Rationalizing Misery

At my job there’s this woman who is probably in her early 40’s.  She is exceptionally cute for her age.  She has a nice body, that full Latin ass and a decent pair of tits, and her face makes her look like she’s in her early 30’s, if not younger.  I would bone her in a second, except I don’t shit where I eat.

Best of all she is very nice and friendly.  She has a very positive attitude, along with that natural “who gives a shit mentality”.  I have to say that I find a carefree and loose attitude very attractive now, as opposed to the snobby, smart girl that I used to like.

Every now and then we’ll talk about her marriage.  She’s been married to her husband for 17 years, and they have a child together (possibly 3, but her two daughters are in their 20’s, so I’m not sure if she had them with him or not).  She tells me that he goes through her Facebook and he will drill her about who her friends are.  He’s really jealous and possessive.  Also, he has a general negative attitude, and she tells me that a lot of times she’ll just walk away form him in the middle of a rant saying, “oh stop being such a drama king”.

There are countless stories that she’s told me of this guy being a douchebag, and then when I say to her, “how and why do you take that?”  And she just says, “we’ve been together for so long.  You just get used to it.”

Man.  I honestly never ever want to say that to myself.

There are a lot of times that I consider what I really want.

Don’t just settle.  Don’t just figure the person you’re with is it.  Don’t make decisions now because you are afraid of the future.  Don’t rationalize your misery.
