Nope as long as they can prove they are married she is considered 21!!! And I do have a problem with my son bein around him and her...but the DA says there hasn't been anything happen and I can't do anything unless I want total custody...but I want his grandparents to still get to be with him....

Sounds kinda backwards to me. and if he is so abusive, I would be really nervous having my kid around him PERIOD. Amazes me that this kind of law enforcement still goes on in this country, that kind of stuff just doen't happen up this wya much, i'm sure there are a few instances, but jsut cuz your married doesn't make you 21. ya know. yikes. the law is still the law, and when someone is putting anyone's life in danger (especially a child) the cops and judges have a responsiblity to take care of that problem, that is their job!

Ok heres the deal with the cops...we live in Jefferson County...not even a mile down the road it changes to Chambers County....when we call the cops they can't do anything cause he goes back to Chambers County...but now the good thing is...my friend's dad is now the Judge of Chambers County and he will crack down on him...plus my Uncle (who happened to marry him and his "wife") is the Judge in Jefferson County...all I have to do is call and make sure he stays in one spot long enough...the last time I called the cops they swited drivers when they saw the cops comin....he set the cruise control and she climbed over him...how do I know...my friend (his best friend) told me!!!! Then they hide the beer....she normally is drinkin too...but she is fixin to be 20 and they are married so the cops don't care that she is drinkin underage!!!!! I live in a small town and we have several backward cops...only a few are good....couple I'm glad I'm kin to!!! They just always find a way to get around the law!!!!!

As someone who was with a "control freak" for almost 20 years my advice to you is GET OUT NOW! Before he makes any more demands, before you do anything legally binding like getting married. I started seeing my ex-husband when I was 15 years old. He didn't like my friends, he didn't like that I went out for sports (too much time away from him) etc., etc., etc. Long story short, I ended up marrying him when I was 20 and by the time I divorced him 13 years later (only 3 short years ago) I no longer had any friends that he didn't approve of, I had quit college (too much $ that he didn't want to spend and too much time away from his watchful eye) and financially he had ruined us so I wasn't able to stand on my own two feet. I finally got a clue when he became physically abusive (he was always mentally and emotionally abusive) and I left him. Even after that he would stalk me and follow me around town at all hours of the day and night.

What I'm trying to say is someone who is already putting these kinds of demands on you will only get worse as time goes on. He may have very valid reasons for not wanting the tattoo or the cat but those are relatively small decisions that he is already denying you the right to make. What will it be like years from now when you're trying to raise children or buy a house...

As far as the eating disorder, I do believe it is a disease that needs constant attention before people are able to get better. The fact that he doesn't seem too supportive now doesn't say a lot for his willingness to stand by you "for better or worse, in sickness and in health." And as I'm sure you're aware, stress like this can easily be a trigger that could send you back into relapse.

I hope I didn't come off sounding too harsh or judgemental because that was not my intent. Your post just hit a lot of hot button topics for me and I would hate to see another person go through that.

I thought I was in love too, but what I now realize is that it was just easier to stay than to stand up and be my own person.

Good luck to you.

Im 19 years old. My boyfriend of three years and I moved in together about a year ago. I have been struggling with an eating disorder for about 4 years not and was recently hospitalized. After I returned home, I had a minor relapse and came home one day to find all of my stuff packed in garbage bags. My boyfrined kicked me out of the house for two days only letting me return if I swore to stop my eating disorder. Thing is,that isnt something you can just stop. It is a disease. He doesnt understand that. He told me If I were to go back to my old ways he would leave me. Anyway, Im young and I want so badly to be on my own and do what I want to do while im young. He will not allow me to get a tatoo, though I really want one, he wont let me get a cat, though I really want one. I just dont know what to do, I love him so much but I really want to be independant and do my own thing, but its not possible with him. what should I do?? any suggestions?
