Aw hell! I used to say that when I was on 5th phase. Either no one ever noticed, no one ever wanted to risk my turning a confrontation around on them or no one ever objected. I'm really not sure which.
Yeah, we all have problems. But look around. Lots of other people have the same kinds of problems with nowhere near as good an excuse as we have.
20 years ago, I was not a happy camper. I remember many nights spent pacing the floor, crying inconsolably, shouting matches and endless interrogations with various lovers, no friends. I'm convinced that my husband is either a saint or he was a wicked SOB in his past life and was sent to me to pay penance. It took some time, but I'm alright now.
So, what next? My daughter tells me to be patient with her boyfriend, to whom we refer affectionately (or not) as Psycho Boy, because he's been diagnosed with 'borderline personality disorder'. "So then, he's a certified asshole? What's your point?", I ask. Sometimes she laughs, sometimes she gets very angry.
I'm sorry you're having a rough time. I wish I could tell you it gets better, but it really doesn't. You do get better at it, though.
Karate is a form of martial arts in which people who have had years and years of training can, using only their hands and feet, make some of the worst movies in the history of the world.
