I remember seeing this when it was originally written. While I laud Elon's professional accomplishments, it's not hard to accept that he has some massive faults when it comes to personal relationships, not unlike many successful entrepreneurs before him. At the same time, my immediate reaction to this piece was that Justine Musk is a professional novelist. Her job is to use words and her writing to entertain people, part of that entertainment being making people feel certain emotions and thoughts through the stories she tells. I couldn't read this without taking her side of the story with a grain of salt.

Why "faults"? It sounds as if he said "take it or leave it", isn't that fair? Why do you have to have a specific personality to be accepted? Nobody is forced to marry the guy.
