Summary:
Elizabeth Gilbert was 32 and educated,she had a home, a husband, and a successful career as a writer. Suddenly she became unhappy with her marriage.As a way to show her pain she would often spent the night crying on her bathroom floor or looking in her box with places that she dreams to visit. She eventually gave up and had a divorce to make her life more liveable,he wasn't to happy with the divorce and was against it willing to try and change or make it better. She found herself a rebound which she was with for some time. They did not work out which left her devastated, alone and ready to give up.
Quote:
" How could I turn back now, though? Everything was in place. This was supposed to be the year. In fact, we'd been trying to get pregnant for a few months already........"
- This quote kind of explains her reason for doubting the marriage and wanting to give up, cause she thought it was going to be a happy thing, but other things came along.
Reaction:
My reaction is that she is crazy and that it looked more like she was just being selfish the whole time. Her husband wasn't making her happy anymore, but she was not willing to try and fix it or go to counseling. I guess she thought that going into another relationship would make her feel better and change the fact that she had felt the way she did, when realistically she was just making things worst for herself not knowing the impact it would have on her.
