step-son & 'jolly girl'

 

they got together few months back

 

after a few days at ours-he  offered her his iphone 4s cos he was due a new one-anyway she pissed off, he never seen he until he said he'd got his new phone, she got in a taxi & was here to collect his old one

then after a few days she said she was 'confused' & hasnt seen him for about 6/8 weeks

they kept in contact

but was always falling out & she kept deleting his number

ANYWAY

a holiday has been booked a while ago to spain or somewhere

in-laws have paid for me

but i wont go for my own reasons

so a space is free

step-son told her

since then

she's accepted his offer to go to frankies & bennys

says she wants to get engaged

picked a ring out worth a few hundred quid

and keeps asking if im definetly not going

 

am i being cynical here?

thing is he's got aspergers

since she 'dumped him' first time-he's been self harming

he's on tablets from docs

he's got counciling lined up

now she's back he's skipping around very happy

 

in all honesty if it was one of us we'd think 'piss off' & we'd see what the jolly bird is up to

he cant see it

his younger bro told him shes using him-they had a massive fight-strangling each other!

me & his mom know the score

we darent tell his gran

 

she'd buy an AK47

You can tell him to get rid til the cows come home, unfortunately he probably won't listen. Maybe her going on the holiday could be a good thing.... Nowhere for her to run off to. If she is just using him, spending a week or two together might open his eyes to what she's really like? It's not ideal but letting her get a free holiday rather than him buying her an engagement ring, asking her to marry him and then getting hurt.

ah!  that is a complication but it sounds like he's going to have to understand that the hard way.  As Jen said, if she goes then at least she's got no where to run and that time together might show him what she's like but I'd be ticked she's getting a free holiday out of it

What Yogi said is good advice, though its hard 

 

Sorry for your trouble Pirate

That's where I'm at with it too, Jen.  A word in her shell-like, let her know you've got her card marked etc..  None of this is to be done - nor should it be - in front of anyone else, least of all your step son.  But you can't sit there and let her carry on mugging everyone.

 

Either way, he's going to end up the victim in all of this.  The angle is, how do you let this one pan out without too much damage once the fall out takes place?  It's a bit of a sh*tty stick all round.
