Author of quotes: Andrey Merkulov

Christina, keenly interested in any details of her relationship with Zavyazin, at the same time made every effort to break this connection. Knowing perfectly well from personal experience that remaining emotionally completely absorbed by her husband, Polina made her situation painful to the point of impossibility, she stubbornly tried to tear her friend out of the abyss of the past, to help her take a new look at the world, to make it clear that the changes taking place in her life are not the end, but, on the contrary, the beginning of something new and, perhaps, much more interesting.

Where there are no quarrels - there are simply no feelings.

- I've heard of a study by English scientists here... They conducted a survey among married couples and found out that the happiest in marriage consider themselves those in which quarrels regularly occur. At first glance, the conclusion is paradoxical; but maybe everything is logical and the situation is so because it is in these couples that there are feelings between the spouses? And where there are no quarrels - there are simply no feelings.

The innate desire to excel in men inevitably manifests itself in the desire to possess the most irresistible, best woman. A charming companion, shining against the background of the other ladies, captivating the views of others, forcing the representatives of the opposite sex to admire her and envy her chosen one gives the latter an excellent reason to feel his success, his superiority. This way of satisfying the desire for superiority is very effective and, of course, men, if possible, would not be limited to one beauty - it would be much better for two or three passions to cope with this task, with affectionate smiles on their faces adoring their master. But what to do: the norms of a highly developed society dictate certain restrictions and a man now has to be content with one woman; however, this only makes the companion's appearance and manners all the more important.

Yuri was a guest, an idle passenger on a boat called "family life" ... he was in constant comfort and coziness, doing nothing himself and not receiving any reproaches from his wife. Everything happened quite naturally and easily, but that is why he did not even know what a gift of fate Olga was for him.

Seduction of a woman is one of the most effective factors in satisfying innate male egoism and the desire to excel. It gives rise to a whole heap of exciting emotions in a man, from a feeling of superiority to a feeling of his own worth. Such a unity of perception inevitably forms in the male community the value of victories in the field of conquering women ... A similar state of affairs has existed from time immemorial, and even more clearly manifests itself in our pre-redistribution simplified time, when even a legal marriage, which has shrunk and lost all social significance, does not create this much - any significant obstacles.

Being independent from her husband both financially and intellectually, Christina felt more than confident as a wife. She shone in society with her manners and erudition, allowing her husband to revel in pride both for her and for himself next to her; freely and naturally communicated with both women and men, intriguing her spouse a lot; With barely perceptible hints, she could make him suffer for a week in suspicion, and then, suddenly organizing a first-class sensual date in private in a restaurant followed by a rendezvous at home, she easily and effectively removed all doubts gnawing at her husband. A year later, and three, and five after the wedding, Christina, through dexterous manipulations due to her feminine contradiction, skillfully maintained a real fire in relations with her husband, forcing him, no less than during the first dates, to lose his head, desire, seek, annoy and be jealous.

In general, he was a very attentive, gallant man, and mainly thanks to his wife. A great lover of classic Russian literary works, deeply absorbing the graceful romance of the relationship between a man and a woman among the ruling class in nineteenth-century Russia, it was Christina who instilled in her husband the lion's share of manners. Attaching great importance to the helpful signs of attention to the ladies from the side of the stronger sex, she was able to quickly and clearly convey to her husband that by showing them, he elevates not only her, but himself. Open the car door, pick up the bag, take off the fur coat, move the chair - soon my husband performed all these tricks easily and naturally, enjoying the feeling of his own irresistibility with might and main.

Rinat exhaled heavily, as if hearing a sentence, and fell silent. Take your mother-in-law to the hospital - that's all! Such a trifle in order to hush up this unbearable situation right now and return everything to square one. Rinat rejoiced in his soul that the disagreements were over, and even with such little blood, but not a single muscle of his face trembled. He knew that as soon as he willingly agreed to this measure, or even just showed joy, his wife would feel her disproportionate to guilt and, perhaps, add a couple of demands to the appendage; if he, making a serious face, shows that the decision is given to him with difficulty, then she will then, when everything settles down, will make excuses, which forces him against his will.

Men and women have so different attitudes towards sex that if for one person in this area there is an idyll, then the other constantly suffers.

Yes, there can be no such idyll. A woman in the morning cannot be unspeakably happy with intimacy simply by virtue of nature, by virtue of her attitude to sex. You are excited by the sutra because your hormones are playing - on the contrary, it is a period of calm; you are completely ready and immediately eager to start action - she is without preliminary caresses, without foreplay, asking at all is not able to feel anything intelligible, and, kissing, thinks that it would be worth brushing your teeth first. If a woman in the morning, only waking up, without any emotional preparation, is willingly ready to make love to you, her desire is at least cunning, and most likely a lie. Men and women have such a different attitude to sex that if for one in this area is an idyll, then the other constantly endures.

Not to love because you are married, but to be married because you love.

I am not saying that families are disappearing, I am saying that the role and significance of marriage has radically changed. In developed countries with a high level of income of the population, the family has finally lost its main and only function - a means of survival, and now it is only a spiritual union of a man and a woman, based on nothing but mutual sympathy. This is not a family in the classical sense, where you “pledge to love until the grave,” where “the wife follows her husband, no matter what happens,” where you must “honor, respect and forgive” not because you want to be with a person, but because you are a member married to him. There is nothing like this anymore. Not to love because you are married, but to be married because you love. The modern family is based on fundamentally different prerequisites ...

The huge difference in the perception of sex is the tragedy of the union of a man and a woman.
