Been Awhile
I havent posted in quite awhile. I am not sure if people may realize this, but usually an extended absence of posts signifies relationship troubles.
C moved over to be with me in Korea. I was starting my new job and with it came a spacious 3 bedroom apartment. She was sure that she could find work in the local village, where see had worked before. We were both crossing our fingures that she may fill a vacancy at my university.
Unfortunately things didnt go according to plan. Nothing serious, but C's bad attitude and her refusal to commute to work made the situation impossible. Apartently her way of dealing with an impossible situation is to throw a drunken temper tantraum. I should have known as this has been C's way of dealing with life as long as I knew her.
There was always an excuse like "trouble at my job", "not feeling well", or "money trouble". I slowly began to realize there would always be an excuse and our lives would never be filled with joy.
Heres the punchline. C left to go back to Canada in December and sure enough a position popped up at my job. However, by this time C's constant tantraums and shit attitude had damaged our relationship beyond repair. Had she just chilled out, everthing would have been fine. It is clear that the lesson was lost on her, but I will carry it with me for the rest of my life. We can never control what life gives us, but we can control how we react to it.
