Why do people Piss and Moan?

You just described my ex.



Last straw for me on an 11 year relationship, 3 years ago;

Jobless gf doesn't want to go to movies after I purchase tickets. She stays home because she doesn't like the theatre, says it's ok if I go with our friends and she drinks an entire 750 of Kraken with her ex (who I'm cool with at the time) in my house. I come home with movies to watch and I'm making strawberry shortcake. She pitches a coffee mug, her laptop (catch it mid air) and 2 liter of soda. I warn her, she argues that if I can go to the movies, she can do whatever she wants. Shatters mid century tile coffee table on the floor, so I call the cops.

No, wait. I let that go.

Jobless gf spends $1K+ on Christmas presents, I spend $94, tells me that I'm inconsiderate and irresponsible with money, in a text, from a phone I pay for.

No, wait. I let that slide a few months later, too.


Still jobless gf wakes me up screaming at the top of her lungs at me, Monday morning (3am, work in 3 hours) and says I'm cheating on her. Pulls a piece of paper with my mom's handwriting on it out of my wallet and throws it at me. Address is to an assisted living home and room number where my grandmother was transferred. Still didn't believe me, even though she went with me. Told her to Google the address on the paper.

Mind you, she cheated on me, year 3. Let it go. She still calls me out, insists I'm cheating on her with my brother's girl.

G T F O.

Never looked back.

Current girlfriend;

Going to school for accounting to become a CPA,to build a small business with me, works part time, goes to school full time and we split chores. I still pay most of the bills, but that's never a problem for me. Money is nothing. She's a doll.

I decided long ago, that I will do what I'm doing and to those who share appreciation and respect, I'll be around. Mom, Dad, Wife, whatever. While I don't give in easy, loyalty is subject to change, no matter who your relationship is with and how long it is, and everyone should be aware of consequence as a realistic option.

I'd give up another 11 years on top of what I pulled on with my ex, for another five minutes with my lady. Night and day. Best decision I've ever made in my life.

Love is not an opinion, a feeling, a tolerance or unconditional. Love is a condition.

It took me over a decade to get it right. I'll never forget.
