Marriage is hard
December 12, 2006
…and don’t forget it. One of the hardest things about not having a lot of money is that you have to count on your counterpart (or family) to help. This means you rely on them for a lot of things (chores, help, support) and they rely on you for a lot of things (money!). Well when any of these little things being relied on do not meet any of the others expecations, well, a fight ensues. And when you live in a one bedroom apartment, fighting is bad. I mean, fighting is bad when you have a lot of space, but put two angry people in a very small space and the fighting is bound to be intolerable. So what, praytell, is the solution? I’m not sure yet. I guess we could just be nicer to each other and start being more considerate and meeting each other’s expectations. Ooooor….we could just get a bigger place. Yeah…that sounds easier. Definitely. Much easier.
