Then you are truly a woman who deserves to be cherished by her man, Brandi.

LOL thanks Karl I try to be something he can be proud of...I wasnt raised to be dependent on anyone man included...Ive always taken care of myself and if I get to a point to where I cant anymore Id like to be humanely euthanized. The thought of someone taking care of me or doing my bidding bothers me...though I dont mind taking care of other people...Im a strange one but Im proud of it!

Thought I might add my


I have a husband that does absolutely nothing, that's right NOTHING!! I cook, clean, do laundry, vacuum, do ALL the shopping, take out the trash, and even mow the yard! He never helps me do anything. I can ask him for help and he says "When I get time". When I get time, my a$$!! He never seems to have the TIME!! He says since I don't work anymore, that I have all day long to get these things done before he gets home from work. I agree, to a point, but I think, I do deserve some help every now and then. Come on!!

Mind you, it was not always like this. When I worked, we shared the the household chores and we even mowed and done the lawn together. But, not any more!!

He doesn't have his priorities straight!! His only interest is that damn motorcycle club and this stupid computer!! Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy a good ride and also enjoy the computer, but not until 2, 3, 4 o'clock in the morning!! I used to b$$ch about it all the time, but it doesn't do any good, so I just do it and keep my mouth shut!!

Even after 30 years of marriage, MEN, can't live with'em, can't live without'em!!

Ok, rant over!!

Nope..you are not. How can you not when there are soo many role models in books when you are a child that point in the direction of a prince falling madly in love with a princess. That is what got me in trouble with my last boyfriend....I wanted to believe so desperately that we were "meant" to be together. I think it is perfectly ok to admit to wanting the fairy tale...but realize that wanting the fairy tale can mean missing out on a great relationship or holding on to a really disasterous one.

OK...in my case, breaking up and the whole 'love thing' fading didn't have a single thing to do with money.
