Meeting with a lawyer in the morning, HUH?
Oh Shit this marriage thing is really real. Six weeks into the marriage my husband says we are renting a car and going to Atlanta to meet his family and his lawyer. Okay let’s remember that I am 24 years young and I specifically said lets keep this a secret and here we are traveling down Interstate I-95. So I am thinking to myself I have to write my thesis so I can graduate and be all that I can be without the army and instead I am traveling to meet my new family. How fucking weird is this, Yikes! Again I say to myself I am trying to do my friend / boyfriend a favor and this is what I get a strange woman calling me everyday asking me what I cooked for dinner and a whole lot of other folks I have never even heard of, grilling me and giving me the once over to see if I am okay. Luckily for me I am half African by association so I got a pass. Now I am not being a smart ass I heard one of his aunts or cousins say some smart ass stuff like that about me in the background. One sister kept repeating her father is African, LOL, the nerve of this clan. Anyway everything was good the family seemed happy and I continued to smile. Later that night my cool husband was told to drive his aunt home and his sister handed me the keys. It was like if she knew he was a bad driver. So I took the keys and dropped his aunt’s home. On the return drive my cool husband turned into a real ass hole he stopped talking to me. I mean this MOFO went mute. I was shocked I have never been ignored especially to my face. We got back to his sisters house where we were staying and once we got to our room he went off. He never explained his anger towards me he just told me that men cheat on their wives and that I should behave and told me to lie on top of him and go to sleep. I was so stunned and shocked that I went mute and complied. This was my first sign and I ignored. I was not his wife I was his entrance into the U. S. of Fucking A. Isn’t this some shit I just signed up to be used and used up. This is where I should have checked myself, my self esteem and my sanity. Knowing what I know now there is no way I would condone this “BITCHASSNESS”. (Special Credit to Puffy for the realization that a new word was needed to sum some suckers up, Cheers!). The following morning he expected me to get polished because we had a meeting with his lawyer, Margaret. Can I say she is the worst lawyer ever her moto is take that money. Margaret sent the bill but never showed any work. She was not accessible via phone or internet. Her approach was very hands off and it worked for me. I was still processing this A hole I married and this situation I put myself into and believe me all I wanted to do was call my grandmother and get a ticket the hell out of dodge. I stayed and he continued to ignore and speak to me when he felt like it. Remember get married for love because when you and your partner get into squabbles there still is compassion and respect in disagreements. When you marry for a green card all bets are off you are there to complete a job.
