I don’t know if praying works. I am in divorce like situation with my sister. I have been financially supported by my sister. That seems to be all that people care about. Well do you pay bills. This is what is happening. The person has two sons, and is currently dating. I have been put out and restricted to the hours of 8 pm to 8am. I cannot enter the house. The hours listed are the hours they work. So I am there with the children. They have been able to continue their life like normal. But my life has been turned upside down. I have a 4.0 GPA and the person is jealous because they are not in school.

1. She has to leave one child home to take the other to school. Either I or my mom has to stay home to care for the child. We never know when she is coming back. If we call her she forwards calls.,

2. The first night she took advantage of my homelessness and used it to go off to be with her boyfriend. I have been told constantly that I am getting to do whatever I want. But she is the one that really does whatever. She can come and go as she pleases because we help her.

3. I am paying for an internet connection at her house. It was for school. I am not able to use it because of not being able to be at home. But she probably uses it.

4. I am not allowed there unless she is there. It is as if I am in the doghouse. But the whole thing is she doesn’t want to support me getting a 4.0. She claims school doesn’t matter. But when I went to her house at 8 last night she claimed she was going to go to nursing school. So, its okay for you to go to school, but when I’m in school it’s a sin.

5. She took away the keys to her apartment. I don’t have access to any of my things and have to carry everything around for 12 hours.

6. I have not been able to eat consistently because I refuse to eat fast food and ruin my weight. Also, there has been a jealousy because of me working out. I used to be 254 lbs, now I am about 180. She is jealous and says that because of her I was able to lose weight. It seems as if she thinks she is God. Everything I do that is good is because of her. She feels like because she pays bills that that means everything. It doesn’t. You have to work to lose 70 lbs or get a 4.0. Nobody praying my bills got me those things. I had to pray and work and I still am under these conditions. But I’m tired of the extra drama.

7. I paid for her books and laptop to go to school, and gave her all my old test to a class. Of course, she made an A.

8. I paid for her to go to driver’s school.

9. I have contributed to her GROWTH tremendously, but every time I start growing I get thrown outside and told to live with it.

10. Also, I listen to her talk about the garbage that is going on with her and her boyfriend. That costs because of time and energy. Nobody else cares.

She is taking advantage of the weather being cold and rainy. I can't live like that. I was just waiting till this last semester was over to work. Because I have worked hard for a 4.0 GPA. I stand behind that decision 2000 percent. School matters.

Please pray for a solution for me.
