Love is a cruel myth created to make women obey.

Men do not love us. They may be fond of us, but they think only of themselves, and when they tire of us...then all the words they have told us mean nothing. And if we are foolish enough to believe them, and love them in return...

Then we are heartbroken.

And we must simply live with this. It is as my father says. It is my burden to bear, and I must do my duty.

So it is. So it always will be.

	He told me he does not. That he wants me to be my own person. He's always told me that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And you disobey him? What would your father say? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't know. It seems I can do nothing right. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	But isn't it a pretty easy? Your father wants you to do what your husband wants you to do and your husband wants you to make your own decisions. So go and please your father by making your own decisions. I don't see a problem there. And it is what you should do in the first place anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	My father's demands are not so easy. I am to obey my husband, yes, but I am also to act appropriately in doing so, and to remember my place. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	But in your marriage, shouldn't it be up to you and your husband to define what's appropriate? (Reply to this) (Parent)
