Quote: It just amazes me how we all have these expectations of how our S's s/b - we need to let them be whomever "they" choose to be...but we don't.
I'm guilty of that in some respects. I did have certain expectations of what a Wife should be that I know now was wrong. Sometimes I didn't accept her for herself and I can't for the life of me understand why. I fell in love with her in the first place because of who she was.
I never thought of her as a possession though and I was never the jealous type to tell her what to wear or not wear. That's controlling and if the shoe where on the other foot and she tried to control me like that, I would have bolted a long time ago.
