What other things have I learnt? Okay... It's that you can maintain writing brilliantly till you yourself wish not to. This is really a good one coming from you... This is what is really happening in many marriages... In as much as you make the man feel smaller, it affects him. Some men can take it and just become like a second fiddle, but some others won't. And because of the love they really have for you, they turn the situation as it is in this case hoping the woman would find her steps back someday.
Once again, thanks for this.
