Celie's lack of trust

I think an intersting aspect of the story was Shug and Celie's relationship. Even though it was a bit too close for my liking I think I an understand Celie's obession with Shug becuase of the way she has been treated by men her whole life. Even her own "father" didn't care about her, and was ore concerened about getting her pregnant rather than be a support support system for her. Then, once Celie is married, she practically becomes a servant of the house and is left to take of everyone's needs, and no one if there to take care of her until Shug come into the picture. Shug is the first person who has Celie think of herself and have the will to do what she wants to do and not go around following other's orders.
