It sucked, always. But I was the very person the author describes in book. Trying to solve others' problems was my obligation, which I suffer a lot. But after graduation from the university, my work helped me pack confidence and courage up. I usually question myself,"why am I so coward?" Because I was afraid to lose every friends. Gradually the lesson life taught me is that what matters is quality not quantity. When I tried firstly, rejection gave birth to a new me and a sudden sense of calm,of contentment led a charmed comfort. It's so cool to follow my heart.

Rejection was more difficult for me , fortunately is not now. I'm in the same lucky with the writer who has a reliable life partner. Marriage is an art for sure and hear me out. My husband is regarded as a loyal and honest friend by me. He is always fond of telling the truth that I should change another bigger trousers. To be honest I really want to kick him off. But ok I accept the suggestion standing from my best friend's perspective. After all I don't want to be an ugly woman. I must acknowledge that the process is struggling. Maybe the unhealthy marriage is making up perfectly before your husband getting up. Life is not easy so be ture for both of you and trust each other to achieve it.
