I'm so proud of my Girlfriend. She is known as Yekefeh (I don't think we're allowed to post real names here. Or I'm not at least I'm not. I'm new and have hardly used this post, despite my length of....member...ship).
Anyways, my Girlfriend is one of the people that I admire. She is doing what she can to live life the way she wants to. As most of you live in the real world as well, I'm sure you can attest at how hard that is to do. Especially when you have some customer constantly trying to demean your status in this world when you're on stage, for all to see. Consistently on the 'wrong' nights.
She puts up with it night after night to come home to things that could set her off (i.e. cat box full, my clothes on the floor, some crap I've spent hard earned cash buying littering the house she's just cleaned). Yet, all she wants to do is crawl into bed, wrap her arms around me and "feel human/protected/warmth" for a little bit. This is the small comfort that she has until she has to wake up and deal with bills, trolls on SW and life in general.
She has thought about giving up many times, as all of you must know, and leaving the biz (both of them), but she's still here. Willing to face her fears about long trips to foreign places, with only a few friends, who she might barely know, there to keep her sane.
She puts herself in situations that may not make her comfortable, or even downright scary, in order to scratch out some money in order to make rent/pay the IRS/whatever health emergency is happening this week. I myself have not done that in quite sometime. Unless you count working with her.
She is adventurous (although painfully cautious) and strong-willed. I love her for these reasons and more (she knows most of them), but I thought it might be nice to share with you lot, who go through the same crap she does night after night, just how much I admire my Girlfriend.
K (I think that's how she's posted my name, so that's how I shall as well)
PS. I did get a bj before she left and I haven't done anything terrible, so this is not a "plea".

I enjoyed the sweetness of your post until that line. lol, sorry, but that threw me off for a second!
She talks about how great you are on this board, and your post just confirmed her description of you. You both are very lucky to have one another
