broken dreams

Re: broken dreams

A post is open to interpretation. One might think that you want your last question answered…or that you feel distressed about this woman and want to know what you can do, or both. Yes, I agree, being there for others…taking the higher road is important. However, at the same time…we DO teach people how to treat us. If we become a doormat…then we’re likely to be treated like one. I don’t know this woman…or where she lives…but in her case…I wonder if her husband (for example) would have been more cooperative had she been more firm/aggressive. Maybe he was the kind that firmly believed that a woman should “know her place” and there may have been dire consequences had she spoken out. Maybe it was this woman’s upbringing…or low self-esteem…or majbooriyan…or a combo of all these.
