“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Your mother felt, then, that each played a fitting part in the marriage, in that your father had in her eyes great prospects, and she had given him two sons. [...] She had forced herself to focus all of her great emotional power into the marriage structure as they both understood it; but your father would not concentrate his own abilities into the cultural and financial structure as he had agreed to do in the tacit contract.

[...] A recent example involved her sensing the breakup of the marriage of a friend with whom I work, some two weeks before the friend told anyone. [...]

First of all, Ruburt idealized you, as you know, in the early days of your marriage and courtship. [...]

On a more personal level, Jane herself naturally aborted a three-month-old fetus, less than a year after our marriage in 1954 (and nine years before she initiated these sessions). [...]

[...] A small somewhat amusing note: whenever, throughout your marriage, you commented adversely when Ruburt was about to throw a scarf about his neck, or perhaps wear an extra chain with others, he interpreted this, and quite correctly, as a hint of caution on your part that he was giving too much prevalence to the feminine love of ornamentation.

(Humorously:) I would make a good marriage counselor.

[...] We hadn’t danced together in the eight years of our marriage, and the band was playing a twist, with which we were entirely unfamiliar at the time. [...]

The image is tied up with certain emotions usually connected with the institution of marriage, and with being a respectable breadwinner and a father. [...]

[...] (Here now Ruburt thinks of your niece, and the letter announcing her marriage. [...]

[...] She had boyfriends, but no dreams of marriage, children, or keeping house. [...]

[...] When they look at your relationship with Ruburt they still assure themselves that it is after all not the traditional marriage.

[...] Such a performance would have been impossible for him early in your marriage. [...]

[...] She also stayed clear of any sexual involvement outside of marriage. [...]

[...] (People might even have to change their marriage vows!) Science-fiction ideas abound. [...]

A year later Jane made the naive mistake of seeking comfort in a marriage to a new friend, Walter Zeh, who was having his own difficult life with just one parent. [...] Her marriage was in the process of breaking up when we met early in 1954. [...]

They were also the forms, with the addition of fiction, that she worked within for the first nine years of our marriage on December 27, 1954. [...]

I drew Jane a few weeks before our marriage on December 27, 1954. [...]

[...] Hardly strange, then, that I found work as an artist in Elmira, and that Jane and I moved there in 1960, five years after our marriage. [...]

[...] The individual must make his or her own way through a barrage of different value systems, making decisions that were largely unthought of when a son followed his father’s trade automatically, for example, or when marriages were made largely for economic reasons.

[...] Again, the official mind says that it was a coincidence that this couple were, in their way, artistically inclined, enjoyed painting and writing, free-lanced, and still lived in an apartment after some years of marriage — and that the man was relatively quiet in contrast to the woman (with amusement). Yet again probabilities merge, for the woman could well have been a writer, the man an artist; and seeing Ruburt and Joseph, they related with other probabilities inherent in their own natures.

[...] While her husband worked in the factory, he also owned a farm outside of Decatur, and after marriage the couple moved there. [...]

[...] Roy is a man in his sixties, had never married, and since he seemed so completely happy in this situation we had assumed marriage would follow. [...]

[...] They seemed to offer a unified theory to cover the years of our marriage, and even Jane’s childhood. [...]
