The conflict started as there is no role defined for me. rather I did not fit into any of the predefined roles. I am not the nagging beautiful wife craving for things all the while. I am also not the demanding husband who earns for the family and does not get hands dirty in household chores or looking after the kids. Neither I am the control freak lady who boasts on saying that no flies can go past her eyes. I am not the person who listens to anybody and everybody, hence fails to form own opinion about anything. I am not the one who always keep complaining about everything. I am not the one, who, like any other obedient wife, runs to her husband whenever he needs something, which looks more like a help, or a caregiver.
I am a lot alike these pre-defined roles, and unlike them. While I do not nag for gifts and all, I still do crave for company, friendship. I do earn for my family, but I also want my hands dirty. While I do not want to be always available like a caregiver, I do want to be available to the family needs. Above all, I guess, I want to be wanted by my family. But seems I do not fit in the same.
