Their Eyes Were Watching God- Men Treatment towards Janie

In Their Eyes Were Watching God, Janie got treated in many different ways when it came to men. She had men that treated her well, and men that did not treat her very well. Her first two marriages were the ones that were not that great, and her last marriage was the one that she got treated very well. In her first marriage we did not get a lot of details, but Logan did abuse her physically and mentally. Then in her second marriage, everything started out great and Jodi was so good to her. Jodi later got caught up in his work as a mayor, and forgot how to treat a woman. He would keep bosing her around all the time, and wanted her to obey him at all times. If Janie did not listen to just exactly what he said to do, he would be upset with her. Janie did not like this at all, and eventually got tired of it. They just fell at of love it seemed like to me. Janie got so upset, because she knew what kind of a guy Jodi could be and just wished he would be that way again. She wanted him to be the guy she fell in love with again. Janie's third marriage was the best by far though. Tea Cake was the name of her third husband. He was so good to her, and it was not fake. He always meant what he said and did. He never acted in different ways, like her previous husbands. He fell in love with her again, each and every single day. He could never get enough of her, and wanted to be with her at all times. They were so in love. They worked together everyday. Janie always loved how she could do what she wanted, and not have to worry if she was going to get in trouble by someone. She liked being able to go out and have fun. Tea Cake was so good to her, and she would not trade her for anything. She did not know a husband or any guy could treat her so well. She had been so mis- treated by other men that she just could not believe it. She finally found a man that treated her right.
