RE: A choice for better or worse

in Self Improvement4 years ago

I think it is more than that - where so many of the relationships/ marriages are entered into from the wrong position, with the wrong people, with the wrong expectations and wrong understanding. the deviousness steps in later for the relationship, but the first deception is of ourselves, thinking we are making a good choice.

Sort:  

Ah! "thinking that we are making a good choice".
And of course I didn't listen to the warnings of my mother. After all, the chick won a beauty competition and she had a hot body. Plus she was mad about me and professed her love every day. I was a young hippie at the time, long hair, motorbike and tough as leather.
So, what could go wrong?

Well I was 19 at the time and she was 16. We had known each other only for 6 months after I came out of the army. And she got herself "knocked up".
So, I was the father and there was no ways that I would allow my kid to grow up without a father. A shotgun wedding at the local courthouse took place and my new life started!
