Everything about everybody was very soon known by everybody else.
When you are in love- everything is romantic
Society can only hurt if you care for its opinion
It is not always easy, for a woman alone.
But we disposable women have to be realistic in this life, you know. Else we get itchy and discontented and start contemplating the kitchen knife and wondering whether it wouldn't look nicer between someone's shoulder-blades.
If someone tries to use you as a tool, you shouldn't mind it, because it is their choice and folly, not yours.
