Ever notice how people who are in a relationship spend a great deal of time telling the rest of us (those not in a relationship) how it's supposed to be done? What we should do? What we shouldn't do? They give all kinds of advice and suggestions. But when they find themselves alone and no longer in a relationship.... would they take their own advice? HELL NO! I used to get upset at people who tried to "rub my nose" in the fact that they had someone in their life and I didn't. Until I realized that I might be alone (which is my choice at this time) but I am very happy! I'd say 98% of my friends that are in relationships.... are miserable.... All they do is complain about their significant other. It's mostly just the little things that make them angry and upset, but they seem to take these and blow them into HUGE problems and make drama out of it... hmmmm... sound familiar? Seriously when my friends complained before I used to get so upset and if honest, was jealous that they had someone to complain about! NOW..... after much analyzing I LAUGH at anyone who comes to me to complain about their "man" or their "woman" and am thankful really that I don't have those kind of problems. I know the toilet seat will ALWAYS be down when I stumble into the bathroom in the middle of the night. I know that I will ALWAYS have as many blankets as I want. I know I will ALWAYS have control of the remote (well as long as my kid isn't around). I know I will ALWAYS get the Sunday paper first. I know who to blame if there's no beer in the fridge. I know who to blame when there isn't any gas in my car. I know there will ALWAYS be hot water to take a shower with. I know who to blame when I don't have any money in the checking account. I know who to blame when there's no food in the fridge. I know who to blame when the laundry isn't done. No I am not bashing anyone. We all have our faults. I just think people in relationships should spend less time critizing and admonishing the rest of us and concentrate on keeping their relationships happy. This way.... we'd both be happy.... because I won't have to listen to you gush about how happy your are one day then complain the next. I won't have to listen to your advice on how to get my love life in order. And you won't have to listen to me tell you to shut the heck up!
