all my life i’ve always been judged for my family, my dad is a ex gang member and my mom was a teen mom from a abusive family. my dad didn’t even finish the 9th grade and my whole family is either blue collar, drug dealers, or on drugs. i am highly aware of how my family looks from a outside view even after my dad worked hard and got a job in upper management at a electrical company and my mom quit her shitty night shift jobs. my family is harsh, my dad, after years of seeing his friends get shot right in front of him due to gang violence, always has his jaw tense, his knuckles white, like he’s constantly looking for a way out. my mom also has that look that only a few weeks in the mental hospital or meds can fix. ik where i come from, lived in a trailer park. half mexican half white mutt of sorts. but i wanna be more than that, i have excellent grades, i wanna be a lawyer and i have a internship at a law firm this summer and i’ll be the first person in my family to get college educated. i don’t want the term trailer park trash to be attached to me ever again. this is important btw i promise. so i am 17(f) and i fell in love with my best friend 17(m) and he started coming over to my house without telling his mom. he’s never had a gf before and never rlly lied to his mom b4. well she found out but she blamed me. she told him i was white trash and below his level and that im just a bad kid in general. she also accused me of dating him for their money (he’s persian and they do have a considerable amount of money) well he defended me and called me about it but then she took his phone later and texted me that i need to loose his number and that me and him are over. idk what to do, im furious because i hate to be called trash because of who my parents are, im not them and my parents are the most hard working people ik. i dont like to be accused of dating someone for their money i have my own job and ive been working since 15. and i hate that she said im below his level for smth that i didnt even control. idk what to do i lost my best friend, my bf, and the only person i ever pictured marrying. sorry for how messy this writing is im jus upset i lit went on a 5 mile run after i got the messages. i’m jus so upset and sad and idk what to do like ik its a teen relationship it’s jus like he’s been my best friend for a while and ive loved him for a while too. also his mom loved me when we were jus friends so that’s even more confusing. if u read all of this thank u
