A Marriage for the Killing When people build marriages and livelihoods on truth and understanding it a beautiful thing, but what happens when life never existed in these so called “love endeavors”. The relationship between Torvald and Nora Helmer was of this creed and was doomed to fail from the beginning. Though this failure was not truly their fault because society had played its fickle hand in there lives, it taught Torvald that he had to treat women like objects and it told Nora she had to act below him. Nora left him because he treated her with no respect, she had experienced true affection from her friend Dr. Rank, and because she was not viewed as an equal in the eyes of men. Torvald Helmer was a victim of the society in which he lived, he did not understand that women and men are of equal status, this was to a large extent because of culture, but there were more motives hidden within. Torvald’s lack of respect was one of the contributing factors as to why Nora left, he stated “Is that my little squirrel running around,” as a perfectly normal incident not giving her the rightful respect that she deserved by simply being alive.
