Her diary:
My husband is acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a nice restaurant for dinner. I was shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he didn’t comment on it. Conversation wasn’t flowing, so I suggested that we go somewhere quiet so we could talk. He agreed, but he didn’t say much. I asked him what was wrong. “Nothing,” he said. I asked him if it was my fault that he was upset. He said he wasn’t upset, that it had nothing to do with me, and not to worry about it.
On the way home, I told him that I loved him. He smiled slightly, and kept driving. I can’t explain his behavior. Why didn’t he say, “I love you, too”?? By the time we got home, I felt as if I had lost him completely, as if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore. He just sat there quietly, and watched TV. He continued to be distant and absent. Finally, with this silence enveloping us, I went to bed. About 15 minutes later, he came to bed. We spoke, but still he was distracted. I knew his thoughts were somewhere else.
He fell asleep; I cried. I don’t know what to do. I’m almost sure that his thoughts are with someone else. My life is a disaster.


His diary:

Motorcycle won’t start. Can’t figure out why.
