I'm sorry I can't

Some women may accept certain indiscretions by their husbands.
Am I too strict or unrelenting?

Some women understand that their men may need 'entertainment' from other women.
Am I too restrictive to expect my husband to pay attention only to me?

Some women let go of small matters, because he was loyal.
Was he loyal really, to be gallivanting with other women?
So long as he returns home to us, it is all forgiven?

I don't know how wives with husbands in entertainment handles all these issues.
Maybe they're built of stronger stuff.
Maybe their men are stronger to deflect temptations.
Maybe they have a bigger purpose to serve.
Maybe the benefits outweigh the cost?
I am being presumptuous, and these speculations may not be fair.
Many men are loyal, but I ended up with the "casually loyal" ones.

Most women may take all these experiences in stride, but not me.
This is my last marriage ever.
I am but a broken-hearted woman,
I no longer hope for love from a husband or male companion.
I am enough.
I will survive.
I will keep walking.
Please protect me from falling for men who are bad for me.
I need to get the rose-coloured glasses off.
What I feel is immaterial.
I have to see what is in front on my eyes,
for what they really are.
WAKE UP!!!
