He is overly cynical about relationships in general, mostly stemming from his 2 long-term previous ones with some real witchy women. I am nothing like either of them. I do not lie to him; I do not drink more than once every like 6-7 months; I do not do drugs (nor have I ever); I am not planning on telling him something life-altering 3 days before our wedding so he can&#8217;t back out; and I don&#8217;t have a kid. Nope.<\/p>\n<p>I do, however, have a steady full-time job; I am going to grad school for my MBA; I did my undergrad in 4 years and a semester; I do not shop like some of my friends (as in when I do shop for clothes, shoes, or bags, it&#8217;s a few times a year and only spend a few hundred dollars as opposed to going many many many times a year and spending a few hundred dollars each time); I have been independent and living on my own since I was 17; I have a very reliable car; I am a realist-optimist; I am, for the most part, extremely responsible and reasonable.<\/p>\n<p>Then why do I fly off the handle over his cynicism of relationships? Maybe because it makes me feel like I am being lumped with the rest. Or like I am being punished for the ways they treated him. Who knows. I just wish I could not do that. I&#8217;m still learning.<\/p>\n<p>And yes, I write and vent&#8230; and then I go home and talk to him. Because I love him with every fiber in my body and know that he is the most wonderful and loving man on the planet. And I can&#8217;t wait to be his wife and have kids with him.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:78%;\">Image found <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pluk.co.uk\/2009\/should-locum-pharmacists-be-given-mur-targets\/\">here<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you ever have a stupid misunderstanding with your significant other and question why you&#8217;re in a relationship with someone who does [fill-in-the-blank]?
