A husband and wife went for counselling after 15 years of marriage.



When asked what the problem was, the wife went into a passionate, painful tirade

listing every problem they had ever had in the 15 years they had been

married.

She went on and on and on: neglect, lack of intimacy, emptiness, loneliness,

feeling unloved and unlovable, an entire laundry list of unmet needs that she had

endured over the course of their marriage.

Finally, after allowing this to go on for a sufficient length of time, the

therapist got up, walked around the desk and, after asking the wife to

stand, embraced and kissed her passionately as her husband watched with a

raised eyebrow.



The woman shut up and quietly sat down as though in a daze.

The therapist turned to the husband and said, 'This is what your wife needs

at least three times a week. Can you do this?'

The husband thought for a moment and replied, 'Well, I can drop her off here

on Mondays and Wednesdays, but on Fridays, I play golf.'
