Whitie's Aunt, a lovely girl, told Whitie,"You KNOW who you are."
Whitie thought this was funny. Of course, Whitie did not know who she was. WHO ends up like this when they know themselves????
Lovely girls don't get it, obviously.
Her Aunt's life still works with her lunches at Bloomingdales .Their men would never be abusive. Lovely girls don't take that. If so, they run home to Mother . Mother holds their hand as they go to the divorce attorney.
The Father gets big and bad and threatens the guy.
Her Aunt told her about a girl who married an Iranian guy. He turned some kind of crazy on the honeymoon. (Don't go there)
Her parents helped her get out. She was not resigned to a life of chattel.
This lovely girl was married for 3 weeks, not 30 years. Gonna be Whitie's 30 year Anniversary soon. H says 'What do you want to do to celebrate?"
