Guess he forgot all that he learned while studying for all those doctrates. CVM news said last night that he paid the 15 yo $5k and the 14 yo $3k.

He's not controlling cause he never stopped me from being around my family but if my family has any functions he wouldn't want to go or if they come over he would just stay in the bedroom or go outside....

I'm not really 100% family person but when they have functions i will go or go visit my parents like one day on the weekends or something and i have a twin brother so sometimes he will have dinners over his house and i would go but he would always say he doesn't feel comfortable being around my fam...

A little background: I kinda blame myself because my fam is kinda snottie....my mother thinks if you are not a doctor, lawyer, or haitian, you are nothing...so i just told my husband that my mom is like that but when she does finally get to know you she is a very cool, nice person....and my brother could act pretty snottie too...like he's sh*t don't stink...so i just pre-warning him just in case they do act a way...and pretty much too that our whole marriage thing was a secret until he came up here so i was like they might feel a way about that too....

So he has this in his heart and won't even give them a chance...I tell him that my fam is so over the whole marriage thing especially since now that i am pregnant that he just need to be more social when they are around...I'm not asking him to call or go over the house but when they are around just act a little more sociable....he will say hi but that is about it and will then leave the room...

I just want him to give them a chance... :(

Sorry took so long to post my boss keep coming in my cubicle.... :P

Had to reply to this one…..

I can understand how your hubby might be feeling but mine comes from other end. He tried to fit in and become a part of the family but my mom didn’t like Dwayne even before he got here. He thought he’d be able to win her over once he came. He tried to be polite, calling her mom, and asking how she is doing and what not.

Even when they first met, I thought she liked him (he did the yard work, fixed the porch, and cooked fish – which he burned caused he didn’t know how to use the electric stove) She told my sis a totally different story of all the things he did wrong and that he was the ugliest man she’d ever seen.

Then every time I tried to get us all to spend time together, she’d go ballistic - didn’t want me bringing him around and so forth. She’d say, “can’t I just spend time with my daughter without him coming – DA$$!” I told him all the stuff she had to say (which I shouldn’t have) because then he became so afraid and refused to go around my family because he knew he wasn’t welcomed. It really put me in an uncomfortable position too because I was trying to please everyone and I felt I needed to downplay my happiness as to not rub it in her face. I changed too and started seeing all the bad and hammering it into him on every turn.

If I were your hubby I might want to put the brakes on too if the family is treating him like he’s less than..like my mom did Dwayne…Ask your family how she’d feel if she came to a different country and didn’t know anyone and was treated this way (didn’t work for me but hey it might if your family is normal)

Intimacy, like charity, begins at home. If we cannot be intimate with ourselves, we have no way to bring to intimacy with another person.

Intimacy with ourselves takes time. We need time for rest, time for walks, time for quiet, and time to tune into to ourselves. We cannot completely fill up our lives with activities and become intimate with ourselves. Nor can we just sit quietly indefinitely and become intimate with ourselves. We have to have the time and energy to be our lives and to do our live in order to establish and intimate relationship with ourselves.

Surprisingly, as we become intimate with ourselves, we discover our connection with others

I wonder who is it? Is it maybe someone we know of here in the states? The first thought that came to mind is I hope it wasn’t that pastor that be with Rev Run.

Did you read how he was about to take the stage and speak to thousands of people knowing what you did just hours ago?? Its craz I'm sure he was about to preach about the same things he just done. Such a shame!

I think I witnessed one of these tents things when I was in Westmoreland. I was all in it. We stopped pon de side of the road ta get something ta eat and next thing you know I wandered over der.

Thanks everyone....Everyone who inputted made some really valued points...Dada your sister wife is exactly how my brother's wife is...she is also Jamaican and she first came across as stand offish (i think thats the word you used)...she still does but she has been married to my brother for 8 yrs and we have known her for 10yrs so we just know that is her personality...but she talks with my mom and stuff and they have a good relationship...but husband is like what Yaads describe with her hubby in the beginning...he is not use to our stories and our joking around and stuff...so he did say he feel out of place...

I asked him why he made that comment about moving far away from my mom and he said because he felt a way becasue my son told us that he went back to my mom and told her that we argue and stuff...so he felt embarrassed... :blush: ...

So i guess i will just leave it alone and let him come around...but he will never tell me to "disown" my family...he just doesn't feel like being around them himself...

My brother’s wife not sisters....LOL Yes like when we come over she is usually in her room or she comes out and speaks and then away she goes. Were are the type of family where we eat together and we like to play games together and everything and she never wanted to play or basically do anything with us. Me and my bro or close so I know when we plan family trips he always has to haggle with her about going. See we try to do something as a family at least once a year so I knew she hated them trips and always tried to get him not to go. On holidays we like to get together. They were living in New Jersey. He recently bought a house back here in Pittsburgh but for some strange reason they are selling it and moving back to New Jersey. Ummm.

I think we don’t go over that much but we picked up on it really quick, she acted like she didn’t want to be bothered.

Umph 11 years now and they are still going strong. That I know of actually her school reunion is next year in Kingston and my bro has invited because he knows I want to see Kingston but I refuse to go without a true Jamaican. Sorry I'll go around Mobay, Negril and Ocho in a minute by miself but I’m not stepping foot in Kingston without a Jamaican on my arm. I asked my bro have you asked your wife first if she minds and he was like oh yeah I should do that first huh?? LOL

Bunz, when this first happened my parents were in Jamaica and when they went to the police station for an update my mom was waiting to talk to the coporal and the other officers were in the back saying, a country people dem a musah money dem look fram di bway family...my mother waited for the coporal to enter then she told off the officers that were talking about her...just no respect.

because dem waan mek sure dem get fi dem own first!

some police officers give the force such a bad name

Totally agree with this - And the bad ones make it hard for the good ones to do their jobs.

Wakey, I don't know your mother, but is seemds to me she is a controlling type of person. For so long, you probably have been there for her, and did alots of things for her. Nothing less than what a good decent daughter would do, but she didn't want to let go. It probably wouldn't have matter if it was D, or someone else from right here at home. Her actions may have been the same. One of the things we forget is that when we marry, in the eyes of GOD, our spouses are our new family and they should be considered first.
