...feminine nature...

You do not understand human nature, Mr. Wade. Still less do you understand feminine human nature. At the present moment you are, from a feminine point of view, merely a waste product. Nobody wants you. What use has a woman for something that no one wants? None whatever. But take another angle. Suppose your wife discovers that you are looking forward to regaining your freedom as much as she is?
Then she ought to be pleased.
She ought to be, perhaps, but she will not be! Moreover, she will see that you have attracted a fascinating young woman - a young woman who could pick and choose. Immediately your stock goes up. Your wife knows that all her friends will say it was you who tired of her and wished to marry a more attractive woman. That will annoy her.

    AFS: Me sé otro punto de vista, supongamos que una chica quiere jugar con el chico por 6 vez, pero el ya se ha dado cuenta del juego y ya no quiere volver a entrar, encima va ella, se lo toma mal, y piensa que la que lo ha dejado es ella ... la mentalidad femenina, una gran incógnita en nuestra pequeña existencia...
