Saturday night musings

Maeve: When you first moved to Carlsbad, you had no friends. You had a hard time making female friends, so you gave up on that. You became focused on meeting men to date and possibly marry. You found that difficult  as well. You applied for jobs and worked a bit, with little success. When you met Stephen you focused on your successful boyfriend who reminded you of Keith. Stephen was a chemistry major, while in college, like Keith.  But he was really nothing like Keith, now that you think about it. He pales in comparison, to be honest. But you dated Stephen until you got the marriage bug. The marriage bug eventually grew into the child-rearing bug and then it was really too late. Now you are, as they say,  “baby trapped.” Don’t look back. Don’t look around too much and compare your life/partner to others, for you will only grow bitter. You are better off focusing on your life in the present…and keep my husband out of your thoughts or we will be coming for you. Be forewarned!

Val: Yes, you are pathetically unlucky in love, unemployed, and you only made friends late in life by mere happenstance. (Not that you know what the word happenstance means) Be forewarned!
