So usually when I write on here about family it is because I need to vent. But today it is a happy happy post! My cousin has finally found someone she can be happy with and marry. Since we where in high school she has made one bad choice after another resulting in a teenage pregnancy, an ex in prison and another pregnancy then him back in prison (at least this time is for over a decade so he won't be back anytime soon). Now though in her mid thirties she has found herself a good man who loves her, loves her kids and can deal with our crazy familyShe called me today to tell me to start saving up some cash to fly out to her for a end of summer wedding! So excited. We grew up more like sisters then cousins and I am so very excited for her. Oh I hope this all works out for a life time of love for her after so much crap in our earlier lives. Not just for her but for the kids who this gentleman loves enough that he plans to adopt them for his own Just so glad they will have a family unit that is stable.

Yes me too. We'll have to fly out west for them so I am trying to put money aside now. We will need at least $2500 to go between airfare for 6 of us and hotel rooms and what ever extras we need. I don't care though I wouldn't miss it!

That's wonderful. It's always nice when someone finally takes a good turn in life when they've previously only had bad ones.

That is a great news indeed. Some ladies just made bad choices in life, and they were blind by that. I made bad choices too even though I am a guy. My ex just not the type of girl I would spend my time with after further and further consideration. She loves money, and I guess she loves to hang out in the club, and use me all the time. I just can get any security from her. and I would like to find someone else who really appreciate me. I am glad that your cousin finally find a man of her life.

My brother too has not had luck with the ladies. They seem all to have a some other reason to be with him then love. One day though just the right person will find you both.

Well, let me say that from what I understand in your discussion, your family has spent the past far from happy! And this I am very sorry! Moreover, though I'm happy that things are slowly improving. I hope that everything goes for you, the right way! The past, you know, sometimes it might affect the future life, but when things improve, in my view, it is better to forget and above all, always think positive! This to me has always been said.

we always try to see the good in our lives. We laugh when others would cry because we find the humor in everything that happens to us. It is a good feeling to have happy moments back in our life as for a few years now they seemed so far and few.

The story provides alot of hope that one can indeed find love out there, and not just find love, but find love with someone who loves you back the way he does. I wish her all the best in her upcoming nuptials. Congratulations on such fantastic news.

There has never been a hard choice than choosing the right marriage partner. Many have been cheated into relationships that have seen them regretting for a life time. Personally matters relating to in-laws freak me out. Good luck to that cousin, at least after a long time, she has something to make her smile.
