I received an email from my friend Beth, responding to my post about the behavior I witnessed between the two couples in the video store. I opened the email at 7 am, it was my first email, and it made me laugh out loud. I will post it here, and you will see why:
Those people are not in a relationship with each other. “Relationship” implies two way street. Those bitchy demanding girls are in a supply/demand sort of thing, as are the guys. And they will probably go on together, each and every Saturday night. And the guys will plan football weekends that involve massive amounts of beer to dull the pain that is their lives. And the girls will guilt them into getting married, and plan a ridiculous Cinderella event that completely and utterly revolves around the bride ONLY because she feels it “is MY day”. And she will force him to dance to the “Theme from Ice Castles”. And he and his friends will get obliterated on the night of his bachelor party and totally participate in lap dances with Barbie-doll boobed pole dancers. That is not a relationship that you want any part of.
Thank you, Beth. That email has already made my day.
