What is the Role of a Woman to You?

 

My father always said that a man needs three things to be happy, family, friends and an obedient wife.

 

He also said that a woman needs only one thing a man to keep her in line.

 

So he should be proud of me.

 

Seriously I think John is right in his assertion that a woman needs to nurture you know I saw it with my own mother’s the second we started growing up and stopped needing them as much they changed became sadder. So they started focusing their attention on my father, charities anything that would make them feel needed because they were looking after something.

 

I think I’ll go through the same thing when all the kids are out of the house, empty nest syndrome.

 

But for me that is what a woman is a nurturer.

 

What about jealousy?

 

I don’t get it it’s honestly something that I’ve never experienced when it comes to this marriage. Like John always says he loves all of us but he loves us for different reasons.

 

So I don’t compare what we have to what he has with Diana or with Roxanne or with Jennifer because they are three different women and his with them and loves them for three different reasons.

 

What happens if he dies?

 

A part of me would die with him but I would have my family with me and we’d get through it.

 

What if he was to take a fifth?

 

My opposition of this union would be real. I love what we have right now; more kids would be great but another wife. No.
