Marriage Counseling

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, empitiness, loneliness, feeling unloved and unlovable, an

entire laundry list of un-met needs she had endured over the course of

their marriage.

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

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

wife to stand, embraced and kissed her passionately.

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 time s 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."
