I met my best friend James when we were in our second year of college. At this time he was still dating his "highschool sweetheart" Katie.
Me and James did really well, always hung out, Katie did the usual woman thing where she leaves him and then begs for him back, he always gave her the benefit of the doubt, so I gave him the benefit of the doubt. He always did better than I did so I figured he was smarter.
We stayed friends after we graduated. I found a good job (90k starting, that was four years ago), he eventually went on to grad school. I never went to grad school, much less law school, so I don't necessarily know all the lingo. He also finally gave in and married Katie (right after round 27 of dump and beg)
He told me the other day that he was dropping out for her. She was pissing and moaning about him never being home and he prioritized her over getting his degree pursuing his dream job.
How do people even do that? I understand her motives: she wants to drain him of his money and energy (like she has for the last ten years or so) until she gets bored and finds another man to drain.
How does a man give up on his dreams like that?
