[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friend and her husband also seemed to have a perfect marriage. He's a partner earning $400k; she's a well-regarded psychologist.

When I was over at their home a couple of years ago, though, I noticed a very extensive "Honey Do" list.  Cut the grass, make breakfast for the kids, laundry, fix leaky faucet, out in new cabinets, etc.

Besides each item, there was a due date and # of days past due. I told my friend I love her, but that she sounds like a b****. She couldn't take the tough love and severed ties with me.

Last year on Facebook I saw a picture of him with a gorgeous young thing. Evidently she worked with him at his firm, saw that he makes for a dream husband, and gave him the oomph to walk out on his now ex-wife (and unfortunately my ex-friend). [/quote]

PP with the divorced BIL/SIL here.  Sounds like something my SIL would have done!   Just not healthy for a marriage.

Apparently my BIL/SIL went to counseling with multiple counsellors.  One sided with BIL, one with SIL.   BIL is truly a great guy, and I think if SIL had been more appreciative of what he did, and didn't think so much of him as a person in charge of her to-do list, things might have gone better.   The summer after they seperated (he moved out and was in an apartment), he spent a weekend with us visiting extended family.  She was on vacation overseas, and called to yell at him for being out of town with us instead of installing a new closet system for their dd like she had told him too.  I lost a lot of respect for her right there. [/quote]
