Confused Ex-Girlfriend unhappy with Conservative Husband, Contacts me!
I was contacted recently by an ex-girlfriend of mine. I was kind of shocked, things were great when we dated but when I broke up with her, things got bad fast.
Somewhat shocked that she contacted me, I felt intrigued. A Quick look at her profile showed that she was religious and conservative. I can admit I may have leaned right and was brought up in a religious household but now I lean left and am atheist. So what's up? Suddenly, she has recalled the past and she has never been happier with anyone other than me! dang, just what I wanted to hear but it has been 20 years since we last saw each other. She is married and so am I! but I wanted to listen to what she had to say.
Apparently her Fox News watching husband, who she divorced several years ago due to his drug and alcohol are again having problems. He works side jobs but they got evicted from their apartment due to him not paying the rent for several months. They moved to a new place two months ago and he is already hasn't paid the rent. He doesn't pay any bills, so I inquire just what does he do with his money? It is unknown. So I suggest that the drug or alcohol issue has probably returned, "no" she said, she would know. But she tells me she has had it with him and she is basically reliving her past.
It turns out, she is conservative as well, she believes we should all say the pledge "under god" and if we or the President doesn't believe in the constitution, we should go to Canada, she has hairy Bear arms... I just found it too funny. So I explained I was now atheist and explained that I thought it was funny how people get all caught up in talking points. So suddenly she changed her stance and was not really that religious and was in the other room while her husband, who can't seem to pay the rent, was watching Fox news, lol!
Later in one of our messages, she admits that she's not racist but doesn't think blacks and whites should mix??? I think it's funny when people say "I'm not racist but..." and then put their foot in their mouth. So I explained I did not share that feeling and of course, when I did, she changed her tune as well.
I think she's been brain washed by the Conservative view, should I start bringing up liberal causes? Let her know how happy I am that "Stephanie and Linda" were able to tie the knot? That my friend who works for the Catholic University can finally get birth control coverage for the issue they have been having? That Cherrios really is a cool cereal?
