Ginny
I am not a bitter man-hater. It really is OK for me to be thirty and
single. Or never marry at all. I love men, I just don't desperately need them to
make me feel that I have some worth.
Yes, I'm raising two kids with no man in the house. Yes, I work full-time
to support them. Yes, I'm going to college also. No, my kids are not "poor
little things" because of any of those circumstances. All three of us are
healthy, happy, intelligent, and well-adjusted people. And we are a family -
even *gasp* without a man! And it really is okay for my life to be about me and
what I can contribute to the world.
Though my kiddos are the center of my world, we are not the center of the
entire world, and I really am a separate person. And for crying out loud, please
quit whining to me about what an ass your husband is and then implying that my
whole life would be worthwhile if I only had one. Either leave the jerk or shut
the hell up!
And on a related note, I really don't want to be set up with that "really
nice guy" your husband works with. I'll make my own mistakes, thank you, I don't
need any help in that area. And, finally, I will smack the shit out of the next
person who even hints that I would find the perfect man and have a wonderful
life if I lost a few (or many) pounds. I like my curves and so do plenty of men.
My weight hasn't affected my love life at all - my attitude has. I'm dealing
with it so shut up!
