[QUOTE="habibi, post: 231356, member: 1134"] I'm going to be as tactful as I possibly can. You got engaged to a man after dating him for ONE MONTH? The first few months of a new relationship are known as the "honeymoon period" for a reason. It takes a bit of time for the newness and excitement (and blindness) of love to make way for a more realistic assessment of each other. When you rushed into this relationship, you put your son at emotional and possibly physical risk. Your son knows this, although he may not have the verbal skills to express it. His reaction to your behavior was to flee the situation. I think that there is a lot more to this story. The fact that your guy was arrested and jailed for driving without a license is a huge red flag. That fact hints at a criminal record and general irresponsible behavior. Your son does not need a facility. He needs a mature parent who proceeds cautiously and thoughtfully when making important decisions. Once he has that, some psychological counseling and assessment would be in order. [/QUOTE]
