Reasons for ComplanisReasons for Complains

A couple came for counseling after 20 years of marriage. When asked what the problem was, the wife gave a listing of every problem they had.

She went on and on and on: neglect, lack of intimacy, emptiness, loneliness, feeling unloved and unlovable, blah, blah, blah and blah...

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 fish."
