Ya know... I've been known to have some pretty low self esteem. I don't like the way I look, and my standards for choosing mates are pretty low. But sometimes I look at others... And I realize it can be worse.
I was speaking to an old friend of Red's and mine from our Skook days. Now, Red really doesn't like this girl very much, but I still talk to her because... well I don't know why... I think it's because I see how Red treats her and I'd hate to ever be treated like that by Red. That's beside the point. I was talking to her... I'll call her... Blue. I know, Pappy, you told me to stop using confusing aliases... but in this case, I'd feel bad if I didn't use one.
So we're talking and we get on the subject of porno. She was pissed because her fiance was obsessed with porno. Now, that's funny... I mean so what... He likes porn. I like porn. Everyone likes porn. But she was going on... he liked porn... there relationship wasn't what she wanted... He hits her. That piqued my curiosity... I mean... I condone a lot in a relationship... I mean... I fling words like cunt around like they were nothing. But I don't care what the circumstances are... unless that woman is armed with a firm intent on killing you there is NO excuse to hit her. It's so sad because she doesn't think she can do better. I mean what kind of a world are we living in when this type of shit is still happening? How can people be so rotten to each other?
And she said it only happened twice. Am I the only one that thinks it absurd that it happened ONCE! I mean, this girl isn't my favorite person in the world, she's a little annoying sometimes, and somewhat selfish, but she doesn't deserve to get hit. Am I being nosy in being concerned about this?
