Rumple finally succeeded in breaking her spirit and making her a submissive little housewife, a lovely neat obedient replacement for Milah. That is not true. She did not throw her life away, she wanted to see the world and she did. She was happy with Rumple who did not abuse her during their 50 years together. Rumple did not break her spirit, rather the opposite.
