I read a story today-- about a relationship:
The people in this relationship are Natalie and Jerry. Natalie was Jerry’s wife of a year and a half. Jerry works as a janitor, as well as a salvage yard man, while Natalie works part time in a school. They don’t seem to be particularly satisfied in their relationship. For Natalie, she feels as if she’s living under her means because of the way she was brought up. Jerry, on the other hand, is completely comfortable in his environment and doesn’t know how to deal with Natalie’s dissatisfaction. Jerry is very devoted to his relationship and he loves Natalie. He gives in to everything she says without question because of his devotion. She is more dominating in the relationship because she recognizes his devotion.
They live in a run down area in a house that isn’t in the greatest shape inside of a salvage yard. There are constantly animals getting into their house. From Natalie’s perspective, they’re living in a home that isn’t right for her family. She wants to move out, while Jerry is perfectly comfortable and at home. They both realize that they don’t have enough money to move out on their own; they even take a loan from Natalie’s parents to make ends meet. They love each other, but they are a victim of their social and financial circumstances, which directly affects their intimacy and relationship in a negative manner.
Based on the reasons behind why they separated in the first place, there really isn’t a better prediction for them. They will most likely remain separated until they file for a divorce. Natalie will either spend the rest of her life with support from her parents if she does not find another husband. Jerry, on the other hand, will most likely spend the rest of his life living in the same salvage yard and working as the janitor.
In order for the relationship to have improved or succeeded there would have to be a variety of things different. Both Natalie and Jerry would have to move out of the salvage yard and find better paying jobs. If this were to happen their main problems would disappear; they would be able to afford more- meaning that Natalie would be more satisfied and because of that, Jerry would be happier as well. With an increase in income there would be a decrease in the stress in the relationship. This would make it easier for them to handle their issues and they would be able to cope with any other disagreements in their lives.
