Hey Rosie!

My boyfriend robbed a store and blamed it on me!

Hey Rosie,

My deal is just really to warn the young girls out there that sometimes they should listen when family and friends tell you that you should leave a guy alone. Rosie, I have a type. I like my guys tough like a thug, well built, ones that I thought I had respect for because they wouldn’t back down from a fight etc.

Well that was my mistake. I met this guy through a friend of a friend. We were in a club and he had the right moves and said the right things.{{more}}He smoked (not crazy about that), drank, drove fast and I was in heaven.

One day, we were hanging out and he said he’d be right back. Rosie, I was in my car and I was driving. Do you know this fool robbed a store? He came running out dropped the money in my car told me to drive he would catch with me later and he ran off on foot! Rosie the cops caught me, arrested me within hours and charged me as an accomplice.

My life is now a legal mess and I’m facing over five years in prison. My parents are in debt to help me out, I had to drop out of school one year before graduation and my boyfriend told the court that this was my plan, I can’t believe it! Hopefully my story can prevent a young woman from going down this hurtful path. By the way Rosie I am only 23 years old. God knows what’s going to happen to me now?

My dear,

Words really fail me at this moment. My simple response is that it would seem as though you are in the middle of a HUGE life lesson. One that after reading your perspective, you, at this very young age of 23 have learnt a life changing lesson from it.

A few things to hold unto; always keep the faith. Without it you have no foundation. Do not let this one mistake define the rest of your life. You can change the world for the better no matter your experiences . Ask deep within yourself “what is the lesson that I am getting here and how can I make my life a more positive experience “? Finally forgive yourself, continue to plan and make improvements in your life . You are responsible for you.

I do hope your case turns out in your favour. Sending positive thoughts your way.

Rosie
