They say the person you marry is the most important decision of your life.
Many times, men, as their wife ages, get drawn to younger, hotter women, leaving behind the one who’s been with them since the beginning.
Scott Adams is a great example. In his last days of life, his older, wrinkled wife was the one beside him on his deathbed, crying while publicly announcing his death to the world, not the Instagram influencer he married afterward, who’s nowhere to be seen.
Be careful.
"I work late in a high-rise. Everyone ignores the cleaning crew. There’s an older guy, Marcus, who empties my trash bin every night at 7 PM. He usually keeps his head down, trying not to disturb anyone.
One night, I stopped typing. I spun my chair around. 'Marcus, I’m ordering Thai food. You want Pad Thai or Curry?'
He looked shocked. 'For me?'
We ate dinner in the conference room. He told me he has three grandkids he’s putting through school. He showed me pictures. He laughed for the first time I've ever seen.
Now, we eat dinner together every Tuesday. He told me, 'Most people look right through me. You looked at me.'
Work isn't just about deadlines; it's about the people who make the building run."

“I divorced my husband because he was a narcissist. But he had two kids from a previous marriage, Sam and Chloe.
Technically, when we divorced, I lost all legal ties to them. Their biological mom is an addict and not in the picture.
My lawyer told me, 'Walk away. Start fresh.'
I couldn't. I knew their dad would neglect them.
I spent my entire divorce settlement on a lawyer to fight for his kids. I fought for custody of children that weren't mine.
The judge thought I was insane. He asked, 'Why do you want them?'
I said, 'Because nobody else does.'
I won.
Sam is in med school now. Chloe is a teacher.
They sent me a Mother’s Day card yesterday: 'To the woman who chose us when she didn't have to.'
Biology is an accident. Parenting is a choice.”
