Ernest Hemingway - HILLS LIKE WHITE ELEPHANTS

In Hemingway's "Hills Like White Elephants" we witness the dissolution of the relationship between Jig, a woman and The American, her travel partner and lover.
I believe that the two are too different to be able to be together. I sensed so much tension between them, like I myself have come to experience in the past, while traveling and trying to start lives with different people, yet neither of them turned out to be the right one. Gladly I didn't get pregnant, like Jig has. She happens to be with a very stubborn, immature and confused man.
For her it would be best at this point to part with him and go her own way, make her own decisions and start a new life that she has dreamed of - after all, another man will come along at some point.
But in the end she goes with him, because as a woman of her time, she has no other choice and decided to be safe, rather than on her own, even if this decision will hurt her more emotionally, it will give her security in the long run. I am not talking financial security, but knowing that a man is by her side means a lot for a woman, and gives her strength. If the strength that The American gives her is healthy, thats questionable, but this is her fate.
