I’m sorry, Christopher Pyne. My inconvenient relationship has made an inconvenient problem for you and your Liberal Party frenemies this week.
In a most inconvenient turn of events, a tape was leaked featuring comments you made standing up for relationships like mine. All you said, in a private meeting with 200 moderates at Sydney’s Cherry Bar, was that they were in the “winner’s circle” and that marriage equality could happen “sooner than everyone thinks”.
Cue excitement, cue hope, cue the inevitable disillusionment we’re getting so used to these days.
If the government was the silent partner in my relationship, it’d be a constant state of mindgames and letdowns. Oh wait… it is the silent partner in my relationship. I have to keep on reminding myself that my 10-year relationship doesn’t deserve any fanfare.
It’s a shame, because I’d make an amazing groomzilla. But I digress.
