I wasn't ignoring you. Your point was noted. I don't respond to every single post when I make a thread. Besides other posters gave you props, chill out

It doesn't pay to be a good person in general.

Well,

with posts like these, you apparently aren't worried about losing your "good girl" status......

Nice to know you "noted" my post, but without saying so on the thread (or a dm) how would I know?

Not to mention, instead of going with what I and others of like mind said, you keep going on and on with your original assertion.

If you were just venting when you started the thread, that would be one thing. But now you appear to be ruminating - which is not a wise thing to do.

I would just hate to see you become your own worst enemy

You are right, I don't know if this would last. But looking in from outside, it sure looks like she has it made.

Anyway, this was just a question I was pondering today.
Kardashain gets to live it up for a short time before she's yesterday's news, just like Paris Hilton. And when her looks fade, the aftermath won't be pretty.

Elizabeth Taylor was a beautiful rich woman who cycled hrough her share of powerful men, some of them married. But was she happy? Arguably not.

ETA: Why are y'all beating up on this girl ? People have moments like this all the time, give her a break.

Girl, this is par for the course on city data.
Sometimes when you make a post, people draw things that were not even there, make assumptions, take one sentence of your post and generalize from it whilst ignoring 10 other lines of information, accuse you of "ruminating" when you are "clarifying" your comment or responding to others. It is what it is. When you post on a public forum, you can't control what feedback you get.

I don't think anyone is "beating up on" peacelillies

I do think she's been here long enough to know regulars will dish out the tough love in order to help a poster out who seems stuck on an idea or inaccurate belief

Personally, I wish her only the best and that she choose that for herself

I haven't read all the other posts, but the original post reminds me of the "nice guys finish last" posts. The guy gets fed up with the "bad boys" getting all the girls, money, status, etc. and does...something.

These "bad" people have traits that often lead them to a level of success. As the OP mentioned with the Real Housewives lady, she obviously didn't care much that her boyfriend was married. The relationship made her happy, but most would feel guilty about dating a married man/woman.

You just have to be happy with yourself. It doesn't matter what others do as long as you're happy with yourself.

Thinking that Karma would catch up to others who have done wrong is a common misconception. I once believed that same line of b.s. I was very wrong; it's disappointing & disturbing when people who have screwed over others, cheated, slandered, etc still somehow manage to live the "good life".....
