So it's her 14th birthday and she usually has a bunch of friends overnight. Remainder of story snipped My first reaction was to smile, sorry and all that but it's best to be honest right? I think it's because I can remember trying very much the same sort of thing at a similar age so on the bright side it seems her hormones are working fine anyway. ;-) More seriously, she's most definitely abused the trust you put in her and that, to my mind, is more of an issue than exactly what she did. I hope you've explained to her, fully and at great length, how precious trust is, how long it takes to build and how easy it is to destroy. She needs to know, though, that the only one who is ultimately affected by the decisions she makes is herself. If she does things that eventually undermine her own self-worth she'll be the main one to suffer. On this occasion you seem to have been in the right place at the right time but you won't always be. She needs to understand this or she'll probably end up just being more careful that you don't find out what she's up to next time which would, IMHO, be a worse situation. OMG. We had the *exact* same reaction. I could have written this post. Soul mates? smooch ;-) Heh. How are you with seafood? Paul, are you my evil twin? I have a somewhat "hazy" lineage so anything is possible but I'm not the evil one. (s******) [evil cackle] Or me...... LMAO Phew! Oh and sorry for the delay in replying. Life has been even more hectic than usual here recently. Luckily (no, really) one of my jobs came to an end today so I'll have a little more time to myself. I'm about to have lots of time too. T's going into hospital for the summer, D's moving out with M to their own place and I'm about to be laid off. Too bad you aren't a little closer. I'd invite myself sailing. LOL Cele |

How do you feel about it? Neither of the other things sounds like good news though. Should I know about them? Hope everything works out. Too bad you aren't a little closer. That's certainly true. I'd invite myself sailing. LOL It would give me a reason to get the boat in shape. Don't ask. -- Paul Griffiths |

(Should have responded in the other thread, but I thought I'd save time. :P It's a good thing. The job didn't pay well and cost me a lot in time and fuel to get there so the extra free time is worth the small loss in income. I'd invite myself sailing. LOL It would give me a reason to get the boat in shape. Don't ask. Why do I feel the need to ask all the unaskable questions this morning? Hmmm. Dunno, just one of *those* days I suppose. It's basically been sitting in the marina for the last year or so as I haven't had the time and the money at the same time to fix it up. Hopefully now I will. -- Paul Griffiths |
