You cannot comprehend how 'control' creeps up on you insidiously, and you don't realise or understand how or why until you get release from it.
PS it is akin to Stockholm Syndrome
Stockholm syndrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
I once lived with a woman, the world outside thought I was the luckiest guy around, but outside impressions are very deceptive, I was with her for around two years, but decided I wanted more in life than being dominated by a very very attractive woman, and eventually called it quits. Your totally right Margaret about control creeping up on you, but its not a one sided affair male over female, luckily I realized early enough and made an exit stage left
