Funny thing is I read a post from Ivory about how successful people with degrees are more important than common laborers and house wives.
So I guess she should bow in my presence... Hahaha. I am roughly 2 weeks away from finishing my third college degree and have turned a childhood of poverty into a business the nets more annually than most make in a lifetime.
Just to clear it up I do not agree with her statement I just find it funny that she only applies it to herself.
Oh yeah.. the 7 years of counseling was on a monthly basis. 84 trips to work out 15 or so years of garbage is pretty fast. 84 hours is barely a week and a slice of my work life.....
I've never said people with degrees are more important than common laborers. Nor are people with money important because they have it. Sometimes, they can be some of the most screwed up of the bunch.
As to housewives, I said I see no value in being one. Times have changed. We don't need one person home to make it work anymore. Our workloads have been reduced to the point we have lots of time and options for what to do with it. It has nothing to do with the value of the person but the value of what they do and that has nothing to do with how much they make. One of the most valuable professions I can think of is garbage collector. Without those men and women on those trucks, we'd be waist deep in our own refuse. They make civilized life possible in cities.
Not that you care one iota for anything I say but I'd suggest you finish counseling before you try to answer the question of whether or not you can have a successful relationship with someone when the relationship started with both of you cheating on your spouses. Until you get to the bottom of why you chose to cheat rather han free yourself, you're likely to repeat the same mistakes.

I was a "home maker" for 16 years before I went to work part-time 10 years ago. I work only part-time so that I can continue to take care of my home - and I don't mean the house. I take care of my man, my kids, my marriage, my friends, my neighbors and my community. Being a homemaker may be something YOU see no personal value in, but BELIEVE ME, I have reaped a huge harvest from what I have sown and would never go back to change a thing.

Boney, do you remember the defining moment when you realized it was over, even if not on paper?
Actually I do. I was sitting on my bed listening to the soon to be ex screaming at the top of her lungs from the shower how she can never figure out why she chose to marry a worthless POS like me. All because we were out of soap. My head fell I cried(which I rarely do) and said why am I allowing myself to be treated this way. I started contacting lawyers and asset protection firms.
By the way this was 3 or 4 months before I met the former mistress. I really became complacent as our relationship developed. It is amazing what you can put up with as long as you know for a few hours a week you can be happy.
