Hi everyone,

This may not be the best time to write up my introduction, but I'm going to do it anyway, because I'll forget otherwise. I'm going to stick to basics for right now, but if you have any questions, I'm normally a very open person.

My name is Amber. I'm 21, and mom to Jordyn, who turned a year old last month. Her father and I are still legally married, but we're going through a divorce. We were only married 2 years. I was diagnosed with Bipolar and Borderline Personality Disorder a month before I met him. We were married less than 2 months after we met. Big mistake. We separated back in March, and I haven't seen him since the end of June.

I am seeing someone now, that I'm madly in love with. Most of the time, at least. We're moving in together this coming weekend. That should be interesting... As it stands right now, I'm not working. I was living with my best friend for a couple months, but I couldn't pay rent, so I moved back in with my mom in June.

My better half is telling me that he has no problem with me being a stay at home mom. I hate the thought of someone else raising my daughter. I also just don't do work very well. I never have. That just makes me feel a little odd... If we were married, it would make more sense, but I'm just his girlfriend. He's said many times though that he wants to take on the
responsiblity of a family... We'll see how it works.

I actually wrote more than I was expecting to. I'm glad I was invited
to this group. It seems like it'll be a nice change from the other ones I've joined. I hope to talk to you all soon.
