Do I get out the house full of anger and hate? ... Am I going to treat my partner the same way my mom did to hers? ... is he going to be like my Dad?... all his questions could rush you in to something you would regret, you probably end up with someone with worse issues than your dad just to get out your thoughts... your mom could be right about not trusting men ... you cant trust men just because you think you are in love ... they have to earn your trust ... and the best way to do so is to study the guy you called (Your soulmate) ... try to see how close his behavior is to your Dad and his ability to change ... focus on the man more than what you been told or seen... your judgment of your Dad will help you understand this guy before involving with him ... and like I said who knows.. He could turn to be a Mama boy or something worse than you Dad.

Wow! Your life kind of looks just like a rerun of my first marriage' where my mother-in-law tried to break up our relationship,and I was a no good so and so. We three lived together and everyting was just like honey,honey. Never knew that my mother-in-law was stabbing me in the back, until much later, after we moved out. And that is what you will have to do too. If you stay within that poisonous, unsociable environment,you can kiss your loving relationship that you have going for you good-bye. We walked out of a poisoned threesome into a life of husband and wifeness. You and your boyfriend both owe that to each other. And as much as you love your mother or father."PLEASE", "PLEASE" get out that sick household.
