She states in the article, in a nice way, Beta men can be steam rolled.
Yep- a friend just got of a marriage because he couldn’t be steamrolled- the wife announced that the marriage was over as a result.
They went to marriage counseling before the divorce, but she wouldn’t admit to anything and blamed the problems solely on him. The counselor tried to tell her that marriage is a 2 way street, and that both she and he had some issues to work on, but nope- she wasn’t having any of that- everything was his fault, and that was that in her mind.
we were all happy for him when she announced she was leaving and divorcing him (not that that was the ultimate outcome- everyone was pulling for them both when they went to counseling, but since she was hell bent on leaving, we were happy that he didn’t have to take the brunt of her displeasure with herself and life in general- she got remarried, lasted 2 years or so- now divorced again. Apparently she didn’t find the right beta to browbeat into submission, and yes, she was a browbeater- witnessed it many times- verbally abusive and a snap temper- shed always been like that, and we didn’t like when our friend began dating her, but he was determined, so we didn’t say anything. He knew what she was like before marriage, but as he stated later, he didn’t know it was as bad as it actually turned out to be- love is blind i guess)
