Do housewives feel lonely?
| Q: | why are housewives lonely? - by adela |  |  |
by Cristina Nuta - They are the ones who remain at home after children leave for school and their husbands go to the office. After their departure, housewives begin to do the same activities that have become a routine in their daily lives.
But do they feel lonely all day long or is it just that they don't notice this? The majority would say, at the beginning, that they are not lonely at all. They are so preoccupied about doing all the things they have to do in the house, that they forget about the mere fact they are lonely in the house. Therefore, they are surrounded by plates and clothes to wash or different products to prepare something to eat for the family. Then, they have to iron, to arrange clothes in the wardrobe, clean the dust, take the ash tray from the little table in t he living-room, wash it, and take it back in the living-room. All these ways to and from the kitchen are so numerous during one day, but they don't even realize it.
The consequence is that housewives don't have enough time for themselves. They just look in the mirror while passing in a hurry in front of this; they don’t have time to relax and read a magazine, watch TV or go and visit a friend. The only thing housewives know to do is to have the food prepared for the family, to have the entire house cleaned, and to do all this over and over again.
And the worst thing is the following: their husbands do not offer them some moments of relaxation and go out somewhere, because they say they are tired after a long day at the office. And they have to accept it because all that her husbands do is for the better of the family.
Anyway, lately, this attitude housewives have, will completely change. They will realize that they have been doing useless things and that they will leave nothing behind them after their death. They will try to revenge at some extent, doing things that they have never done until then, just in the need to feel something different is taking place in their lives.

we're all different. i'm tired of women playing the "woman bashing game." Celebrate our differences and know sometimes we're all lonely and sometimes we're not. I've worked and stayed at home. I"ve been lonely and happy both times> don"t ask irrelavant questions! |

I first have to laugh at the comment about "doing useless things, and leaving nothing behind". In my opinion, this article is quite slanted. Heaven forbid you should choose to be a housewife... Heaven help you if you happen to be good at it, and like it. I have to wonder if people would question if my choice was to become a dentist, or a lawyer, and ask" what else do you do"? How dare anyone judge a person for choosing to actually care for the people they have brought into this world. In reality, my thought is that, if your day consists of sitting in an office, pushing a pencil in order to attemp sell another "cog", your time has been ill spent, and you have left nothing of real value behind you when you are gone!

its true that house wives perform their home-works in a cyclic routine like a machine again and again. but still, there are opportunities left for them! they can enroll themselves in online business such as transcription works for eg. once their children leave for school and husbands to their offices, they can very well spare time to do such online works, which provides them flexibility in timings. i feel, in today's competitive world, one must have individuality and exhibiting of one's talent has become a must to be a survival of the fittest. |

I have to say that I am not totally agreed with this, ok there are things you have to do, but some of them you don't make it everyday, and you can honetly take time for yourself, go for a coffee to a neighbour, who is also a housewife, go shopping with her. It is not borring, it is not useless, and definitly it is not lonely. You still have your friends. Not everybody is a career women. |

Yes it can be a lonely and boring life. I am one. It makes you tired and numb after a while, and it`s a constant battle to keep any sense of self and wit alive. Still, we do it for the kids mainly. I just hope I live long enough to enjoy some time to myself when both kids have left home, although as I am now 40 and my youngest is 3 it will be a while yet. I do love them though! |

honestly what you are talking about is true u know what you are talking about cristina and i agree 100% those houseworks are totally useless one should not give it full attention and forget about other things in life which are far much important than washing the dishes sometimes you just give urself time out go out for eating take your family along not nessesarily waiting for ur husband to do it for you but you can do it for yourself i honeslty treat myself evry once or twice a week |

Consider the housewife also shops, is the purchaser, keeper of the household material goods, eliminates time wasting jobs and clutter as she learns what works best, donates some of her free time to charity work for the church or in the community, volunteers as a teachers aide,.. chauffers the family to doctor and sports appointments, does jury duty, ..and over time makes friends and has hobbies such as gardening, sewing, pottery,.. even perhaps working, selling products from home too. |
