Maggie's Farm

I was recently inspired to look up my very first childhood crushes. Not passing fantasy but serious heartfelt lust / "what would it be like to be married to them" crushes. They were cute and quiet girls with “emotional stability, dependable character and ambition” (ambition in that they were above average students). They were from 3 different cities and schools. I hadn’t thought much about them in many years, but as I said, was recently inspired to.

Through the magic of some long lost contacts and internet resources I found all three women. I was expecting housewife, pre-school teacher, nurse.. lots of kids.. stuff like that. But what I found out disturbed me.

All three have kept their maiden names. Only one appears to have a child (one daughter). And all three are today... attorneys. All three. No kidding. What are the odds?

Here’s the punchline: I hate attorneys. I avoid them like the plague. On blogs or as neighbors, okay, but doing business with them or living with them no friggin way.

Is there anybody who knows what this means? I am quite disturbed by this.

I liked most of my teachers. But that was a long time ago. Don't know how it is today.

My first lawyer experiences:
1. A prominent lawyer’s kid at the newspaperboy’s shack was a real asshole, his sister an arrogant pris.
2. The greased up pervert I mentioned here at MF a few weeks back who now teaches law.
3. My girlfriend was ripped off by her atty (a debt issue) – with the evidence clear and obvious. We had to threaten him but he never quit trying to weasel himself out of trouble.
4. My new in-law’s uncle was a successful attorney, a good family man. Then the sudden shock when he died of a cocaine overdose at his girlfriend/hookers apartment.
5. An honest local realtor, who I got to know after I took his first time home buyers class, told me even more doozies. His advice: Limit contact to contract perusals and expert counsel only.

Then I found out the ENTP is sometimes called the “Lawyer Type”. ENTP is also the type most likely to be narcissistic. I’ve usually gotten along with them but noticed even the normal ones can lose interest and turn on a dime - they’re interesting and fun but not very loyal.

Anyways, after my childhood fantasies had been destroyed, I pondered if beneath the sweetness of my romantic notions lay an unconscious interest in the greasy perverted crack smoking lying weasel doozy floozy. But then I pondered again. In their defense, these women are associates or county employees (though one did marry and divorce the son of her father-son owned practice). As kids they seemed ISTJ or INTJ. It could be the most successful lawyers are usually ENTP players/politicians.
