Ever come across anyone who cannot accept that something might be their own fault? Here's an example:
'I am being punished for having a boyfriend.
You see, I have an annoying tendency to go out on a date the night I have to do dishes. The last time, Anthony had to sub for me, so I had to pick up one of his days. Yesterday. Well, yesterday night, I went out again, so I could only do the morning half. So Aldo subbed. Now I have to do dishes today for Aldo, tomorrow for my alloted day, Tuesday for Anthony, Wednesday at mom's, and Thursday because it is once again my day. That's 5 days in a row.
And so I feel that I am being punished for having a boyfriend.
Sigh.'
