[QUOTE="ksm, post: 595714, member: 12511"] I don't want to make a big deal of it... I want to be calm. But how does one handle the normal girlfriend sleepover thing if it is more than a friend? And for someone who wanted to take photos and keep them private - you would think she would not leave my tripod up in her room and it is pointed at her bed. It was her camera. I already have an appointment with her doctor, and tomorrow I see the same doctor for my preop for eye surgery. And I had already planned on asking her about contraception for difficult child (at my appointment - so that the doctor is aware of it before difficult child has her appointment) I am just not sure what type to do... or what the doctor would recommend. I lean towards the injection or the implant thing... but probably not the IUD. Of course, that would buy us 5 years of protection. But then the pills are good for acne breakouts - but she is horrible about remembering to take pills... But, I was hoping that we would have the neuro testing and the psychiatrist appointment out of the way before we needed to make these decisions. difficult child is terribly impulsive and just from past experience she will go overboard on whatever it is that she wants at the moment. There is no waiting, or planning, or being prepared. She doesn't think rules include her. The reason I mentioned seeing my therapist was to get ideas on how to best talk and handle this - not to shame her. Or, her therapist, in case she needed someone beside me to talk thru this... and at least try to set some boundaries. If this girl is "more than a friend" then no more overnights. But, difficult child will just tell me what she thinks I want to hear and what ever she thinks will get her what she wants. KSM [/QUOTE]
