I hate to complain about it but it's so hard to deal with someone who has such a low ego. Everytime something goes wrong I wonder whether this will be the thing that breaks her. I love her to death but I question whether at my age this is worth it.
M-17 (nicer way) & Orbital (true, but harsh way) are on the spot! If you really like/love her, don't sweeten up this stuff. Be upfront about it, cuz life gonna get harder and harder. College drama is easy stuff... if you compare of other real life drama.

There's fine line between supporting her & babying her.

just my 2 cents from my pass experience

Some women remain weak/dependent/low-self esteem for most maybe even all of their life.
While others shape up-and learn from mistakes, and suck it up.
Every personality is different. Age has a lot to do with it, as well as up bringing.
If it doesn't drive you up the wall and you still care about her follow M-17 advice.
But keep in mind, if you are constantly her crutch, that will be unhealthy.

She's been through and is going through a lot in her life, which is tough because I haven't. I've always had a super positive outlook on life and have been blessed with a lot. It's not that I'm her crutch per se; instead it's that I really never have any issues and she does. I'm not a fan of how she deals with her issues but that isn't my deal. Basically, to sum up our personalities by our vice of choice, she likes alcohol, I like weed. Says a lot about a person generally. Today just isn't going well

On a side note: The new HKS Hi-Power spec L lightweight exhaust is sick....I really want it except for the price of the full system I could almost supercharge my car.....Guess my #1 is still the Invidia N1 except that I question whether I'll like it in a few years because of the boy racer look.

So I had a talk with my uncle about my baby-hood awhile back and I mentioned to him how my mom -when she decided to leave the family via divorce - burnt all of my child pictures. So from my birth too roughly the age of 7 or so I don't have any photo-record of myself.

Luckily, my uncle had kept an entire stash of photos and some of them had me in it.


I know it doesn't mean much but whoa. I look'd like a straight up G! lol

But the feeling that you don't have any photos of babyhood kinda sucks. I'm kinda glad I at least have one.

You have my respect. There's no worse feeling then having someone who is supposed to love & protect you, choose to leave you. I honestly believe it to be the worst kind of violation possible.

That's a beautiful photo, cherish it. And if it's not too creepy, I think you're an exception to the rule that if you're cute as a child, you wont be as an adult. Very cute in that photo to.

Aaaawwweee! lol .... ahem... I mean uhhh... cool.

You should of posted this under your pic to solidify you gangsterness.

I'm a gangster, I'm a straight up G
The gangster life is the life for me
Shooting people by day, selling drugs by night
Being a gangster is hella tight.

Glad you got something worthwhile to remember yourself as a little baby Giccin.
