Why do some women get so much enjoyment out of being martyrs?
It’s like it’s a competition to see who can tell the biggest horror story about how awful her man is and "you think that’s terrible, wait until you hear this" and blah blah blah.
Oddly enough, if these women had the option to be with a man who isn’t awful, then they’d whine about how awful it is that he isn’t awful.
Why is that?
Having lived with a martyr for 28 years, I’ve concluded that it relieves them of all guilt and responsibility. You’ll notice that if you catch one at something their first line of defense is always to somehow blame it on you.
Their husband is actually the true martyr for her. He absolves her of all sin, be it cheating or chocolate. And he’s her whipping boy, in that he takes the lashes for her crimes. After all, somebody has to pay and it certainly isn’t going to be her.
So when they get together and do this they’re just sacraficing the lambs to make themselves clean.
Good question. Star for you.

I don’t really think they do this on purpose. probably just happens because their man wont listen to them or be supportive..so they have to vent to someone about it.

Anyone who settles for a truly lousy husband or wife shouldn’t complain about it, if they’re willing to tolerate being treated bad then they need to find some respect for themselves instead of complaining about it to friends who can’t fix the problem,

its what i call the martyr syndrome…. i have a sister this way she isnt happy until she is miserable. and complaining, and whining. never wants advice on how to rectify the situation tho. i dont put up with it anymore anytime she starts in with a negative about someone i change the subject. eventually she gets the point. i dont know why this happens tho that they like feeling miserable.

Where are you meeting these women and do you have any experience with a real woman?

It’s because they have nothing else in their pathetic lives.

Women are funny creatures. If a man is honest, they don’t want that. Very Sad. I have tried to be a honest man and women always leave me and my cheating freinds have all the decent women.

you know what i think is really gross about that? is the fact that these same women chose these men they talk trash about.
okay – so if you are who you hang with, then the people you attract are a reflection of you – IDIOT!
they make themselves look dumb. listening to that helps me to understand why some men call women chickens!

some people need attention and they think that is the only way, yes it is dishonest, but they are afraid to be honest. FYI: "Games People Play", by Eric Berne

I would argue your assumption that some women are martyrs, but I can’t. I’ve read too many Joan of Arc letters right here on YA. ("You think that’s bad, my ex burned me at the stake!")
I’ve mentioned a few tidbits about previous relationships as a warning to some others who seem headed down that same road. But if I was in a bad relationship now, I’d be too embarrassed to talk about it until I’d remedied the situation. Maybe they’re just venting…?
So I guess I have no answer at all. Now I’m just venting, hahahaha!

I’m a wife and I agree with you. All of my married friends (including sister-in-laws), do this and it really irritates me. First of all because I’m friends with the men involved also, not just the women. Plus 2 of the people that are being trashed are my brothers. If they start trying to get me to complain I just tell them how great my marriage is. I can’t complain. Which is the truth. I also don’t believe in airing a couple’s dirty laundry. Problems will become 100 times worse if everyone is putting there 2 cents in and you can’t think straight let alone make a decision that effects your marriage (because every fight counts, don’t say the wrong thing, both parties will remember the wrong that was done). I don’t know why women do that (men do it too though, it’s not just us) but the immaturity needs to stop.

Because they like being unhappy. they are addicted to the ego boost they get from it….this starts early. My m other is like this — so was her mother. I have worked hard to change and break that pattern and develope a more positive attitude of grattitude.
I also had to drop a few friends because ALL they did was bitch about their boyfriends…..it gets annoyed — but seriously —NOT ALL WOMEN ARE LIKE THIS.

You again? What’s with all of these hypothetical questions about women?
