Boys. One Word Says it All!

I'm angry with a boy in my class. >:( We were discussing Singapore's aging population and falling fertility rate in Chinese and our teacher asked us if we wanted to marry, and have children in the future. So J says he wants a wife, but not children. Teacher asked what if his wife wanted children. How did J respond? "Divorce her!" I got so angry. Divorce isn't a matter to joke around about! Yes, I know he was just horsing around wasn't being serious, but still! Insensitive, unthinking idiot!

Of course it doesn't help that my parents are separated. I wish he'd think about who he could hurt with that careless, even callous statement. Well I just swallowed and sucked it up. No point bringing it up; everyone would just think I'm being oh-so-girlishly-weak. Yes, I know I'm weak and emotional and stupidly sentimental, but I don't have to show it. I need to be strong, I must not let anything show, I need to be thin.

Only then will I be strong, and perfect.

  2. Yeah T_T Sigh. I'm trying not to get too mad, because I know, he wasn't thinking, it's just their nature to blurt out random crap like that... :P
