Helen threw all cautions to the wind and ran away with the man she loved, even when she was already married to the man she did not love. (arranged marriage). Is she worthy of emulation to every woman in love? If you were in her place, would you do the same? Your thoughts on this are welcome.

I am no woman so I guess my participation will mean this is the point of view of men. I don't think its right to emulate her. Though most women would probably emulate her specially the concept of her beauty I still say that its not right to emulate her. Though I do understand why women would like to emulate her. She has beauty, she decided to take action, she went to the one she loves, however she did not take into consideration all the lives that will be spent and all the damages that will result from her actions. All in all she was admirable, but not worthy of being emulated because she didn't take into consideration all the result of her actions like every women does.
