Jeez. I find the first bit very sad and the second bit very shocking!
Why do people marry these types of women in the first place, and most importantly, why do they sit back and become victims of that sort of behaviour?
I have a very close, loving, relationship with my wife, where we both see each other as equals. We've been happily married for 18 years. We decide everything together, in fact do most things together, but no-one is 'the boss'. We both respect each other too much for that. I'm sure that those here who know Del and I would vouch for that
That's the way it should always be, and for the life of me I can't see why anyone would settle for anything less, other than if it was to protect the interests of kids, but even that, IMO, isn't really a good enough reason to muddle through such an unhappy relationship unless the children concerned were very young.
Deep and thoughtful today? You betcha!
I'm sorry, but that poor chap you described above is just a mug. What I find most bizarre though is that WAF, certainly here in the UK, seems to be a universal 'given' - an established fact, almost, that is just tolerated and accepted, such that phrases in relation to hi-fi equipment as: "she wont
let me", "I'm not
allowed to", or "I
must have such and such or she'll go mental", etc, have become almost the norm. How weird and more than slightly loopy...
I gave up being bossed around like that when I was a kid. There are too many subservient little wallflowers around, I feel...
