Penelope and how she would feel

Penelope had to go through a lot towards the end of the story, she most likely had other things she went through at other parts of the story but they never really showcased it. Penelope had several men to deal with not only does she have to think about her son whom has never actually known his father, but she had tons of men in her house. All the men begging for her hand in marriage but did they actually care about her or was it all for the throne? Im sure she must have asked herself this once or twice. She also had to think about her husband odysseus, was he actually dead or was he coming home soon after twenty years? Penelope feels her husband will come back but as the year pass I'm sure doubts begin to appear in her mind, especially with everyone telling her that he was dead. Twenty years is a long time to be away from anyone but from someone you love it probably seemed even longer to her. Penelope had a hard time but I'm sure it all was worth it when her husband returned to be with her for ever, and still loving her even though they both had aged.
