* framed (again)

1. man builds castle, and calls it 'home.'  man loves his home/castle.  he can do anything he wants, autonomously (think about that.  no.  really.).  his mother visits often.  they have a great relationship.

2. man moves girlfriend into his home.

3. girlfriend (initially) supports his lifestyle... his every way: grill, man-cave, deck furniture, etc.  

   3 a. uh, oh... she begins to infiltrate.  she 'suggests' small changes: flowers here, decorative towels there.  you know the drill.

4. 'they' get her a dog.

5. 'they' decide to marry.  her dog already controls the home, so it's just the next step in the process. 

6. after marriage, wife begins to find things 'wrong' with the home.

7.  man realizes that his 'best friend' (not the dog) has become his wife/sexless-house-mate/dog-mom/adversary who can more aggressively 'modify' the home and living-situation.  eventually, his own mother is less welcome in what was once his home, and mom wants to spend less time around that situation, anyway.

8. man wakes up one day to realize that (not only is his home not his), but his former best friend has plans to move him out.

that, my friends, is called losing frame.  
the funny thing is that men do this willingly -- because they 
convince themselves that they need a woman-partner...
and don't understand the real reason why mick jagger sang "satisfaction". 

silly men.
