I Hate Knowing This Shit About Everyone...

I've been privy to a lot of conversations lately about what happens when people have been married for a long time. Mostly these conversations have very little to do with love, loyalty and happiness. I'd say that 90% of the time they have to do with hatred, infidelity,disgust and boredom. I think the worst part of growing up is finding out that all the people you thought you knew, people you thought were "good" people who would never act 'like that", most certainly DO "act like that". Its depressing. I'm tired of watching the guy who appears to be a devoted husband get away with being a fucking cheater. I'm tired of listening to women talk about how much they hate their husbands. It's boring.

I used to think the best part of growing up was getting married and starting a family with the person who you loved and seemed like a great partner. Now? Ugh, it sounds awful and like a giant dissapointment waiting to happen. I've also noticed that a lot of the people who I went to High School with are now starting to get married and have children. I remember my peers as these really cool, outspoken, independant, subversive bitches who now have settled into these marriages with schlubby dudes who they wouldn't have thought TWICE about TALKING to in High School. What happened to us? I am still unmarried and approach the idea VERY cautiously. I feel like the minute I think it might be a good idea, my immediate next thought is, "Yeah, until you hate each other." This is sad city.
