Who are you?

Who I am well..........I'm a heterosexual female. I'm 19 years old and I was born in the 20th century. For a girl like me to have a boyfriend in this days is like- ok I have a boyfriend and? But in the 20th century, 50 years ago for my grandmother was really different. She is always telling me story about her life and in one of those story she told me she got married at the age of 13. (I didn't find that a big deal) because now a days the girls get married in my country at the age of 11 o even 10. She told me - be quiet and listen to me. - When I got married I didn't know my husband to be. I met him the same day I was going to marry him. I said -why? My parents choose him for me and in those days in town got married in the same way. - I was still playing with my dolls! - she told me, when she was telling me that, I felt bad because I understood what she was tying to tell me, she was force to married to somebody she didn't know. In those days that happened very often and there is nothing you could do about it. But I wanted to know what was all that about. My great-grand father was a very rich a powerful men and he had a lot of business everywhere and about his personality you can imaging how he was in those days. He never liked to loose but in some cases he did loose a lot of money. He got business with a man called Julian. Julian used to live very far away from my grand- father house actually in other town. I don't know what happened between then but I know that my great-grandfather gave is own daughter in marriage to Julian. (Don't ask me what the reason is) my great- grandfather is still mad at me because I tried to manipulate him. - I just wanted to know the whole story about his business and my grandmother. But he didn't say a word after the manipulation thing. But it looks like he married his daughter with other powerful men like him and they both could handle good business together. That marriage didn't last long because he was a cheater and even though my grand mother was young she knew somehow learn what was good and what was bad.

Since those days my grand mother has been working to raise her kids she has been mother and father for her children. She couldn't go back with her parent because her father wasn't happy with her separation. The reason his business with that men weren't doing good cause of the separation if he wanted his business to be good again he had to make my grandmother life impossible so in that way she could go back with her ex-husband at least that was what my great-grandfather and his Julian wanted. But I know it didn't work because my grandmother moved away from both of them and she try to star her life all over again with he children as a single mother she succeeds in the society.

The real reason why my grand mother told me that story was because she wanted me to be strong in my situation. When I was 16 years old my family was forcing me to marry to somebody. I didn't want to marry I was too young for that and I wanted to know more about life before marriage. The guy they wanted me to marry with was a good person i know because I meet him a long time ago he was 27 years old and he was a lawyer and a politician like my father.

When I meet him I was having a tour with the staff of my TV show in San Rafael a beautiful place in the Dominican Republic, magic place. I call an agency to organize everything for us. So in that way I didn't have to worry about food or anything else for us they were in charge, I paid them to get a full service from them. When I meet him he was working in the company
