Relationships

I've dated many people and all of them were, you can say it with me, unsuccessful.  That is why I am still single at 28.  It's not that I haven't wanted any of my relationships to work out, it's just that some were boring and some were abusive.  I will explain in detail about all of the men I've dated in a few minutes, meanwhile, why don't I list the people that I've dated, and no, they are not in order. Dive into my personal life a little bit and learn more about me.
  1. Damian Fisher
  2. Brandon West
  3. Kevin Stark
  4. Chad Hatch
  5. Ray Lofthouse
  6. Spencer Tatton
  7. Adam McKinney
  8. Christopher Bowers
  9. Josh Bowcutt
  10. Josh Cerka/Slayd
Let's start with Damian Fisher shall we.  His nickname was DJ because his middle name was Joseph. We we going to go to one of the December Christmas dances and I finally had the nerves to ask him out. That's right, I was nervous and this was back in 2006, high school years. Sophomore, I'm pretty sure.  Well, I asked him to the dance and he said yes, then one week before the dance, he is underneath a car with one of my best friends, Meghan Topham, but what did I care, it's not like we were dating back then. Also, he doesn't even go to the dance with me, he MOVES to Idaho and doesn't even tell me.
Let's fast forward to when I am a Senior in high school.  Damian comes back, asking all my friends in the hallways and the common room if any of them have seen me because it was yearbook signing day.  In the end, he finds me, and eventually I give in and give him my phone number written on the inside of his palm in really light purple gel pen so I'm hoping it would rub off or wash off before he got the chance to call me. He calls me more than 20 - 30 times, leaves a voicemail every time, and I hate voicemails, until I finally answer the phone. I am not happy and all he wants is a date.  After all of this time, seriously?? But eventually, I cave and I say I will go on a date with him, not knowing he was going to bring his sister with him on the date.
Fast forward another six months and we are seriously dating, like he is living with me and my parents until we decide to move out on our own.  My dad didn't like him and to be honest, we didn't have a place to stay, so we were homeless for almost three years. In Salt Lake City, Utah, Long Beach, California, Reno, Nevada and Loveland, Colorado.  I also had a son with him in April of 2010 but he didn't find out I was pregnant until I was three months along and he was in jail, I don't remember what for. I gave up my son, who I named Aiden, when he was five months old so he could have a better life than what I could give him.He won't come back to Utah because he has outstanding warrants for his arrest.  I ended up leaving Damian for good in Loveland, Colorado after a huge fight.  A woman had handed me a pamphlet on domestic abuse for women while he was using the restroom. Earlier that day, we ran into an older lady and her daughter. She said if I ever needed help, to come back.  So I came back to her, she took me to her and her husband's place for the night and they paid for a bus ticket for me to go home to where my mother was staying in NorthEast Oregon.  It was so generous of them and we got their address so we were able to pay them back. I got to Oregon Christmas Eve night in 2011. He found me and followed me to Oregon and he convinced me to let him  stay with us at the time. I had to leave with my mom to Utah to go visit my son Aiden, and while I was gone, I got a phone call from my  youngest sister Kimberli saying that my fiancĂ© had just slept with my other sister Shantel. I told her to tell him to be gone before I come back and that's the last time I saw him.  I think it finally ended in 2012, I don't remember what month or day. I will talk about the rest of my failed relationships in another post next week. Thanks for reading.

About Me

Let me tell you a little about me. My name is Stormie Heaton and I am 28 years old. I have two sons who I love very much. Aiden, who is 7 years old but does not live with me because I put him up for adoption when he was only 5 months old because I was in a very abusive relationship and I wanted a better life for him. I still get pictures of him every 6 months or so. Caleb, who is 4 years old and lives with me, my mother, my grandmother, and one of my younger sisters. He is currently enrolled in a functioning skills preschool and is doing great! I have a very great relationship with God and the church and I am trying to get my patriarchal blessing.  I do not attend church every week but I still study the scriptures and pray. Caleb is now a Sunbeam, I am very proud of him.
I have had many relationships and many of them did not end well, but that is a story for another post, later.  Thank you for reading and I hope you come back for my next post.
