and I am flipping out.
She has met him in person only once. On Friday. She took DEX's car telling us both that she was going with a girlfriend to the mall. I had plans and needed my car. When she picked up his car, he made the mistake of telling her he was staying with his girlfriend in a hotel that night (they were going to be drinking and didn't want to drive). He invited her and "N" to watch a movie if they wished on his home theater.
She picked up P (internet dude) 60 miles away and took him back to h er dad's She texted me that she was there with N and was spending the night. I didn't question it because I didn't know DEX wasn't there.
It all came crashing down when we started comparing notes and he checked his GPS.
I've not handled it well - through out all my detachment 101 skills and confronted her.
She makes $7.30 an hour and works about 30 hours a week. She has no car and about $2,000 in savings (that she cannot access right now). P doesn't have a job or a car.
I'm scared to death. She says she knows what she is doing is not rational and says she doesn't wan t to live by "the rules of the world".
Her plan is to have N driver her to pick up P. Then she and P are going to DEX's to ask if they can live with him. I have no idea what he'll do. Sometimes he's rational (DEX) and sometimes not. The last time she ran off with an internet dude he told me - in FRONT of her - that she'd done nothing wrong. Still, he's not happy about her lying and bringing this guy back to his place. I pray he says no, but I have no control.
The alternatives (her staying with N and P and/or who knows what?) are not good. I fear, by my begging her to go to counseling and by telling her I was afraid she was doing something dangerous, I may have closed the door on her turning to me if she needs me.
I could cut off her cell phone, but I'm afraid she might be in danger. I will not give her money or let her use my car.
I'm scared and I'm crying my eyes out.
