In reply to Do you think most people can be @ssholes?, posted by happyflower on November 14, 2005, at 12:52:39
> Hey, Happy! This is something I have been thinking about so don't laugh! I married what I thought was the most caring and well liked person I have ever met and now he is being a total @ss. Sometimes I can be too, so I am wondering if all people can be an @sshole at one time or another. SOme people all the time. LOL
i married (my now ex) KNOWING it was a bad idea deep down inside (I had no idea what he was doing was called abuse; grew up that way; it was what I was USED to; hated it of course).
I do believe he is the poster-child for Jerk of the world, though. This is the 'man" who told me he wanted to marry someone "taller" I am five feet 2 and a half inches tall. DID HE THINK I WAS GONNA GROW??
This is the man, that after 31 years of (abuse) marriage; told me I didn't deserve respect, and that I had to...EARN it.
Actually, I kept a record (100 things) of the bizarre things he said and did.
> Just look at all the horrible stuff human do to each other all the time. What do you think? Are you an @sshole sometimes?Nahh......I am very careful (being an "expert" in verbal abuse; I instantly recognize it) about my words, and the effects they have on another human being.
What about most people you know?
Yup, everybody else IS, but not me (LOL, ROFLT, or sumthin like that).......I can say something unthinking (not too often, tho), but when i recognize it, I apologize
"Man's Inhumanity......to man"
EVERYone is capable of ANY----thing. It always makes me crazy (er) when people say things like: Oh, he would never do that (after hearing of a crime or something).
Why is it that people think they know ANYONE? We are lucky if we know ourselves, let alone anyone else.....as in my "ex" said that someone said they just could not believe or understand I would divorce him
Duhhhh, just because he teases and jokes with people DID NOT make him a nice guy.....Sometimes people are so Stooopid.
There, off my soapbox fer now!
Hugs, Ally
