Stupidity or Just in Love?

I've got a friend who shares her lovelife experiences frequently. After hearing her stories, you'll be amazed on how much she loves her husband. But damn, how could anyone be so stupid and completely blind? Her husband isn't responsible enough to build them a home, to provide for the family, or to end his singledom. There was even a time when he did her physical harm. It hurts to know that one of your friends is suffering from this kind of emotional and physical abuse, yet all you can do is listen and give advice. Sometimes we do things because we think its the right thing to do, even when everyone else tells you, you're wrong. I (and some of her friends) repeatedly told her to just leave him (like forever), but she couldn't. She wouldn't accept it. I asked her, why not? Her answer, "I'm tired of arguing" or "I'm used to it". But deep down, the underlying message is "I freakin' love him it hurts!". Maybe that was the crux of her problem. She loved him too much. I easily emphatize with people I know, that's why I usually asked myself, what if it happens to me? How would I react? How will it affect me as a person? What if I end up with someone just like my friends' husband? It is so conflicting that I told myself, maybe I should not get married afterall? Hahaha!! (Sorry, John! I'm just kidding!) What happens to my married life then? Aha! Life is so unpredictable! Only you are accountable for the actions that you take. So, I guess, I should marry the soonest? Oh wait, wedding preparations is costly! Hahahaha!!!  Well, no matter how hard we try, some things will always remain out of our control. Let's trust God with His plans.
