Question - (20 December 2007) 1 Answers - (Newest, 20 December 2007)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Do you think these are signs my friend's marriage is in trouble?

-Whenever I see her and her husband together they look like robots their is no comfortable interaction between the two of them... it is just emotionless communication with one another. No smiling, hugging, touching! I am hesitant to ask her if something is wrong because I don't want to pry if she needs me she knows I am here.

-An employee of her husband tells me she never, ever hears him mention his wife on any occassion. He always talks to her about his children and states that the only time he is happy is when he gets to be with his kids.

I am worried that things aren't as good as everyone expects... are these real reasons to worry about their marriage? I mean I would think if they were really happy they would seem more friendly and speak fondly of one another. Am I the only one that finds that awkward?...

birdynumnums agony auntThis is the kind of thing that you wait for her to bring up. It would be more awkward to her if you were to mention it first. Tread lightly. You are a good friend, and I am sure that you have the best of intentions, but if she wants to talk about it with you about this, she will bring up the subject herself. Take care.
