I was having lunch with a colleague earlier this week, i was just expecting the usual small talk. What i did nt expect was her desire to rant about her marriage and the fact that she was going to file for divorce.
I have noticed recently that some people, not everyone, tell me their most initimate secrets. i dont know what I have done to deserve this, is it a good thing.
Her story is this:
They have been married for 12 years, its her second marriage, they have one child who is now 10. She works and he looks after the house. The sexual abuse she suffered as a child has always affected their phyical relationship but this grown into complete abstinence through his lack of affection or attention. The spark has definitely disappeared.
She found the love, or was it just excitement, in the arms of another man. She wanted to leave to be with this man, but her hubby begged her to stay, though her lover would not leave his wife. The affair ended 2 years ago.
Since then they have been in limbo trying to patch things up, she still searching for the love and affection she needs, him happy to vegetate at home and play tennis. Counselling didnt work they bicker and argue, he is unhappy, she is unhappy.
He plays tennis 4 times a week, with a girl called Lindsey, until 1am most weeks. She rides her horse and plays with her daughter
interesting or what?

Yikes! That's a whole lot of issues, and they really do sound doomed. When I hear things like this is makes me very grateful to have a happy (if sometimes boring) marriage!
Oh my! Your friend certainly sounds incredibly unhappy. I hope they both make the correct decisions for them all. How sad.
So, it's not so bad to be alone I guess. At least I have none of those problems. That's the joy of other's issues. You must be a good listener.
