Since she married a much older man, he was in control of their relationship from day one. When he had an affair, she was nearly devastated. Her own family was very supportive, one of her sisters actually paid for the PI (private investigator) charges for tracing the mistress. A few brothers went to confront the guilty couple. It was speedily settled with severe warning to the unfaithful husband and a once off payment to the mistress. It was proven that the condo supplied by the husband was used to house the mistress' long term boy friend'. The mistress was pretending to be pregnant to fleece the gullible man. The young and attractive woman obtained the job with the explicit purpose of luring her boss to bed. Right after the entire matter was settled, my friend resigned from a very good civil service post to work in her husband's firm. In the process of doing that, she lost a good pension that was to be paid should she continue to work until retirement.
Lately we met up again, she was badly over weight. From her hey days of high heels, she descended to wearing flat heels. Even with the care of choosing boring shoes, her knees still hurt whenever she walk up steps. It seemed simple to suggest that she take gluco samine. She had been taking that for years. She has high cholesterol, got to be careful of her salt intake and has to control her dessert intake. Looking at her, I am not so sure that keeping that husband with roving eyes was worth her while. Sure, her seven children need their father, but does she need a husband who shouts at her whenever he felt like it? Does she need to serve him as his slave and eat up everything he was greedy enough to order at every meal? I think it is futile to keep a husband whose heart has flown away. If she does not take stock of the situation, she is heading to a wheelchair or knee replacement surgery. Then who will keep an eye at her ever straying husband?
