Your Husband’s Needs

~

After 35 years of marriage, a husband and wife came for counseling. When asked what the problem was, the husband 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 he had endured.

Finally, after allowing this for a sufficient length of time, the therapist got up, walked around the desk and, after asking the husband to stand, she embraced and kissed him long and passionately as his wife watched with a raised eyebrow.

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

The therapist turned to the wife and said, ‘this is what your husband needs at least 3 times a week. Can you see to it?’

‘Well,’ she said, ‘I can drop him off here on Mondays and Wednesdays but on Fridays I have book club.’

Nice to see that the little stories are still going here. :D
