I'm stuck in New Jersey (Xeph)

I have to wonder, where is Jon in all of this?  Is he sticking up for you?

There are a lot of times I doubt I'll be able to do the military wife thing...I think I'll ALWAYS be that way simply because I have such a hard time with change (Right down to anxiety attacks and physical sickness).  But Lobo is always there for me.  I love him more than anything else in the world....Mouse is a very close second though :)

Karen, that is a very generous and wonderful offer! 

Xeph, that is just so far beyone bizarre and rude and just plain mean and nasty.  I can't imagine treating a guest in my home like that. I'm glad that you seem to be re-thinking the military wife thing, because depending on whether Jon is just going to re-up once or twice or make it a career, that could involve a whole lot of moving ... not just around the country but around the world. When the late DH and I got married he was in the Navy, but he had already been in for 19 years and was stationed at the Naval Training Center in San Diego with Fleet Training Group, so I knew we weren't going anywhere before he retired.

I "rethink" the military wife thing all the time....I couldn't leave Lobo though.

And now my concern is trying to arrange transport for Delphi.

So sorry you are going thru this   What a sh*tty situation.  I am glad he is sticking up for you, but you must be having some horrible doubts.... not just about being a military wife, but being related to people who dislike you so much and are that STRANGE and RUDE!  I am so, so sorry.  I hope you can get something sorted out.  I am in the UK, so NO help whatsoever!

Xeph, best wishes to you.

Is there some backstory we're missing? Why are the parents threatening to call the police?

If you still need help with Delphi, try here maybe? http://www.americanhumane.org/human-animal-bond/programs/pets-and-womens-shelters/

My mother told me that Jon's father can go do something unpleasant to a duck....

And why condem a duck.....boiling in oil comes to mind.

I am gonna guess all the heat is coming from the mom unit, I am sad to say.

Keep your chin up Xeph, you can do this.

I'm confused!  I thought he was the one who was OK with you???  Nothing happened??  Does your boyfriend know anything more? 

Sorry, not meaning to be nosey.  But, I'm curious about this dad. 

 Jeez Xeph, what a sorry situation.  If I were Jon I would be FURIOUS about this... I mean, REALLY angry.  To the point where I would be threatening to cut off all contact with my parents.  Sounds like you two are planning a future together, and THIS is how they treat the woman their son wants to share his life with?!!!!  It's just crazy.  But maybe if he has grown up with this kind of treatment he accepts it as kind of normal?  I don't know.  I'm just so sorry.

Xeph, could there be something Jon's not telling you, about why his parents are so upset and kicking you guys out?

My parents kicked my brother out more than once, one time when his girlfriend was living with us too (obviously she had to leave as well) because of the way he treated us, plus many more reasons...and my parents were completely justified in doing so. I'm not trying to knock Jon or anything - obviously I don't know either of you - but there's gotta be a reason that his parents (esp. hs dad) are so ticked.

That said, best of luck and wishes going to you that you return home safely and quickly (for your sake!).

Sounds like a nightmare.  Honestly I'd just forget trying to make it work or figure out what the deal is, just get a hotel room (Red Roof Inn comes to mind since they are cheap, national, and allow dogs).
