| Educated housewives of India?

Just how many of you were taught that you were empowered with education and modern ideas to become progressive, self-reliant women? Super-woman, who could balance a job and home and children and still be composed, calm and admired? How many of you have fought with your parents to be with the man of your dreams, and how many of you do not regret that entire epic saga today? I wonder if I am the only one?
Before this article denegerates into a platform for self-pity (if only I had listened to them, if only I had not hurt the hands that fed me and cared for me, if only I had used cold, hard logic while making perhaps the most important decision of my life, IF ONLY...), let me check myself right now and steer my thoughts towards a more linear, more viable direction. What do I do now? I cannot very well leave the man because he does not love and re spect me the way he did when we had only stars in our eyes for each other? I cannot very well make my baby go through his life without his dad who is still alive and kicking (not me, at least not as yet). I cannot re-create the hurt and distress for my parents, once by marrying the guy against their wishes and then by horrifying them again by leaving him, at least not because I feel uncared for and unheeded. But what about my education that taught me all about self-respect and self-reliance? What about my own self, am I supposed to go through this entire life living with a person who does not really care to live with me? WHAT DO I DO?

girl I hear you, been there. I think its time you decide what makes YOU happy. I know its difficult because you have a baby together but you can get your life back together, make use of that education you got and make peace with your parents. This guy need not be the centre of your universe, look at him as just part of YOUR world. I think the mistake we make when we get married is that we lose ourselves completely and become all about the man, take charge of your life, you still can!
