Not 1:1 correlations but important in the fraying of their life's fabric.
Give it to Oprah.
But I didnt love him. I cared for him, yes. I was inexplicably tied to him, dependent, attached. But I knew we wouldnt last. We were too young. We didnt have health insurance or steady jobs or savings accounts. But those were just excuses. Really it was about the fact that I couldnt bring myself to have a child with someone I didnt love.
. . . "but I could bone him on a regular basis . . ."
She was 20, he was 26, and they were “but children ourselves”?
Sheesh....
She’s SO concerned about his “wrong moves” and didn’t consider - even once - that she HAD MURDERED A BABY.
Ok, hanging from the ceiling is one thing.
But this STUPID W3NCH thinks that he’s so hurt inside because he suspends.
But is still STILL completely justified in the idea that she killed a baby.
A BABY.
I hope she falls down a flight of stairs.
These sound like shallow people. I’d say pathetic, but the more I see of this type, the more I just feel disgusted that anyone is hearing their story.
Awwwww, what a sweet little narcissist.
Blah, stop the world and let me off.
Guess ‘adoption’ never entered her vacuous head..
Occupation: drinkslinger, struggling novelist, mini-journalist
She is appalled by someone sticking hooks through their flesh, but doesn’t ponder the total destruction of a human baby in the womb?
Also note the offhand comment that she “didn’t have health insurance”. Expect this to become an excuse for all sorts of ills until Hillary is elected.
But I didn't have any problem spreading my legs and screwing someone I didn't love.
Sadly, yes. It's articles like this that make me think Adultus Americanus belongs on the endangered species list.
To see her picture is to understand the article.
But how do you square such stupidities as these?
I was 20, a college dropout with nothing but a journal of badly written poetry and a résumé of restaurant jobs. He was 26, a short-order cook who liked to smoke, drink and acquire tattoos. We werent but children ourselves.
Adults of 20 and 26 years old are not "children" by any possible definition. At this point in their lives they should be fully formed people ready to take on the World. This writer is endorsing the ultra-extended adolescence that so many young people favor these days. Eventually adolescence is going to be extended all the way to menopause, and they we're all out of luck, demographically speaking.
But every now and then I would be struck by the idea that I could have a 2-year-old child right now, a 4-year-old, and so on. I would be sitting in a restaurant, watching a server deliver a highchair or a pack of crayons to a thankful parent, and I would think, Oh, yeah ... weird.
The truly bizarre thing about this piece is that the writer is passing herself off as the more mature adult in this relationship. "Oh, yeah... weird", indeed.
AND then I recognized my attitude for the presumptuous narcissism that it was.
I am afraid this woman has only scratched the surface. She could dig for days and would find nothing bug presumptuous narcissism all the way down. In other words, she fits right in at the Style section of the New York Times.
Weird? To these way-past-their-prime kiddies, normal family life is just that.
Prediction:
She will join him in hanging from hooks, get pregnant again, and get another abortion.
What possesses people - women mainly - to write these confessionals where they reveal themselves as simply old children, self-centered and narcissistic to a fault?
It is murder to kill unborn children while in the womb. God created us and knew us before we were even born. The Bible says in Jeremiah 1:5a, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart”
The Lord Jesus Christ loves us and He loves all children. Jesus said in Mark 10:14b, Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
God loves everyone - innocent, unborn children included. We all are infinitely precious, wonderful, and beautiful in His sight. To support abortion is to support the destruction of Gods highest and most beautiful creation - mankind. I hope this young lady repents of murdering her baby, gives her life to Jesus Christ, and receives His forgiveness. Almighty God is the highest authority of all on this and all other matters, and His views are always right.
