Soap Opera

Several months ago, I talked about my friend K and all her man troubles. She was once my best friend in the world.

Then she met a new man.

He actually was a friend to both of us. I had known them both for quite some time. She left her abusive ex and started dating T.

T left his abusive wife just days before moving in with K.

I thought they would be good for each other. Boy, was I wrong.

K & T both started acting very possessive. Neither one was allowed to leave the house without the other. (Example: Asshole needed a ride someplace. He called and asked them since I was not at home. He had to wait over an hour so they could find a babysitter. It was only a 15 minute ride!)

After K & T started living together, the ex-wife C started stalking them both. She would follow them around at all hours of the day and night.

Vehicles were stolen back and forth. Several houses were TP'd. A billboard (with the ex-wife's mother on it) was paintballed.

Lots of screwy stuff.

Then there was a major divorce/custody battle fight. Insults were traded, accusations were flung. It got way out of hand.

K had managed to purchase a nice double-wide in a decent park. Completely paid for it.

T talked her into buying a house. $1500 a month. They used the double-wide as a down payment.

About 3 months ago, K kicked T out. Told him she was sick of the crap between him and C.

She lost the house after that, because she has not worked in over a year, and he was paying all the bills.

She moved into a tiny little apartment above the local bar. Did I mention she has 3 children under the age of 10? She also moved a new man into her life. I don't know where she met D.

Anyway, T came by and said he was moving to Texas. We all said goodbye and I didn't see him again.

The other night, Asshole comes home from the bar and tells me he saw C at the bar. T was meeting her there and they are getting back together.

I was shocked.

Then today, at the County Fair, I saw T's dad. I asked him about T & C. He said T was back with K, but C was running around the fair somewhere. He didn't know what was going on.

I have decided to stay way clear of the whole thing.
