Or did you mean get my act together and man up and be the kind of man she would find attractive? No, I won't do that. I don't believe I could. And I wouldn't want to give her the satisfaction of being right. I'd rather be miserable than have her be right.

Like I said, I hope you are not married to someone like me.

Sorry to disappoint you, but I think I am married to someone exactly like you, who takes more pleasure in beating someone else than in claiming their own victory. You guys are so sad, and what a waste of time for the rest of us. What kind of pride can you have in being the total waste of someone else's time and emotions?

I'll ask you the Q I pose to my own H: are you proud of the man you are today? Could you die tomorrow, with pride in having done the best with the gifts you were given?

And...do you know that your life is not yet over?

Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence. Second marriage is the triumph of hope over experience.
