Poll of the Day > Happy wife, happy life.

(+) Yeah! (+)

But are YOU happy?

No. I'm still having flashbacks about being bullied back in school. I'm still having flashbacks about my mother refusing to learn any fucking English in order to even know what I was saying. I'm still having flashbacks about my siblings, my father, and my cousins accusing me of being a compulsive liar about all the bad stuff that was happening. I'm still having flashbacks about a lot of people in my life having refused to get to know me at all. I'm still having flashbacks about a lot of people, especially my family despite having lived with me for decades, making assumptions about me, and bullying me for not acting like those assumptions were true. I remember being beaten over the head with a book whenever I was caught reading it. I remember being concussed over again when my family caught me writing for school. I think I remember my uncle having dropped me on the head as a child, just for the fun of it, while my mother did nothing to help. I think I remember a lot of crazy louts just stalking me over again while my family just refused to believe anything I said.

Forgive me if I am using the word, "flashbacks", incorrectly besides.

My needs are simple, so yeah.

I have never aspired to happiness. The pursuit of "happiness" as a concept has been one of the greatest causes of unhappiness in all of human history. People who feel they're not "happy enough" just make themselves more miserable.

I pursue "contentment". And I am content.

Deng. These are deep responses i wasnt expecting

If you're in a relationship with somebody whose happiness doesn't make you happy, don't marry them.

happy spouse, happy house

that way it applies both ways

But what about someone with two knives?

Yeah, modern western society (especially america) is obsessed with the idea that we need to be happy all the time and that something's wrong if you aren't. There are a full range of emotions and life isn't just about chasing your personal happiness at all cost

Im not drowning in sadness, so I guess Im ok

I'm happy, because I don't have a wife. :)

i've read some studies that say married men report the highest rates of happiness.

probably because they turned their wives into their mommies.

I haven't been in a relationship in a long time but I can't imagine wanting your gf/wife/whatever being like a mom. I can do my own laundry, cooking, etc. I don't need to be babied. Like how are guys ok with being treated like children?
