I saw your thread in LI.
Think about this: If you run away and join a carnival but don't really want to, you're probably going to regret it for a very long time. You'll be missing out on some of your best years. I think you really know what to do in your heart... You should probably go home. Explain to him your reasons for doing so... but go home. I'm sure you can make friends (or already have friends) that will help you stay off drugs and be there for you. You'll probably find a good guy too who doesn't dream of being a carnie.
That, or chance being with the guy.. but I would ask him to reconsider his job options. Surely there's something better than that.

First thing do not do anything rash make sure you think everything through twice over and get him to do the same as he is obviously a good influence due to the fact he kept you off drugs as for age same old wink age is merely a numbr smile
If you go and join the carnival as she said you will end up regretting it and eventually blaming your partner but even though he is a good influence to you it sounds like he can be easily influenced by his friends and this is something you both will need to work out, money problems can indeed cause major problems both me and my partner have money problems because were trying to move, pay bills, pay rent and we have a new born baby as well so it is stressful but through it all he has never made any bad choices.
Why don't you sit down and tell him what your thinking about explain you do not feel comfortable going on the road like that, get him to write the pros and cons of going on the road and you do the same and then compare them and if they out weight the cons then simply go on from there. it wont be easy because you have emotions involved but i would try every aspect before i suddenly walked away.
but the fact you have been convinced it can be bad for you indeed, moving away from everything you know and love can be really hard because not only do you have to deal with new surroundings and new people you also will miss home and find it hard to make friends because you did not choose to move youself.
sit down and try my ideas and see what happens.

thanks for the help i truelly need it and more cause he does have a job and the other two do to i dont for now and its getting deep and hard to get out of this fix we're in will be hard and as for the road i think its more of an old habit for them one was on it for 25 years his partner 6 and my partner off and on since he was 13 and it just scares me that i may end up back on drugs or end up with another dead beat if me and him get fighting and well i'm confusing myself and old habits are starting to try to sneak back in.....

lucifers-girl1988 i see has really difficult problems next to mine over relationships. And Angelic_Highlights advice sounds good.
Although i can't really compare it to mine
i'm 22 now. She's 15 going to be 16 in a few weeks time.
living practicly on the opposite sides of the world we met here on Gaia. everything was fine until early May. She said she'd talk to me on the following Monday and then she didn't. Then i waited but she didn't log on. I sent her several E-Mails and i finally got a reply just 4 days before my birthday. She was going to come over to England from Washington State for a visit to see some of her family in August. but she said she that she'd asked me if she could spend some of that time staying here. apperently i brushed it off. But here's the thing.
She never asked me. She'd been crying and getting upset because she thought i'd ignored the question. one i've never been asked. she offered to talk to me about it properly. but she hasn't talked to me yet. She also said that in the few months that she'd not talked to me she felt she had found someone else passably.
I know she's not 16 yet and i would never do anything wrong. i can't get her out of my head because I'm still in love. I don't know when she will be back home so that she can log on again. I don't blame her for not asking me. i should have seen it. But when she disappeared like that i got worried. I also hope that this new person she's hanging with is not that great. If she has really dumped me. i would like to know. Because i've been left hanging since March the 8th Back then everything was fine. i just don't know what to do any more.

oh syke make a topic explaining everything hun.
===
Hm going back on drugs is a worry but you have to see it from this point of view he did not just get you off drug's deep inside you must have wanted too as well as if you did not there is no way you would have been weaned off them. Sounds to me your a strong person. It does sound like a old habit with them but they need to grow up things in the past are just that in the past, you do not want to be running from one place to another because ties will be lost and the damage could be overwhelming.

Can you try to get work as well? Maybe if you all work to bring more money in, you would be able to pay the bills, and you will not have to give up your place to stay. Also, i think this guy sounds like a good influence if he got you off of drugs, but if he is really pushing you to go on the road, and you don't want to, then you should find somewhere else, doll. there are loads of nice guys out there...it may be hard to find them at first, but if you truly feel that your guy is not trying to the best for you, then you need to find the best.

Well...First of I can't give you the all around answer because I can't tell the future,but at least I can try and point you in the right direction.You love this man and age doesn't matter really.If you do stay things may work out but if you go they then to may be better.But love is strange.I say you should stay with him and see how things go.If you are worried then be worried.Love is strange as I said before,things may not work and/or will be hard but at least you will have each other at the end of each day.

Well...I to once had a drug problem and you have done something amazing over coming that.That shows that you do have the strength to handle what ever life will throw at you...I hope it all works out for you in the future.((Your drugs left you with some thing really bad,I got lucky and now I just have night terrors and a fear of needles.))

Now i think i might have a even larger problem.... while updating my posts a friend here started to make toast and i started smelling it and all of a sudden was overcome with a extreme nuasia and dizzyness to the piont where i couldnt see straight and the room spinned and i felt as if i was going to throw up really bad and i still feel that way and its been about 10 minutes and well i havent ate today but i just got up to and i took my vitamins like normal with sweet tea and sat down on the comp and began updating my stuff then the SMELL OF TOAST made me sick and dizzy and that scares me that it may be morning sickness. All mixed in with this problem that would really make things worce.

if you think you are pregnant, go buy a pregnancy test. and i hope that job-hunting goes well, it sounds like that is the right thing for you to do.

this is where i will be the most help if you are love, just remember that stress can also cause nausea ok. But by the sounds of it you could well be smells use to bugger me up bigtime when i was pregnant with kaitlyn. Bacon use to make me really bad which is not good when there is a cafe next door to the shop below.
If you are pregnant then really post in the pregnancy and mother section i can help you through the whole thing and explain everything of course not every pregnancy is the same but i can be the shoulder of someone who has gone through the whole thing.
Have you had any other symptoms? such as dizziness, feeling really tired, strange feelings? as they can all be signs also, i knew i was pregnant before i found out for some reason.
but if you are this changes everything you cannot go on the road with a young baby would you keep it if you was?
