A husband and wife came for counseling after 15 years of  marriage.

When asked what the problem was, the wife went into a  passionate,
painful tirade listing every problem they had ever had  in the 15 years

they had been married.

She went 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 over the course of their marriage.

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.

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."
