I had a friend. Her boyfriend would smack her around from time to time. Sometimes quite badly. We would say to her, 'leave him, he shouldn't behave like that, it is wrong'.
She woudl reply that 'he is a good guy, that he will do better. He apologized and said he would do better. He's been really nice lately. I think it will be OK this time'.
Until he would beat on her again...
FINALLY she clued in and left the guy.
I was thinking about her, and thinking about babble, and realizing I can't get sucked in here to babble. I will be just like my friend.
Like my friend, I don't want to lose this, like my friend I tried over and over.
The thing that bugs me now, is that Bob doesn't get it.
I get sucked in to trying to explain in the hopes that this time he will get it....
Maybe I will post some comments.
But I will not be sucked back into this relationship.
