Wow. Tough crowd. lol!
I agree in that I felt she was too selfish and overbearing. However I think that was the point. She had to learn how to give and take. She had to learn that a relationship isn't only what YOU want out of it, but that what he wants matters too.
That said, I guess we need to look at the definition of a woman is. I get the feeling that it's a wife with an apron who has dinner ready when her man gets home and wears silky negligees when going to bed and is ready for sex whenever he is. lol! I'm not saying that's bad. I'm actually anti-feminist so I don't really care. It's just that what you feel a woman should be is not necessarily what the next person's feelings of what a woman should be are.
I thought, simply by reading your subject, that you were going to say that it had drama in it too, which I came to agree with you on. I actually cried and was a little annoyed that he wasn't very appreciative of what she was trying to do, but also annoyed that she was not more supportive and empathetic to his needs.
Either way, I predict this marriage ended up a total fail because as my husband put it about his ex-wife:
To make her happy, if felt like I had to jog all the time. That was fine for awhile, but you can only jog for so long before you get tired of it. You slack off, things get bad, then the whole thing starts all over again.
That is a perfect description of marriages that require too much change to make it work. If you can't be yourself, then it will never work. Marriages such as that should never make it to the altar in the first place.
