Thoughts That Touch My Heart

"Ladies... Why do we get ourselves so mixed up that we have the expectations of the benefits of marriage, and we behave as though we are married, when, in fact, we are just in a relationship... and, sometimes, we're in a not-too-good-one at that?? We invest all this stuff into a so-called relationship that is really intended for marriage... things like money, sex, and emotional attachment. Then, we wonder why we get used, abused, and the door is slammed in our face. We need to stop investing into a relationship as though it is a marriage. It's true... you can have the door slammed in your face in a marriage, too. But, at least you have to go through the legal process and detoxify yourself while you are sitting on the curb!"-Doris Little
