After 35 years of marriage, a husband and wife go for counseling. When asked what the problem was, the wife went into a tirade listing every problem they had ever had. On and on she went … neglect, lack of intimacy, loneliness, feeling unloved, etc. — a long laundry list of unmet needs she had endured. Finally after listening for a sufficient length of time, the therapist got up and walked around his desk. Standing next to the wife he then embraced and kissed her long and passionately as her husband watched. The woman sat down, quietly and 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?” “Well,” said the husband, “I can drop her off here on Mondays and Wednesdays, but on Friday I play golf!”
