably wont be allowed back at their house..im defintely not allowed there haha his mom left a nasty voicemail on his cell calling me a con artist, a bitch, etc etc.. and his brother may or may not move out of the house we all lived in before the seperation when i move back in later this week my family is apprehensive but want me to do what i need to do to make myself happy.. overall its a win win situation i edit to say that if for whatever reason i am back allowed in their house i will no longer hold my tongue when his mother is being a bitch to my boyfriend - i did that for six years and will no longer tolerate it. i grew balls when we seperated and im not afraid to use them..
Crazy.S Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 i know her family likes me, heck i was part of there family for 4 years. so i know they would be happy. my family on the other hand saw how much pain i went through and my changes. i dont think they will be happy about a 2nd chance but i think they would let me do whatever i wanted. though i dont think they can fully accept my ex after dumping me
Deegee Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 My family would not be happy about it (they were the one's left to pick me up when the s$%t hit the fan...), and would not have a problem with letting me know what a bad idea it would be. It's funny to me, that I'm really starting to believe that second chances are probably NOT a good idea. (For me anyway...) I' d always be in a state of fear, "when's he gonna decide to leave me again, what have I done to have this happen? Am I not pretty enough, good enough, smart enough???!!" Bleh! And bump that! If he can't see what a prize I am then too bad!
