Very nice blog. I should link this to all the highschool bloggers that complain about how "stupid" their parents are.

Being older really opens up your mind and helps to think about other peoples perspectives instead of just looking out for yourself and thats it.

This is a great example of how one should be towards one's parents. They may seem like douches at times but they have things going on as well, its not just about the son(s)/daughter(s).

Huge respects to you.

It's true amongst Asian immigrant children, the older we get, the more we come to understand and love our parents, and respect their decisions and their sacrifices.

Amen, 5/5

You know, I was always curious as to why marriage couples end up the way they do sometimes, like how much they loved each other to get married and then it comes crashing down Just so sad
I'm curious to how they acted toward each other while they dated, just a thought

weird you said this, i think its true everywhere else in civilized world

She was not just a mother... she was a wife, a daughter. She had a life past just raising me. She was a human being with emotions that sometimes made her say things she didn't mean. She was a human being who cried when her mother passed away. She fell apart when her husband left. She was flawed, just a person, like me.


this part really impressed me the most, you have a way with words

Sad but amazing read, smix. I'm glad that your relationship with each other has grown stronger - I'm incredibly close with my mother, but I practically have no relationship with my father except when we meet up every few months to play golf. Family is important, at least to me, so hearing stories like this are incredibly moving to me. I only hope/pray that your relationship not only with your mom, but with the rest of your family, continues to grow stronger. 5/5, leg doppelganger <3

ya i have a pretty nice relationship with my mom, but barely any with my dad, and i don't want to have anything to do with him at all.

Great read, I can relate very well and hoping that my brother will soon see this point of view too. Your mom must be so proud of you.

This is something I always wondered about too... there needs to be a reason why they met and decided to get married right? From what I've gathered through questioning both of them, it was a very quick, whirlwind, forbidden romance that turned into quick marriage (they both had other serious partners when they met)... when the dust finally settled, I think the differences between the two of them started to get more and more pronounced as the initial passion fizzled.

Emotions can definitely be blinding in the beginning... because the feeling is so overwhelming I think a lot of people believe that's really all it takes but there's so much more to it than that. I think marriages are tested once certain flaws that can't be ignored start emerging as is inevitable in any long term relationship. Both people should consciously work at compromising for the other person but a lot of times this doesn't happen for a whole variety of reasons (pride, can't see past their bubble, victimizing themselves, shocked that the person they were so enamored by is actually a sloth, etc...)

I'm surprised at how many people were able to relate to my story but it touches me to know that. Thank you all for your kind words.

P.S. happy birthday boes!
