Yes, we have a choice. I've heard from many with the following statements "Work is stressful", "Life is stressful", "That's how everyone is living their lives", "We don't have a choice, everyone is stressed out at work".
My take? We do have a choice. Utimately you may have stuck through your stressful job because of its better remuneration package or you have that inertia that stops you from looking for new one. You can make that change, provided you really want to.

Friends with Blanket Assumptions.
They used to be my good friends. Not the best of all, but we have built up a certain level of trust over the years.
Now, they assumed that since I've found that special someone, I've decided to ignore them completely. In both cases ("F" and "M"), I made an effort to maintain contact, but was ignored. Honestly, I wasn't entirely happy with "M" for another reason, but if "M" is going to ignore me because of her existing assumptions, so be it. I wasn't entirely happy with "F" either, but if ignoring me is "F" decision, I won't lose much sleep either.
These friendships simply failed the test of time.
