hey you

Today
9:21pm

Kelly is depressed; just sat in a jacuzzi ALONE; sick of this.

9:25pmKelly

HELLO

whoops; hello

9:27pmRichard

hi

depressed and sick of this hm?… sounds…..nice

9:28pmKelly

I am just sick of working 13 hours a day and spending all night ALONE.

9:29pm Kelly edited Education Info, Work Info and Activities in her profile.
9:30pmRichard

why? who do you wanna spend nights with?

9:30pmKelly

The right man; someone i can trust and laugh with…

9:31pmRichard

so what are you getting depressed about? go out and meet some people whydontcha

9:32pmKelly

I have been sober 30 months and honestly I only know how to meet people when drunk, so my sobriety keeps me quite isolated.

9:34pmKelly

I meet people, they are not people I want to keep though.

9:34pmRichard

why does sobriety keep you isolated?

9:34pmKelly

I don’t get home until after 9pm and not much is open other than bars and clubs

9:35pmRichard

and you dont like bars and clubs?

9:36pmKelly

No, I went sober and that is TOO tempting; I refuse to relapse, that is not fair to my son.

9:36pmRichard

i don’t drink and i still go out on occasion

9:36pmKelly

I can’t even sip as that would be a relapse; I am an alcoholic, not such thing as a “sip”

9:36pmRichard

i see. well doesnt AA have any social aspect to it? no place to meet other sober people?

and how old is your son anyway? if its not fair for you to relapse, how fair is it to be focusing on finding a man?

shouldnt your dating life maybe take a back seat till he’s at least a teenager?

9:38pmKelly

I am not worried about finding love, just company would be nice; my son is a year and a half.

9:40pmRichard

thats really young. what happened to the dad?

9:41pmKelly

he killed himself 10/23/2007

9:41pmRichard

why

10:02pm

Kelly is wondering if and when it’ll get better.

then for some reason she switched from Facebook’s IM to private messages. Here is the mail thread where that continues:

why did you have a baby with someone who beats you?
how did he off himself?

Kelly [redacted]
Today at 9:47pm
He didn’t beat me until our son was 5 months; he hung himself from a tree.
Richard Bushnell
Today at 9:51pm
so he was pleasant and normal until that one day where he started pounding on you?why would being dishonorably discharged from the Navy make killing yourself a good alternative?

just curious. this fascinates me.


Kelly [redacted]

We were excellent and he had an odd shift of character which I think was meth.
The NAVY has a huge rule against wife beating and they don’t tolerate it EVER.
Richard Bushnell
Today at 10:05pm
he never did any drugs before all of a sudden getting hooked on meth?i know the Navy has rules against domestic abuse. i’m asking why a discharge would be suicide worthy. gotta be more to that situation, no?

he had a trial scheduled for 10/25/2007 after beating me and the NAVY warned him that were he to be convivted he would be dishonorably discharged.
He was 12 years old than myself and had had an addiction a decadde prior to me meeting him; I think he relapsed. Danny’s goal with the NAVY was to serve 20 years and then retire, so he felt that the discharge was too much…
