First of all, a little chocolate goes a long way.
Second, there are no excuses for not understanding the things that really matter
Third, not understanding what matters is a deal breaker. period.
This all coming to mind as certain individuals who may or may not be considered 'in the picture' are providing far less than the required amount of support for the things that really matter. Should someone that you are sort of dating be supporting your child in his/her talent show? Is that too much to ask or should this be reserved for parents and official family members only. What if you've been "seeing" this person for over a year, but you know it's not serious , exactly, but they're sitting at your house about 86% of the time?
I would LOVE to hear some feedback on this one.
