[QUOTE="Lil, post: 615863, member: 17309"] I do believe he's smoking pot. I don't really know, but I don't think, he's doing anything harder. The only reason he's getting any money is that we're still waiting to see if he attempts to go back to school. We don't expect him to get a job here if he's going back there. So anyway I told him, for future reference, just don't tell me he's going to do something if he's not going to do it because that way I won't be disappointed. He said, "I just didn't know what to say." I told him I never expected gifts...if he hadn't said anything it would have been better. But to tell me he had gotten something was just mean. Of course, he also hasn't spent 15 minutes with us, when he said he would spend the day. He said, "I was just about to come in there." I told him not to do me any favors. The lasagna that's in the oven I cooked just because he doesn't like traditional Christmas dinners. He won't be eating any. He's leaving because a friend called and asked him to come over. I told him to go if he wanted. Because I don't care...I really don't. I can't have what I want, which is for him to want to stay. Of course, before he can leave, he has to have a friend come and take him to the gas station because his car is bone dry, to the point it won't start, and he's had $90 since Saturday, but apparently didn't spend it on gas. Guess he'll be using that gas card. All in all, this has been the worst Christmas I have ever had. [/QUOTE]
