Reality check

I work with some of the craziest people in the world. My job is like general hospital mixed with Melrose Place. It is so much drama around here. I freakin' love coming to work. Everyone is coupled up. Men and women have had affairs and left their husbands/wives and fiance's. I know it sounds crazy, but it is so true. For those who don't know, I work in a hospital. It's actually a small hospital but we have big drama. Because I'm such a nosey ass I'm ALWAYS in somebody's business. But the reason I stay out of trouble is because I'm upfront with my nosiness. I go right to the source and ask questions. I don't speculate and talk behind their backs. I wanna get the scoop from the horse's mouth.

Last night I had the pleasure of meeting a new nurse that just started a few weeks ago. She is only 26 years old and her and her man have been together 4 years. I asked her if they lived together she said no. So I started joking with her and asked her what was her secret of keeping him away because I have been with mine for 4 years also and he acts like we just have to live together. She said she stays with him sometimes but not a lot and they have talked about marriage but she's not pressed about it. Now listen, I have a tendency to just blurt things out without really thinking sometimes, but I'm always blurting out what everyone else is thinking but won't say it. So I said he must be cheating on you. Everyone looked at me like I was crazy!They couldn't believe I said that. BUT, everyone was sitting on the edge of their seats listening to our conversation and wondering what her response was going to be, because of course everyone is curious about her because she is the "new girl". So anyway one of the other nurse's asked her if she was religious. Now at first I'm thinking, what the hell does that have to do with anything? ThenI realize where she is going with this...so I asked her is she religious to the point that she is not having sex. She said yes. Ding Ding Ding Ding!! That's why they don't live together because he figures if he can't get some live in coochie why try to get her to move the hell in. But I'll bet he is screwing everything he can. I know that is horible to say but you know it is the truth. Someone tried to convince me that maybe he is also religious and he feels the same way she does. I just find that so hard to believe that a 25 year old man that lives on his own is abstaining from sex.

Earlier tonight I was having a conversation with another nurse and she is about to get married on Saturday. We were talking about love and past relationships. She was telling the story of her baby's daddy. She said she remember when she begged him not to leave her. He was already fuckin some other girl. Her son was a newborn and her parents had pretty much disowned her. She was on her own. Now here it is 7 years later and he still doesn't have anything to do with her and he is still with the same girl he left her for. Now I hate to be mean BUT, the whole time she is telling the story all I could think is....She was the only white girl he had been with and he probably never took her seriously and he wasn't going to loose his family over her. So while she was loving him and being defiant to her parents, because they were racist in the first place( that's not an observation, she actually told me that) . He already was planning his escape. He left her for a black girl and has probably never had another white girl again and probably never will.

Now I don't want to offend anyone but I know a lot of black guys who say he would definitely sleep with a white girl, but he would not bring her home to his mother. I don't really agree with that because I feel like if you can't bring her home, don't even sleep with her.
