hi hello! iâm s, coming at you from the great âol midwest so iâm in cdt! my favorite things are pizza, diet coke, movies and roller skating (not in that order) . i canât wait to get to know u all!!Â
hereâs a lil bit about my baby boo, bare with me iâll come up with more as we go along!Â
samantha jo parker was the third child born to tommy and jillian parker. her parents always wanted a big family and would go on to have three other children after sam. her mother was a school teacher and her father was the high school principal, meaning that the parker children were always under the community spotlight.
growing up sammi was the perfect girl next door, she was adored by everyone in the community, she was homecoming queen and captain of the cheerleading team, she knew how to put on a face for the sake of her parentsâ names even if she wasnât always as good as others thought.Â
there were nights that sheâd come home past curfew, just like any other teen but she loved the thrill of disobeying her parents. she liked to push the boundaries, knowing she could bat her eyes and all would be fixed.Â
when she fell in love with her high school sweetheart, she fell fast. it was the two of them against the world and sam was positive sheâd never love someone the way she loved him, she didnât care how young they were. nobody was going to change her mind. shortly after she graduated the two of them had officially moved in together, she didnât know what would come next but she knew sheâd figure it out with him.Â
as the years went on sam started her own photography business, loving that she was able to capture so many beautiful moments for so many people. she spends most of the hours in a day at her computer editing photos. she always has a camera with her and will capture even the smallest of moments.Â
a couple of years ago after getting engaged to her longtime love, sammi found out that she was pregnant. even though it was something that they hadnât planned she was over the moon and couldnât wait for the next chapter for their lives to begin, the two of them raising their own daughter together. unfortunately as quickly as the joy came so did the tribulations.Â
after welcoming their daughter into the world, sammi struggled with being a mother. she had such a wonderful upbringing but was so worried that she wouldnât be able to do the same thing for her daughter. nothing was coming naturally like she thought and she felt like a zombie walking through the days. unfortunately she began looking for reassurance where she didnât need to be, she began having an affair with a local and before too long she realized she couldnât put up the facade any longer. reluctantly she left her fiance to raise their baby girl alone. citing that they both deserved someone better than she could be.Â
since then sam has been doing her best to find herself. it was clear to her that she definitely peaked in high school and she doesnât know how to handle that. she doesnât know how to be anything other than who she used to be since thatâs all she knows. she knowâs sheâs the town fuck up and she deals with it everyday.Â
as much as sheâd love to leave town and try to find a new life for herself, she canât leave because she still has two people who keep her here, even if she doesnât realize it.Â
sheâs always barefoot and in her garden, her best friend is her cat penny and she has stashes of cigarettes hidden throughout her house for when sheâs on the verge of a breakdown.Â
after realizing the downward spiral sheâs on was the cause of one lousy mistake she made she canât seem but to beat herself up for it and now she spends her days doing whatever she can to fix things.Â
wanted connectionsÂ
life long bestie - someone whoâs been there since they were kids
bad influence - a friend who sheâs recently become friends with in the last couple of years, maybe they get into some trouble together at times??Â
frenemy - this could be something from way back from high school and itâs just continued to build, sometimes they get along but most of the time itâs just bitter arguments over whatever is pissing them off that day haha
the one she had the affair with ( !!! ) - this could have been a brief thing that happened or something that happens on occasions now? idk, lots of angst to work with there!Â
