I have been reading a book called “Don’t Sweat The Small Stuff in Love”” lately that has a bunch of common sense suggestions about not getting ourselves worked up over insignificant speed bumps in your relationship. For the most part it is a good read, and although I am only half way through it, I can already suggest it to anyone who is in a tumultuous relationship.
Where I struggle a little bit is, sometimes it is a grey area as to whether something is small or not. Let’s say you are deeply in love with someone, and think about them a lot throughout the day. You have committed to spending a lifetime making that person happy, and just recently recommitted to that end. Now lets say you find out this person is saving her affections for another guy. Actually I am not sure how many guys there are at this point. But I do know that she has been openly talking to some guy named Justin, and another guy named Keith. Is this a small thing that I should not sweat? I mean WTF? I put in a hard days work every day, turn the purse strings over to her, and really do try to let her know how much she means to me, and this is the thanks I get. Multiple guys serenading her with Birthday wishes on the internet, and her making plans to meet up with at least one of them and have a three way with another dude named Chuck E . Now I am thinking of taking all the decorations & props I have put together to give her a spooktacular birthday party and piling them high in the back yard and setting them all ablaze. Maybe top the pile off with those assless cowboy chaps she likes me to wear so much…. Sweat this sweety!
