A frequent theme is independence. The wife might learn new skills or start a new career to prove that she can be self - sufficient and not rely on her husband anymore. Also, public shaming in a non - sexual way can be a theme. If the husband has made false accusations about the wife in public, she could gather evidence and expose his lies in the same public arena.
Some common themes include reclaiming power. If the husband has been controlling all aspects of their life, the wife may start making decisions on her own, like redecorating the house the way she wants. Another theme is getting even in terms of relationships. If the husband has been flirting with other women in front of her, she might start making male friends and showing him that she can also have a social life outside of their marriage without being unfaithful.
Yes, there could be revenge stories that are more about emotional revenge rather than being erotic. For example, a wife might get revenge on her unfaithful husband by exposing his wrongdoings to his family or at his workplace in a non - sexual way. This could involve revealing his financial misdeeds or his lies about his work hours.
One story could be that the wife found out her husband was spending too much money on his hobbies without consulting her. So, she started a savings plan of her own and used the money she saved to buy herself a nice vacation without him, which made him realize his mistake.
Another theme is the transformation of the wronged character. Initially, they might be meek or naive, but the act of revenge changes them. They become more assertive, cunning, and in some cases, a bit morally ambiguous. It's like the revenge is not just about getting back at the other person but also about their own self - discovery and growth in a rather dark way.
One common theme is betrayal. For example, if a wife has an affair, the husband might seek revenge in the story. Another theme could be financial disputes. Maybe the wife has mismanaged the family finances, leading to the husband's revenge. Also, disrespect within the relationship can be a cause. If the wife constantly belittles the husband in public, he may plot revenge in the story.
One common theme is loyalty. Dogs are known for their loyalty to their owners. For example, there are many stories of dogs staying by their sick or injured owners, providing comfort and protection.
The theme of community can also be present. For instance, in the school yearbook story, the possession is important for the whole school community. It binds the past and present members of the community together, and everyone can have a sense of belonging when they look at or talk about this possession.
A common theme can be power dynamics in a non - sexual sense. For instance, in a BDSM role - play scenario where one person is the 'teacher' (dominant) and the other is the 'pupil' (submissive), they explore how power can be exchanged and negotiated. It's about the give - and - take in a relationship, not in a sexual way but in terms of who has the authority in a particular situation. Another theme could be creativity. People might create elaborate BDSM scenes, like a 'prisoner - guard' scenario where they use props and set up a whole fictional environment just for the experience of exploring different power relationships and emotions, all without any sexual undertones.
One common theme is the struggle between human and animal nature. Werewolves often represent the duality within a person, the civilized self and the wild, primal side. For example, in 'The Wolf Man', the main character battles with his new - found werewolf nature.
One example could be a mean girl who constantly bullies a shy girl at school. The shy girl finally gets revenge by exposing the mean girl's cheating in an exam to the teacher. This way, the mean girl gets the punishment she deserves and the shy girl stands up for herself.
Another is 'A Rose for Emily' by William Faulkner. Emily's actions can be seen as a form of revenge against the society that has oppressed her. The story is complex and multi - layered, exploring themes of isolation, tradition and the lengths one might go to in order to assert their own power and autonomy.
