My girlfriend and I have been living together for over a year now and, since we first started living together, have struggled against her parents who refuse to give us any sort of help, even mutually beneficial help, because we're not married.<br /><br />The sad truth of it is that her mother's always telling her to leave me since I'm an atheist.<br /><br />I hope Jesus wasn't as big of a dick.<br /><br />P.S.

When it comes down to it there isn't much difference. <br /><br />When i first moved out here people told me don't live in east san jose. No one could give me a reason. After driving though you can see its all Hispanic people. Most of the neighborhoods are just as nice. There are some sections of poverty, but EVERYTHING out here is a little small, old, and dirty looking compared to the new suburban developments back east. <br /><br />Another place I was told to never go was East Palo Alto. Turns out the reason for that was because black people live there! oh no! <br /><br />This is supposed to be the "hippy love everyone state." But no, they'll hate you if you're different, poor, or gay.mdrosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09475631515369216751noreply@blogger.com
