I do understand Jenny Sandford.
I understood Hillary Clinton to a certain extent because she had a lot of specific ambitions her husband was fostering, pushing, and applauding.
Perhaps the public and private have become enmeshed in blurred boundaries.
If so, that's too bad.
Societies, as a whole, need very clear boundaries around private behavior, in order for there to be a space for individuals to form strong relationships and to foster families.
Too bad if we are not keeping these boundaries safe.
I can't see why a woman needs to live with a man she can have for a much less consuming
commitment.
Some of these husbands would be handier if they just came through now and again.
Many of them would be good as a two night stand every now and then.
If a woman is mature enough not to lie in an intimate relationship, what does she have in common with a liar?
If a man has a salacious nature, how can a woman feel special when he shares himself with so many other people.
Is the joy in an intimate adult commitment no more than a shrug and a giggle when the time comes for the 'committment' part to be realized?
I thought being in love meant each person feels the other is so very special ,that each makes a promise to=never do a thing which would hurt or demean the other.
Each partner makes that personal promise to himself or herself, as well as to the other person.
When these promises get breached, how does joyous interaction get defined in a way unique to a specific couple?
How does a person in a crowded relationship feel cherished as an individual?
How does a person want to have someone faithless raise their children?
Am I a simple parochial?
