E.G.2:While I watched my ex get a Mesopotamian lap dance…Susan Sharon made a play for Mr. Marvelous. I don’t know if I can deal with being single all over again. Every relationship has its ups and downs. My husband and I work very hard. We probably don’t spend enough damn time together. Compounded by the fact that neither of us gets enough sleep. Then again, who does? I really never imagined myself as a divorcee, you know? But I do think it’s more important to till your own soil than to go in search of greener pastures.
参考翻译:当我看着我的前任男友观看“美索不达米亚”大腿舞的时候,Susan Sharon对“不可思议”先生展开了表演。我不知道我是否还能再次能应对单身的生活。每段关系都会有起起伏伏。我老公和我工作非常努力。我也许没有足够的时间相处。而且我们睡眠都不足让事情变得更糟。不过话说回来,哪对夫妻不是如此呢?我从未想过有天自己会离婚,你知道么?但是我认为比起寻找更绿的牧场,耕耘自己的土地更重要。(不要一山望着一山高)
