I have been mistreated by a lot of men. I have been horribly hurt by some otherwise good, but sexually conflicted, men.
Jason treats me like I am the most important thing in his life. We have been together thru some serious tragedy and we grow closer as time goes by.
So...why does it bother me so much that he has never heard of Hemingway or Steinbeck? While watching Jeopardy with Mom n I, he heard them mention "For whom the bell tolls"...and he thought they meant a song by Metallica. He had no idea it was a book.
I can't afford to be a snob, phd or not, I still wound up on food stamps and welfare.
Why does it get to me so much that he admits that 90% of the time he has no idea what Mom and I are talking about? We're in love...that should be all that matters, right?
Right?
