AN EPIC TALE THAT IS ACTUALLY PRETTY DEPRESSING

[personal profile] tyger66 2014-09-16 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, apparently it was a ~different time~ or some shit like that, idk. My grandmother says the girl was a homewrecking gold-digger, since she knew that the man she was sleeping with was married. And my mother feels similarly, since by the time she met her they were both adults.

What I hear, though, is a story about a teenage girl who was taken advantage of by a smooth-talking manipulator of a man who in his late 40's, well over twice her age. From what I understand the man could "sell ice to an eskimo"; very charismatic, very charming. I'll never know all the details, but for me it paints an even more tragic picture than the one my mother and grandmother see. I understand that it's really hard to feel sorry for someone that, as they saw it, stole their husband and father; it's why they often gloss over the fact that the girl was so young when it started, which bothers me quite a bit. But he seems to have actually settled down with her; they've been married ever since, and he's certainly too old to be seducing any underage girls with his "charms" anymore, so I generally just keep my head down and hope no more skeletons are discovered once he actually dies.

to be clear, my reaction was mostly directed at the grandfather, not the lady.

and yeah, sounds like a mess that it's wise to stay clear of.
