THAT (the OP) was written by a 30 year old? Og help our educational system!
Okay I tried to read this again.
I don’t get the two dad thing at all.
Laura’s mother tells Laura to tell Myra that her dad said “Hi”. When the girls get into the bedroom Laura tells her that her father said “Hi”. Myra in turn opens the door of her bedroom to say Hi, I assume she thought her dad was right outside her room.
At this point Laura tells Myra “No not that dad your other dad”. Then Myra asks what other dad? Then Myra proceeds to ask Laura how she new about her other dad and she says she didn’t know that her mother knew.
Okay I think that is as clear as I can get it and it still makes no sense what so ever why Myra would have gotten upset at Laura for thinking she knew about some other dad.
Now my head hurts
Maybe Laura was inadvertantly let in on the big secret that the man that Myra called “dad” was not her real father. Myra was upset that Laura found out.
I read this before work. It’s not a joke? I honestly thought it was someone making fun of how they thought teenagers wrote.
No doubt. laura41378, where do you live? Your local community action office might be able to hook you up with adult basic education courses. When I worked for a director of a local office in 2000, the classes were free (at least for people who didn’t graduate from high school or have a g.e.d. yet. I’m not sure if others were eligible.) It might be worth checking out.
My friend Mrya I met her in the 5th grade.
We were best friends then.
One day I went to her house for a sleepover. My mom told me to tell her that her real dad said hi.
When I told her that her dad said hi, She thought I was talking about her mother’s husband all her life she thought that guy was her father.
I said no its your real dad.
She got mad at me because she thought i knew all along that I knew her real father and she didn’t.
That week she ran away.
I found out months later she moved in with her real dad.
When I thought I found her again she got put into foster care.
and I didn’t get to see her again till i was 17.
But we only got to talk outside for 10 minutes then she disapeared again.
I called her mother’s house one day when I was about 23.
I only got to talk to her for a few minutes and we lost contact again.
Years later just curious I found her sister online.
Thats how i found her again
We talked on the yahoo messanger
I was soo happy to talk to her again
but when she said she had to go I started crying
It’s not fair because It’s always like this everytime I think I found her she has to go.
ps I got advice alright
I sound like a caveman when i don’t use punctuation :smack: :o
I realize from re reading my post I sounded like a drunken monkey on crack
and the bad thing is I write to everyone like that and it makes me sound so stupid
So did your mom have no idea that she didn’t know? It just seems kind of bizarre that she’d say that out of the blue, about her “real dad.” Or really insensitive…
All the more reason to stick around here.
Read some posts, argue a bit, laugh a bit and share nice recipies for fudge.
at 1 point i used 2 type in Y shorthand with no punctuation it was a bad habit i had gotten n2 it made for ez iming but i new it was bad
Folks 'round here will not hesitate to call you on it and, as you have seen, can be quite rabid. Once the new habit sets in it enhances your communication skills and great things are bound to happen.
For example, I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance!!!
I’m just guessing, since IANAPI, but I’d say, Orlando FL.
Am I right, Laura?
Yes, it does stink when a friend gets sketchy and you don’t hear from them for years. I’ve had the same thing happen to me, and I find the best way to deal with it is to enjoy the times that you do have to talk.
Every six months or so, I get a call from my best friend from high school, and we chat for and hour or two. I’ve known him since 5th grade (I’m now gasp 33), and it’s nice to be able to play catch-up in each other’s lives every once in a while. Just because the two of you don’t hang out every day, doesn’t mean you’re not still best friends. Comprende?
So, hang in there. You’ll work it out eventually.
