...Because you decided to; because your parents did; because you have too much to lose; because it's "cheaper to keep her/him"; because of the kids; because you'd feel guilty if you didn't; because you made a vow; promised God; don't want to be alone; need someone to take care of you or to take care of; it's hard out there for a single person; AIDS. . .
I'll stop here... Add to the list. Let's see how may reason/excuses we can come up with. Then we'll have grounds to have a real conversation about what it means to be in a committed (or otherwise) relationship.
Looking forward to hearing your responses.
About Me
- Dr. Debra Ann Nixon
- Welcome Friends, I am Debra Nixon a woman of passion and conviction. I am very human; though, I have an abiding love for others. I am the supreme educator--I love teaching what I know. I struggle, too, to understand the things many of us do in the name of God and country. I do, however, understand how many of the rest of us stand by and permit suffering and pain. The fear of personal loss can be paralyzing. My desire, still, is that we discover and embrace the strength that will allow the higher good that we possess to move us to positive action. I am open to any ideas on how we can effect this most imperative change.” For if positive change is to come, it will be by the efforts of the fearless few. I so want to be among them.
