Why I ... Married George
Looking back to the day i married George, i now realize it was the biggest mistake of my life. When I first met him, he was everything i could have ever wanted in a man. He was handsome, polite, funny, and gave me everything i needed at the time. He was the love of my life. I thought we were going to grow old and happy together. I thought he was going to be able to provide for me, but boy was i wrong. I should have listened to the first signs of trouble. On our wedding day, he had to barrow a suit from someone because he couldn't afford his own. I should have used that as a sign of trouble and unhappiness in the future. I didn't listen to my gut. When I married him, i thought we would be in love forever no matter the situation. As time went on, i started getting irritated and resentful. I always hated and blamed myself for marrying such a poor man. I always wished the situation was different and that we had money. I should have married someone who could always support me mentally and financially. Money was such a deciding factor in a man for me and George didn't have that. As i got older and needed more and more money, i realized how useless George was to me. I married George because of the amazing man he was but i needed a man who could support me and love me at the same time.

ReplyDeleteMyrtle,
ReplyDeleteI am at a loss of words for what to say to you. The night that you were hit still haunts me. I was in disbelief the night that it happened and miss you dearly. Gatsby will pay for what he has done. He is a coward who deserves justice.
Sincerely,
Tom
