Insecure relationships

Just met up with a friend last night for dinner, learnt from her that one of the ex classmates got divorced. I was rather surprised as they were a model couple in school days and the husband was a goody boy from my school.

Well, from the looks of it, things are really unpredictable.

Another friend, J, told me he got divorced was because his wife and he had long working hours and that both of them seldom meet. One day, he could not withstand the loneliness any longer and asked for a divorce.

At first, I thought that he was just not being understanding as both had to work. Both of them should salvage their marriage. Communication is the key factor. However, until recently from what I encountered, I really truly understand how J felt. That kind of loneliness could be unbearable. If there's communication and interaction from each other, be in MSN, SMS, or any other means, I guess even without seeing each other is alright. But with no response from the other party is as good as he is dead!

It always holds true that only until when we are in the position of the person's shoe do we understand how they feel.

I rest my case.
