some dudes just want a dude with long hair

you can't expect her to get it, she's not supposed to get it https://twitter.com/PTSDGuts2/status/1322284893984837632
Very clear example of "they don't care about the struggle, they wait at the finish line to f*** the winner"
this may be misunderstood as "marriage consigns you to loneliness" - no

a) she'll buy in on your thing if she buys in on you

b) difference & tension & mystery are essential to sexual attraction

c) loading her up with these expectations is spiritually gay, you need a mannerbund
Funny enough I've never asked the wife about Boromir

First answer: "No I didn't like him, he was the weakest on the team" then "ok Frodo gave in too, but that was at the end, Boromir got taken out at level 1"

Which was hilarious - but then she made a really good point
She basically views the first movie from the vantage of the team: Boromir is a blue falcon

For her, heroic selflessness is what *Boromir* doesn't get (until the end), & he's constantly bitching & dragging ass & endangering the team

Which is basically right
Guys OTOH almost always read Boromir from the inside, searching his heart & judging him on that basis

The woman, like nature, doesn't care about your heart until your actions prove it

You need both
