Me: Well...........mmm............sorry..........I just thought that..........

Him: It's about me, not her. She'll be staying here in the US.............

Me: And she's ok with that?

Him: She will be when she gets the telegram I'm in Sweden...........

Me:

I have known both him and his spouse for 6 years. I had NO indication of problems with them.............obviously there was..............

I wish I was making this up...................
