I am not sure if I hope this is all literally true or am horrified that it might all be literally true.

It does, however, fuel my adulthood-long perplexity at the emotional swoops some people are apparently willing to endure – or which are normal for them? – within a “romantic” relationship. I mean I suppose it could be possible she’d planned to spend her holidays in Cancun with someone she didn’t realize could provoke a huge scene in public by browbeating her about a career decision and they’ve never had any kind of dramatic blow up before – but some people do seem to live at an emotional intensity I find horrific. 

People are endlessly interesting.

Oh yes indeed they are. Once upon a time when I was young(er) and married there was this time when I was making more money than my husband. He was happy and quite thrilled about it and told his mother, who became very, very, very uncomfortable and said “well yes that’s nice but you should never, ever tell anybody”.
