Counseling After 35 years
After 35 years of marriage, a husband and wife came in for counseling.
When asked what the problem was, the wife went into a passionate,
painful tirade listing every problem they had ever had in the years they had been married.
On and on and on: neglect, lack of intimacy, emptiness, loneliness, feeling unloved and
unlovable, an entire laundry list of unmet needs she had endured.
Finally, after allowing this 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 3 times a week. Can you do this?'
'Well, I can drop her off here on Mondays and Wednesdays. . . but on Fridays, I'm at the gun range with my Glock! '
