In Pauls case the Main character Paul is trying to run away from the way he lives. He wants to be rich and live the luxurious life while he is stuck not living the life he wants. Although Paul seems to want to just become rich this isn't true because really nothing makes Paul happy. Even after running away from his troubles and living the life that he wants he still commits suicide. This is because Paul will never truly be happy with anything, he always looks for more and even once he finds something that he life eventually it will become old to him and he will still want more.
In Chrysanthemums the women wants to get away from the beliefs that she's is inferior to men. She is greatly offended when the Pot and Pan repairman tells her that the way he lives would be much to hard of a lifestyle for a women. She is tired of her husband saying she doesn't want to go the fights because they are to violent for her because she is a women. In the story she isn't able to run away from this because she continues her ways and doesn't change even though she is ashamed of them.
She shows this by hiding from the pot and pan repairman when her and her husband drive by him.
