[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 42118"] I can see the attention-seeking behavior in her claims of being in jail, rehab and a drug dealer. But the thought also crossed my mind that maybe she won't be held to higher standards if others think this is the kind of person she is. Maybe it's an insecurity thing so if she messes up, she doesn't have so far to fall in the eyes of others. In other words, others' expectations of her then are pretty low and she doesn't have to live up to much. I could certainly be way off base on that, but I just thought I'd throw it out there. This guy sounds like bad news all the way around. Unfortunately, the more you try to push him away from your daughter, the more she will want to be with him. Hopefully with counseling, she'll be able to see him for what he is. I'm glad you found this board. [/QUOTE]
