Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills. Everyone else is acting, but you are too involved in the drama

Pictures and text/Sit back and watch the clouds rise

Life is like a play, there is no rehearsal or director, only live broadcast, you are the protagonist, if the performance fails, it fails.

When I first met Xiaoxia a few years ago. She is a direct seller of certain cosmetics. She visits customers in our clothing market every day, so she often comes to my store. In this way, we became familiar with each other after going back and forth. It made a very good impression on me at first. Just as the boss next door praised her: Although this girl is not particularly beautiful, she is very beautiful. But the makeup is good, the clothes are well matched, and the temperament is quite good. He is also very talkative, and he is a person who can get things done.

Later, due to her enthusiasm, I became her member and bought some products for my own use. Join them in their fun women's salon activities. Xiaoxia is the protagonist every time in the salon, speaking enthusiastically and communicating with everyone. She works hard and is promoted quickly because of her good business. Gradually, I also came to like this sunny and hard-working woman, and I also lamented that Xiaoxia's positive energy of self-improvement, hard work and enterprising spirit was beyond my reach.

Xiaoxia’s husband runs a car repair shop, and his business is pretty good. She is not short of money. She always says that as a woman, not only should she take care of her family, but she should also have her own career. A woman must have her own income and be financially independent so she doesn't look at other people's opinions... I admire her character of self-improvement.

Later she met a group of motivational speaking organizations from Taiwan. She said there were two teachers there who were both handsome and liked her, and she enjoyed spending time with them. I was fascinated by their talents and wonderful speeches. During that time, Xiaoxia worked hard to attract students to attend classes for those teachers and buy their expensive courses and books.

She always told me with a happy face. Those two teachers liked her so much and loved her so much. How to say sweet love words to him...

I said to her seriously: Don't forget that you are a woman with a family, a husband and children, don't get caught up in these illusory sweetness. You are not on the same screen. These things are not interesting to us married women. You have to know that you can't attract students if you give them. Maybe all this is not so beautiful...

Later, because I stopped opening a store, there were fewer opportunities to meet her. Sometimes I would contact her on the phone to know that she was doing well.

Once she actually told me that she wanted to divorce her husband because of that master. The master liked her so much. They were in love, and she was happy with the Master. I was shocked, thinking she was just talking about it before, but I didn't expect it to be true now.

I said to her sincerely: They are all motivation masters and eloquent speakers. Can you believe what they say? If you help them attract customers as a hobby, it's okay for everyone to chat and have fun together, but you must not be part of the drama and don't take it seriously! Don’t forget that you have children, a husband and a family. What will happen to your children if you get divorced? There is no need to take this risk. If he knew that you had nothing after the divorce, would he still be so kind to you? They may just be looking for helpers.

No contact for a long time. Later I met him occasionally in the supermarket. She has changed so much, her body has gained weight and her body shape has changed drastically, and her face no longer has the delicate makeup it once had. A woman in her thirties walked into the pile of middle-aged aunts but couldn't pick them out. She told me that she no longer makes cosmetics. She has been divorced and her husband was angry and threw away all her products. There is no money left to purchase goods. She was divorced and left home. Although the house was bought by her husband and her after they got married, they earned money from running a car repair shop. But she also failed to score a point. Because when I bought the house, I wrote my father-in-law’s name alone...

I cursed angrily: Why are they all such beasts? I told her that although it was bought after your marriage, you won’t get a share, but if you call your husband’s brother and say: You and his brother are divorced, and the house is in his father’s name, then he also has a share. They set up a trap and won't give you a room, and you can't let your husband and his family live in peace. You are heartless and I am unjust. The society is so cruel where the weak can prey on the strong.

Because of the divorce, my father-in-law and his family always said something bad about their mother in front of their children. The child ignored her.

The two motivation masters rarely met him anymore. She had nothing now, and eating was a problem. Once she stayed with a drug-addicted boy for half a day just to have a meal...

Eating During the period, I advised her to find a job to solve her food and clothing problems first, and then slowly switch to a better job. How about you come to our company for an interview tomorrow? It’s better to use your previous energy and work hard! Stabilize yourself first and then make plans for yourself.

But she did not listen to the advice. Fantasy about those two motivational gurus. I'm totally pissed off, you've gotten to this point now, don't get too hung up on it. You are already divorced, if he is really good to you and really loves you. In your current situation, and you are so rich, I will at least give you some money to help you solve your survival problem first. Now that the marriage is divorced, why should he still be worried about you? Let me tell you again that they are just acting, and you are too involved in the drama.

She actually said to me. One of the teachers bought her a necklace, put it on his secretary’s neck and took a picture to show her, saying that he bought it for her and would give it to her later. He took a picture of the car key and showed it to her, saying that he would also buy a big one for him. A very beautiful house for her...

I am even more angry. This woman in love really has zero IQ. She believes such low-level lies. She is really hopeless. To be honest as a friend, I still want to win over her. I said: Don't believe this. If he bought it for you, there is no need to wear it on others and then take pictures of you, why didn't he just give it to you? Do you still want it after someone else has used it? What kind of car or house? Now you are married and divorced because of him, you have no place to eat, and he is still lying to you. Wake up! Stop dreaming. She was in such a deep dream that I couldn't wake her up by scolding her.

After paying for the meal, I left her in a hurry. Even as a good friend, I could only treat her to one meal. I will still rely on her to live in the future. I think she's really gone crazy and there's no cure. I don't want to meet people like this anymore.

A long time later, I took my child and met her again in a lingerie store where she worked. She told me that she and the child’s father were living together again. I asked her immediately: Are you remarried? She said no, her husband would not remarry, she would give her father-in-law money to buy vegetables and cook meals, and she would pick up and drop off the children when her ex-husband was busy. I'm speechless. I said: Your husband doesn’t remarry, and he doesn’t even worry about giving you money to buy groceries. If he doesn’t remarry, you are no longer a member of this family. His money and money have nothing to do with you. You are a free nanny and free bed companion! What is your life like here? He will kick you out at any time when you are no longer useful or when he finds a suitable partner. Where will you go then?

As a result, within two days, she called me and said that she would not go to work there because she felt that working hours were not free. I almost fainted. I said: What are your plans in the future? She even said: Now I watch TV every day in my child’s father’s store. The TV series is so funny. Also let me go and play with her when I have time. I fainted...

I said: Does he pay you a salary? No.

Is he remarried to you? No?

I immediately hung up the phone and deleted all her contact information.

Later, every time I passed her ex-husband’s car repair shop, I turned around and saw her still watching TV with her deformed, gray face...until the place was demolished to the ground by urban construction...

Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills. Everyone else is acting, but you are too involved in the drama.

Woman, you don’t work hard. No one gives you the life you want.
