Answer :

In “The Story of an Hour” by Kate Chopin, Mrs. Mallard feels suffocated by her marriage to her husband.

When Mrs. Mallard learns that her husband has been killed in an unfortunate accident, she initially mourns the loss of her husband but later retires to her room. Once in her room she thinks about the repressed relationship she had shared with her husband, and begins to see herself as a free and liberated woman. Although she is shocked with the news of her husband's death, she appreciates the beauty of spring outside her window and links it to her own rebirth as a free woman. This shows that she felt suffocated by her repressed relationship with her husband.
