Do you see that men are falling into the same trap that many women are climbing out of. They’re beginning to believe that they are powerless.
Alot of women once believed that they were powerless and allowed themselves to be hurt & abused. Men in general are doing the same thing today, we're settling for the roles of victim when we should be demanding what we deserve - equal treatment & rights.
The way your wife is treating you right now is making you start to feel worthless and disposable. How does your self-esteem feel because of this - do you feel like that? Be honest. Do you like feeling like that?
You can either buy into that belief (which you are doing because you are giving her everything she wants & demands from you) or you can reject it.
Male-bashing in general has become the norm in our society (any women reading this, I'm not faulting you, I'll make it known that I'm a man and I love women, I would probably say society in general is at fault, the pendulum swung the other way for so long, women may feel that it's now their turn to enjoy life since the pendulum is swinging the other way). There is also a belief that women are more important than men (you ever here for example about a plane crash on the news, and they say that there were 200 dead, including, 100 women & children - ever notice this, why is it so important to mention women specifically?)
This idea takes hold in all of our minds, we believe it because the idea & the image is so far spread & rampant.
You are allowing this situation with your wife to continue because you believe she is more important that you are. You are surrendering your power as a human being, the power of demanding respect from others, and as a result you are living your current life because this is what you deserve. Do you really deserve this?
