“Rhea, I’m telling you now, don’t ever get married.”
It’s not very often that I get this advice from married friends (Thank God for that!). Only when there’s trouble in their marriage.
Of course, I’m for marriage and all that. No doubt about it.
So, why give this kind of advice:
It’s either…
1. …there’s another woman;
2. …there’s another woman; or
3. …there’s another woman.
Of my friends who have had problems in their marriage (or relationships), all of them were because of the presence of “another woman.”
It’s true.
So, you ask, what is my point?
None. I am not trying to make a point.
Actually, I’m quite confused.
It’s just a contrast to what relatives ask during reunions or get-togethers:
“O Rhea, ilang taon ka na nga ba?”
“(muffled answer) po.”
“May boyfriend ka ba?”
“Ngayon po, wala.” My standard answer.
“Aba, mag-asawa ka na!”
“Opo, next week po.”
ANYWAY…I should have titled this entry: Of Marriage, Men and Confusion.
