Do you like Papa?
My three year old son posted this question to me.
I asked him the same question back and he nodded his head without hesitation.
Sorry son, I did not answer your question because I could not bring myself to say yes.
婚姻,不管曾经多么喜欢,如今都变成了反感。
曾经的激情随着久而久之的熟悉都被冲淡了。
对彼此的信任和尊重在一念之差化为乌有。
感觉和感情根本都不靠谱。
与其问我喜不喜欢他这个人,倒不如问我喜不喜欢他的钱(收入)。
没钱真的不配谈感情。No money no honey.
If you ask me if I ever loved him, I can only say I didn’t choose to marry him out of love. I chose him because he has a stable job and income and his physic fitted my ideal type.
I can only say I don’t like your papa as much as before.
I don’t detest him but I get irritated and we can’t have a proper conversation without me raising my voice after having to repeat myself five times.
Your mother was too desperate to start a family and went with an acceptable and safe option. Anyone who doesn’t smoke and gamble like my first husband gets a passing grade.
I can live under the same roof as your father but I can’t sleep in the same room.
I can live with your father’s untidiness. A helper can easily solve this problem.
I can definitely live with controlling the family’s finances.
Do I like your papa? Do I like the bread he put on the table? I guess I do.
