There is no perfect woman. Some are more perfect than others. The way I see it is a woman's drive(most anyway) is to reproduce and have children. The woman's focus goes from the husband to the first child. Once the child(ren) move out, the focus goes back onto the man(not necessarily sexually!?!). The woman then tries to get the (hers?) financial situation in good order in case the man dies first which is usually the case. The widow has a few years of "vacation" from her husband but he will be missed for some purposes.
Weak or strong women basically have the same drive. No I would not bother to go to your friend's wedding. 50/50. That is my theory but I still consider my wife my best friend. Consider myself lucky!
