New Study...

So I know I did not post a blog yesterday, but that is simply for the fact that I am fighting a wicked head cold and frankly the thought of having to sit up for any length of time sounded about as appealing as having my bikini line waxed by Helen Keller. But, with the power of a pot of coffee and ALOT of Tylenol, I am here bringing you my daily bitchfest.

So, while listening to the radio, I heard there was a study done to see what percentage of men and women were more likely to leave their spouses if the spouse developed a debilitating or terminal illness such as MS or cancer. While I was shocked at the actual numbers, I was not really surprised at the results. The study showed that 20% of men were likely to leave if the wife fell ill, while only 3% of women were. To break it down, that’s 1 in every 5 men as opposed to 3 in every 100 women.

ARE YOU F*@%ING KIDDING ME!?!?!?! What kind of lower lifeform leaves their spouse WHEN THEY GET CANCER?! Did they change the marriage vows since I got married 3 years ago? Cause last time I checked it said “til DEATH do us part”, not “until you become a liability do us part”. Is this what the world has come to? A bunch of self absorbed twits who are only happy if they have a Stepford Wife (or Husband for that matter) that they can dispose of whenever something better comes along?

But alas, the world is full of egocentric Dorian Gray’s, so these incidents are not uncommon. My husband was friends with a girl who had a STROKE at 19 from the birth control she was on. While she was in the hospital recovering, her husband served her with divorce papers!

That is probably the sickest, most self-centered thing I have ever heard. It’s not a wonder that over 50% of marriages end up in divorce with selfish pricks like this tying the knot. If you have your head stuck so far up your own a$$ that you can tickle your tonsils, you may wanna reconsider wrapping someone else's life up in your narcissism. Do the world a favor and fall into a lake. We could use the extra air for people who actually deserve to breathe.
