Fences Act II

This act really caught me by surprise, I knew that Troy had his eye on another woman, but since he had always been talking about living life the right way and doing the right things, and listening to what your heart tells you to do, I didn’t think he would actually act upon these feelings. I feel like its natural to look at people of the opposite sex other than your significant other, but like Troy had said, you are in control of what happens in your life, you make your own decisions, and you are responsible for your actions. I don’t understand why Rose would stay with him after all of this had happened, I understand that she loved him and wanted things to go back to the way they were before, but he even said he didn’t want to give up on the other woman, he wanted to keep on seeing her too, this just isn’t something I would ever put up with. She is doing exactly what Cory said…she is allowing Troy to have control over her life, and she is afraid of him, just like Cory had been, but then he finally stood up to him, and I think this was a good step for Cory to take so that he could get on with his life.
