Hello everybody,
This is the way it goes - i start a blog about the inner slut and now i am going all 1950’s on your asses. So, because at the moment i don’t want to post something that may damage my integrity,
JOKES!
its not like i haven’t been doing that since day one, but seriously i do care about my integrity these days so just this week i want to touch on a valiant subject:
~MARRIAGE/LURVE~
Not my “lurve” though, i have never been in love. I do believe though, that I once felt the mutual happiness and respect for a man that MAY one day blossom into Love, but alas we will have to wait and see......
This story begins with a invitation, harmless looking enough, addressed to Bridie in the letter box. Now, my excitement for receiving mail is PRETTY intense so i rip open the envelope to find one of those glitter incrusted cards inviting me to help a couple, who shall hence forth be known as “crazy and co.”, “celebrate” their wedding. I had one of those “deer in the headlights” moments of WTF are you SERIOUS and i will tell you why:
a) I have known “crazy and co.” for literally 3months
b)“crazy and co.” are 20years old
c)“crazy and co.” still LIVE with their PARENTS
d)“crazy and co.” are PREGNANT
NOW do you get it?? i am SHOCKED/ HORRIFIED that this is ACTUALLY happening in the 21st c. I have been told that they are “the cutest couple” and “completely in love” but seriously, I am not sure at the tender age of twenty one can love, how can you be so certain that this is the person that you want to spend the rest of your life, bound by law too? I am aware that divorce is a perfectly acceptable outcome for couples who have come across “irreconcilable differences” like, who used who’s tooth brush, leaving tissues in pockets before putting them in the wash or musical clashes of opinion - i understand, these indeed are irreconcilable, but shouldn’t people be doing everything in their power to stop HAVING to get a divorce. I thought, that as a society we had moved past these social etiquette's as necessary markers in our life. Why can’t these people move out and live a life together without this expensive wedding full of people (like me) who barely know them?
I hate, also, the way “crazy and co.” said
“we just can’t wait to spend out lives together”
For goodness sake! dosn’t a couples life together start when you have spawn growing? or even before that... when you decided to sleep together, or make out? DEAR GOD OH WHY must it be that their life together starts with marriage, does that mean couples who never get married never have a life together?
I feel sorry for “crazy and co.” They will never know what it means to be dumped, or meet all the wrong people, or have disgusting hook ups or be young a happy and free of responsibility. I mean, the other stuff is pretty shite, but its CHARACTER BUILDING!!
Thats all i have to say about “crazy and co.” There wedding is in two weeks and last night i got a phone call asking if i had a plus one, I said no and she replied:
“don’t worry hunny, you’ll be as happy as I am one day”
So crazy and co. all i have to say is
i am happy right now
i hope i am never getting married to someone just because of some spawn in my tummy and
you can take those glittery wedding invites and shove them where the sun don’t shine
i have better places to be and better people to spend my time with, who’s with me!!
peace love happiness always
Bridie
