she was there for three weeks before she ultimately escaped by jumping a wall growing up though, she had a lot of different aspirations she thought of being a writer, a lawyer, or a counselor she really just wanted to stand out at the end of the day and she just wanted to make a difference her parents described her as being outgoing and she was getting to the point of her rebellious stage

It got to a point where she just always wanted to be with friends and she went to parties every so often.

At first, it was just a normal teen rebellion and it wasn't a huge issue until she started hanging out with the wrong crowd.

She started partying more and was partaking in using weed and alcohol more often.

It did get to the point that she started skipping school very frequently until she dropped out of high school altogether.

By age 18, she went to a drug treatment program to help deal with her substance use.

That same year in 2001, Erin had met a man named Michael Bridges.

At the time, Michael had actually been dating one of Erin's friends, Liz.

That night, Liz and Michael had actually started arguing to the point that Michael had actually stormed off.

So Aaron followed behind Michael and asked him what was wrong and she basically gave him somebody to vent to.

After this, Michael and Liz broke up and him and Aaron realized that they seemed to get along pretty well and they seemed to have a lot in common.

So let's go back a bit and talk more about Michael's life.

So Michael was born in 1980 to his parents, Brad and Georgeann, who did ultimately become separated.

So he grew up primarily living with his mother.

So Michael's dad's side of the family more or less kept their distance from Michael, I guess because they thought that he was like a bastard child so they didn't really want much to do with him.

Growing up, Michael had a best friend who he used sort of as his confidant and his other half.
