I dind't even get a christmas gift at least my child did. His mother never even mailed a gift to us not once all these years .She could of at least send something with his friends that come back and forth and visit us.She knows most of his friends.He just told me he is getting cigarettes that was two hours ago. My daughter and i are left like hostages most of the time. Its not easy. the shelters would never take me because i am not being beaten. I have been praying alot lately .

After all this time being with him i realized i was just a greencard interview. he wasted half my life. I am being kept like a prisoner i cant even get a work at home job on the computer because i cant have a bank account he wont share his with me.Someday i know i will get out of this and pray for the rest of the women here on this blog who want to get out of it and they cannot either.
