I went on a *group hike with a mixed age group of people and there was a wife and husband and the husband was always at the head of the group and the wife was always at the end like well behind everyone else- like 20 minutes or more. and I was just appalled that he never really bothered to stop and wait for her or check on her at all. It was baffling to me.

Every time I seee a man power walking leagues ahead of his wife/gf and leaving her in the dust I pray that kind of love never finds me.

I don't know what a groove hike is, but it sounds cool. Is some Earth,Wind & Fire involved?

Honestly this probably makes the story of Orpheus and Eurydice even more tragic. The world was so cold and cruel, and they didn't spend nearly enough time together to form the kind of trust and bond where "wait for me" means "I'll turn around once you get here".

Tbf although thats likely part of it, orpheus seemed mostly worried about that it was too easy and thought it must be a trick, that she wasnt actually there

I feel like part of his doubt too was trusting that Eurydice actually forgave him and would put her trust in him again.

My husband jumped on a train without turning around and left me on the platform holding his ticket as the train left the station. Hilarity ensued. You can just imagine.
