I know that you're kidding...But to be perfectly honest...He and I just were two very different people...
I mean, I thought opposites were supposed to attract and all that, but you have to have SOMETHING in common...
We were both construction workers, we met on a job at Proctor And Gamble, building an extension to the Ivorydale plant...Being in the same line of work, and being able to work together when it came to remodeling and maintaining the house, seemed to be the ONLY thing we had in common...But, as far as what kind of people we are...Well...He is very materialistic, shallow and always needing attention...He also lives on confrontation and feeds on turmoil...He would start fights everyday, just because he got some kind of excitement out of it...I have a 'head-sized' dent in the side of our old truck because he decided to get into a fight with someone at a bar (I hate bars, btw)...Basicly, he is a loud, obnoxious, overbearing, bully...
I was young when we got married...Stayed married for 17 years...Then got out the DAY that Seri asked me, "Why is he still here?"....It was obvious to everyone that we didn't get along...The 'keeping it together for the kids' thing doesn't work...The kids aren't buying it any better than you're faking it...
The funny thing is...I knew from the beginning exactly how the Scorpio/Leo thing plays out...But, I kept telling myself "It's just astrology...It doesn't really mean anything".....As it turned out...Our entire relationship can be read about in ANY (reputable) astrological compatibility chart....It was exactly as it says...
[/Personal Moment]
Anyway...We're all having a good time now :)
