I would sorta think that giving a choice between being supported by
a. a spouse who loves you
and
b. an employer who wants to use you
That a sane person would prefer option a. But that's just me.
People with high-paying, high-status jobs, like this woman used to have, probably feel like they get more out of their job than they have to put in it.
Now she gets to learn how the other half lives.
And no, I did not put ME into the conversation. I used MY experiences to discuss the TOPIC. The topic being X.
Person A - I think X is true.
Person B - I think X is false, because of these things I have seen or experienced.
Person C - That says something bad about you, Person B.
For me to use my experiences to talk about topic X, is not an invitation to start talking about me.
Unless, of course, you want to point out how awesome I am.
I will give you a pass on that, because I know it is hard to NOT talk about my awesomeness which is so awesomely awesome that I am constantly unable to keep it hidden.
