With age comes wisdom???

As I wrote in my previous entry about ageing and also we should be all the more wiser. Well, not necessary as I found out. I have a friend whom we shall name GK.
GK is a year older than I am. She is pretty with a huge appetite of humour and endless fun to be with. She is witty and clever during outings and eloquent with words. We met through one of my best friends YW. They were the best of friends, having grown up together and then having the same job. But over the years, they have grown apart. The main reason was whenever GK falls in love or had a new relationship, she will morphs into this scary monster. Someone that we do not recognise at all. This has happened in all her previous relationships. Her 1st marriage failed within the 1st year and she turns into this suicidal person whose only wish was to make her husband comes back to her. He did not, instead he took off with a dancer! At that time that was my 1st brush with her insanity. I was worried to death, not knowing whether each conversation with her was going to be her last or not? It was very draining and the last straw was when she swallowed pills and drank alcohol. She was almost unconscious when I reached her place. After endless banging on her door, she finally muster enough strength to open and let us in. Inside her house, I seen shoes scattered everywhere, half eaten food strewn on the table and soiled plates lining up everywhere. there was also a stench. YW wasn't surprised, she told me that all along the house has all been in this kind of condition. So anyway to cut a story short, GK survived and then starts all over again with the wrong type of people! One after another, none of her relationship really works.
There is always something wrong with all the people she was seeing. I remember one particular guy. He was shorter than GK, plump and not exactly good looking. And he was loaded with money. He would pick her up in all fancy cars. I used to called him Uncle Fester (as in Adams family ). The thing is GK will threw a fit each time they quarrel. I don't know what ignites the fights but it always ends up GK hurting herself. By this time, I had sort of washed my hands off her love life. I only found out how bad things are when YW updates me. GK would turn up half drunk at Uncle fester's house and threw herself onto the pavement. She would bawled and yelled til either his mum comes out or til the neighbours called the police. Which always ended up badly. Uncle fester would retaliate by not answering her calls or worse resorting to bodily hurt. Which drives GK more insane. YW finally also gave up on her when GK in a drunken temper punches YW's boyfriend at that time. Needless to say, we all heaved a sigh of relief when they truly broke up for good.
Not too long ago, GK started seeing this guy who had been thrown out of the house by his wife. They started off real sweet but then I think this guy is starting to be tired of GK. He has been asking for a break up but GK says she is not letting go without a fight. I am starting to see a calmity ahead
