7. Why Did I Get Married? (2007)
Tyler Perrys intricate masterpiece has a great deal to teach us about men and women. How do you handle a spouses all-consuming career? What happens when your spouse writes a bestselling book about your relationship? As powerful as those other lessons are, theres one lesson I think is the most effective of all. Fellows, when youre looking for a new lady, keep an eye out for emotional abuse. Does that womans husband make fun of her weight and fly without her when her girth prevents her from sitting in an airplanes seat? If so, youve got yourself a bulls-eye. Check out how it goes with the Sheriff, who drives Jill Scott up the mountain before driving into her heart. With very little effort, in fact just by treating her like a human being, he becomes a knight in shining armor. But man, youve got to be careful. If its too intense of an abusive situation, you might get more troubles than you bargained for, such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder or Too-Much Apologizing Syndrome. Find just the right level of abuse, say, a mild level of abuse, and you are all set.
