submission

I have been wondering....
In the last few days, I have been wondering if the women generally are afraid of being themselves, or maybe afraid of failure. I see a lot of unhappy women around me, unhappy in their relationship in particular but insist on sticking to it for several years, maybe even an entire lifetime. I am not emplying that any disagreement should lead to a break up, but I do think that after several years of misery and unhappiness, it is time to stand up for yourself and walk away. It is clear that a lot of people are not compatible with one another, yet keep trying to make the relationship work despite anger, bitterness and spite. How long is the necessary time to say that you have tried long enough and that it is simply not working?
I personnaly have experienced unhappiness and after many disputes and angry fights, my husband had left me for someone else, maybe thinking that the grass is greaner on the other side? Eventually, he realised that no body will ever replace me and that starting a new relationship wasnt the best idea so he came back to me. After thinking it all over and after many promisses from him to change, I took him back. Only to realise that the man was never gonna change.. Once a cheater, always a cheater.. so I broke it off. The bottom of the story is that everyone is constantly trying to put us back together and asking me to try again and again.. I am thinking that these people are mad, or must be somewhere??? Why would I want to be with a man who hurt me so much and who does not seem to care for anything else but his Dick???
So I realise that although the world is supposely shifting to a new age, with libeartion for women, it appears that women are not yet ready to take that challenge and be independant. Will the woman always be submisive, is it just the way nature is supposed to be for ever?
