Every day shit happens and people go on with their daily lives. I believe people go through different events that effect them emotionally and personally. I can only speak for my friends and myself.
Don’t get me wrong, there are terrible things that happen daily in our country and worse in others. As of late mass gun shootings. I grieve for all of the folks who lost family and loved ones. Syria, India, human trafficking, the list is endless with world trauma. We as humans of_____can only deal with our lives. Day to day.

But today a good friend of mine, let’s call her “Celina” may possibly be ending a nine year relationship. Some folks might say she’s an idiot for being with a man who belongs to someone else. Who cares for others but her. Who tries and wants to please everyone but her. She told me, that she’s madly in love with this man and shares her feelings with him when possible. She’s raw, open, wears her heart on her sleeves. Cries, rarely, but when she does it doesn’t look pretty. You know, clenched hands, blotchy eyes, curled lips! Ugly face! Gives everything and waits and waits to no response. She’s strong. As she’s told me he is reserved, quiet, non confrontational, closed and unexpressive. He can share, be there, laugh, be patient, supportive.

She wants to believe deep down that he really loves her and would move mountains for her. But we all know happy endings only last in films. I didn’t want to tell her, but relationships of this nature don’t last. Even in Fatal Attraction it didn’t end well. Alex was shot in the bathtub, when she resurfaced and everyone thought she had drowned. Let’s not forget Unfaithful with a beautiful Diane Lane and Richard Gere kills her lover, the lovely Oliver Martinez.

Only Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy made it work for over 23 years and the guy who created wonder woman.

Look it up.

To him it’s business as usual..
As for my friend it’s, why couldn’t we have just taken a meeting?
