The title is more raunchy than the book.
It's just a woman realizing that her marriage is bad.
Some of the C-drama such as Find Yourself--are better named.
I would say, just as if you get lost in a bad part of town, get out as fast as you can unharmed.
You just need to get out alive and in one piece.
Ditto for bad situations in life or bad, unsafe countries.
I asked my friend from Beirut why she left--she said, "A bomb fell on my house."
