Josephine cheated on him, frustrated him and crunched his heart into the ground. Thus ensuring his slavery to her until the day he died.
It's always been this way.
Anthony and Cleopatra are another example.
Men are conquerors. A wise woman who wants to keep a man enslaved to her beauty knows this. Being difficult makes the price go up. What is easily available is of little value. If they were too easy we would not love and want them so much.
It's only by modern mores that these natural inclinations of the sexes have been thwarted and frustrated.

If you go back to Homer's the Odyssey, Odysseus is the one that cheats and his wife stays loyal and doesn't give in to the guys that were hitting on her. And then Odysseus DID return and killed them all. I guess women just changed their mind as to how devoted they can be to their husbands.
