Smug

Why should I be jealous of what you have? Do you even realize what you have put yourself into?

Let me break it down to you girl...

1. A boyfriend that actually does not own up to you.
2. Friends that claim you are a bad person behind your back.
3. Friends that claim to be appalled at what your ‘interesting’ preferences and actions yet have the nerve to tolerate them.
4. A family that despises you to your core for tarnishing their name and causing them shame.
5. Personal satisfaction based on things that equate to things money can buy...your user-friendly boyfriend for one.
6. A failed marriage to a man that thankfully has come to his senses.
7. Acquaintances that have lost respect at your ‘interesting acts’.
8. People you don’t know judging you as an abomination to the life of the people you love.
9. And a life-long struggle of not discovering that you built up your world with these things and these kinds of people around you.

Now tell me, what should I be jealous about? And you have the nerve to call me pathetic? Oh please. There are so many things in life to be smug about but hanging on to what you truly have is not something that appeals to my taste.

Whoever she is I hope she reads this, well said. Sounds like she deserves to be taken down a peg or two.

she really does...totally! I just hate people who really feel smug about something that they don't actually have and then has this nerve to feel sorry for you. No wonder her man treats her like an "object". If only she has the slightest idea about how people talk about her...she's the one who deserves pity and not ME.

Gawd! this woman makes me feel even more fabulous about my life.
