FYI...
People will always be scared of what they don't know.
Like right now, I am in the midst of an interesting predicament..
I grew up 3rd out of now 11 children.
All in all it was an interesting experience
And by experience I mean, me growing up in a life that was anything but normal..
Money was always tight.. and I got into trouble.. LIKE EVER DAY..
I liked to speak my mind, like one time I went up to these old ladies and was like "smoking is bad for you.." (because IT IS.. this is what my family has always told me..) and guess what?
I got in trouble for speaking the truth..
Funny old world eh?
ANYHOW.. I am sure there will be much more of life crap to come up.. HOWEVER.. Right now I am dealing with .. THIS..
I am engaged.. and every one of the people I called my friends say:
They are worried about me.
They think this is the biggest mistake of my life.
They have stalked my man on FaceBook and are concerned by what they see.
They think I am settling.
They think I am bitter at the world, and this is me giving them the finger.
That I would be stuck with him in several years (there is an age gap).
That I am crazy.
That I am stupid.
And this all from people who I thought have been good friends.
And it hurts..
So to the people out there who are judging..
You don't know him.
You are simply afraid of how different he/our situation is.
How dare you make assumptions without even meeting the man..
He is a good man.
He and I match..
You, however, are rude, and obnoxious.. take a flying leap "friends"
Thank you.
