The woman seems to have lingering anger from her parents’ divorce and her mom’s remarriage 25 years ago.
Couple who let a friend crash during a marital spat now feel she’s taking advantage of them.
If the ailing man precedes her in death, his wife would rather tell the truth than repeat his many tall tales.
The man, alcoholic and unemployed, calls to tell 4-year-old daughter he’s coming to see her but never does.
And that’s not the only problem at an office where the assistant will make less than the trainee, and the boss is overlooking her main responsibilities.
The local radio host had many phone chats with the adoring teenager and even spun records at her Sweet Sixteen party.
It’s a confusing new turn in a marriage where wife works hard to make the man feel cared for.
