re: Friend thinking about divorce

I'm told the marriage has been "bad" for many years. But recently my friend has really made an effort to get his act together.

So your "friend" was an a-hole for many years, decided to try to be a decent person and is now disappointed that things haven't improved overnight?

It doesn't happen like that. People that have been shite on in relationships don't forgive nor forget easily. If the marriage was bad for years because your "friend" was a douche, then it may well take years of him being this newfound person to balance things out.

Sex life isn't the cause, it's just a symptom. Just bringing it up tells me your "friend" has poor focus.

Your "friend" and his wife should look into marriage counseling if they both have any interest in saving their marriage. Be warned though, your "friend" might find out a lot about himself he doesn't want to hear.
