Search Results: making promises

I'm sure you all heard of love stories where the girl waits for her lover to return. She can be waiting years either he returns as promised or he never does.

The opposite happened in my brother's case. He promised his girlfriend he would return and propose. She promised to wait for him. He's 26 years old and came back from the military after 3 years. He came back to surprise her with an engagement ring but instead finds her making out with his friend. He feels he waited for nothing. Is that version rare? The guy faithfully waiting but the woman didn't.

I am very wary of him because after my mom divorced him when I was 7 due to him being on drugs and abusing her. He stopped contacting us completely. I would hear my mom on the phone calling him, leaving him messages asking him to see us. He'd make promises then never show. Then I finally seen him again when I was 23. Then years later after that. Nothing ever consistent. Calls every once In a blue moon and barks orders like I'm a child stating ," I worry about you. As soon as you get off work go straight home."

Blah blah yet where was this concern years ago. Then he got mad at me for not wishing him a father's day. I haven't wished him a happy fathers day since I was 7. He hasn't been here. Then I addressed it he blamed my mom saying he didn't come around because she remarried after the divorce (she remarried 3 years later). And said he was homeless because of the divorce and blamed my grandma saying she was evil that's why she's dead now. But come on who would want their daughter to stay married to a man using drugs and abusing her? My mom divorced him because she said she found drugs in my stroller from him doing drugs and making deals. She said I could've gotten taken away if the police caught him.
