NOOOOOO!

one of the reasons i love to watch the home & garden network is i love to see how positively spoiled and whiny most of the couples on those househunter shows are. seriously, they cry about the dumbest things. "this isn't granite" "there is no soaker tub." "the backyard isn't the size of a football field." and woe to the world when the couple disagrees about what is important.

whatever. seems to me that if you love someone, you really don't care if you live in a trailer or under a rock, so long as you got to live with that person that you love. but that's just me.

anyway, so tonight, the couple (who are just engaged) in question is looking for a house, and they can only afford so much. and not enough to please the girl. she's wrinkling up her nose. except for the girl's parents have offered to give them more money so they can get something nicer. the girl clearly wants to take the money and get something better. but the guy is clearly uncomfortable with that.

and she's pressuring him. and i just want to scream "NOOOOOOOOOOO- don't give in to her whining!" if she can't be happy living where you can afford, then she won't ever be happy with you. if you are not enough for her- poor, then you should ditch her cuz she's a spoiled brat and she doesn't really love you. and she'll always be wanting more than you have."

now, yes, i did accept some help from my family once, but it was a need, not because i wanted something better. and it wasn't from my inlaws. and the other time in my life, i accepted substantial help from someone else, i will regret for the all rest of my life.

anyway, now i see he caved. and my head is screaming at him- "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! you FOOL!"
