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.'
