10 Days of Bullshit Challenge
★Day 03- An experience you're not proud of, but has made you the person you are today.
I'll just go ahead and say it....I'm not proud of the fact that I got married while still in college...my senior year. I did finish college right on time, but I married a man who was certainly not the best choice for me. I think I was in love with the idea of being "in love" as all of my college friends were getting diamonds and planning weddings.
I met BH when I was a freshman and we dated off and on throughout my college years, but not seriously. For a while, I blew him off and didn't see him at all, but then he reappeared and we got back together. He usually held a steady job, which meant money for a poor college student.....
We married in a beautiful ceremony at my home church in Cheraw. Right before walking down the aisle, I told my brother, "I don't want to do this," but he said, "Everybody is here, you may as well," so I did. We stayed together for two years and three months, but I was miserable about the whole time.
I know that everything happens for a reason, and BH came into my life to show me what I wanted in a mate and what I definitely did not want in a mate. He taught me what I would tolerate and what I would not stand for. My time with him made me realize that I deserved someone who was educated and had an established career, who didn't take me for a fool, and who loved me (and only me) and was willing to put aside
his single-boy ways....
Thank you BH....
