Ok. Sorry for the delay. Fridays are like that. So here we are, continuing from last stop.
The stories i heard from this couple directly and through my OH was quite disturbing. I would not go into details of what actually happened but I would give a brief insight.
The summary was that there were grudges from both sides and rightly so! There was ZERO communication. Assumptions leading to misunderstandings. Love not expressed. Affections non existent. Not demonstrated. Malice bottled up.
Ye amidst this whole backdrop, chins were up and smiles all around like there was no issue!
Had there been no 'intervention' then that marriage was heading for the rocks. What happened was typical of a million other marriages. Both couple well especially the husband had some expectations, as it turned out , were not met. This was not discussed. Result? Wife had no idea she was 'failing the husband'. As a result she was non the wiser and he carried on like he was owed a year' wages and being asked to keep working for free!
And the wife? Wow. Far more complicated. Brace yourself!
It was a sad situation . She outlined all the ill treatment meted out to her by a husband who did them not realising the extent of hurt and pain he was causing. Ignorance. He felt like he was owed something. Some courtesy. Respect. Submission. TLC. It didn't happen. Hence the attitude. And worse. Can't bring my self to write the details. :(
So here we are with a couple who fell into the abyss just because Mr Incredible did not tenderly explain to his wife how he feels or expects to be treated. On the othe hand Lady of the Manor maintains that her fake prince was nothing short of a sleaze ball who can't treat a woman right.
I asked both parties independently if THEY WERE STILL INTERESTED in patching things up! Their affirmative response gave me the push to get to work. To be continued...
