After 35 years of marriage, a husband and wife came for
counseling.

When asked what the problem was, the wife 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
she had endured.

Finally, after allowing this 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 3 times a week. Can you do this?'

"Well, I can drop her off here on Mondays and Wednesdays,
but on Fridays, I fish."
