Hayo!
Found out last night that a friend, whom I thought was in a happy marriage, is contemplating divorce. Funny thing is his wife of 20+ years, who we all thought was a narcissist, was getting better and even made it a point to contact the other wives to set up parties and all. Little did I know my friend hasn’t had any decent sex in now almost two decades, and that he’s been living in a sexless marriage for almost two decades while remaining completely faithful to his wife.
My advice to him was to at the very least get a consultation with a divorce lawyer to see what divorce would look like. And then, based on what he says, to give his wife a last chance (without letting her know he’s been consulting with a divorce lawyer,) possibly going to marriage counseling.
Did I do the right thing? I feel so freaking bad for him… 20 years without decent sex. It’s fucking crazy!
