My husband called me as I was walking out the door to take wee one to the bus stop. He wants me to meet him for lunch. My first thought was, "Great. I have my day all planned, now I have to stop and get cleaned up and go alllll the way out there for lunch."
Then I talked to a gal from the bus stop who is having a bit of marital trouble. She doesn't get any intamacy from her husband, he is adhd as well as their three boys. Her life is so messed up. She goes to counseling and tells me she has two choices; stick with him and be miserable but have happy kids, or leave and try to make it on her own with three adhd kids. She has a husband, but not a partner. She needs to feel loved and appreciated and cared for, but gets none of that. She is in constant turmoil, her life is like a snowglobe that is always being shaken.
I called my dh and told him I'd love to go to lunch with him.

Good choice, I would change my plans for lunch with hubby most anyday. We all complain and rightfully so at times. I love my husband dearly, he's my partner in life and I enjoy those lunches with him when there's time.
Good choice! I would change my plans in a heartbeat to have lunch with Sonny. I feel like I was the other woman you mentioned. I felt that way about my ex ... he was my husband by paper but he was NOT a partner.
ENJOY that lunch date!

I learned a long time ago that the grass isn't greener on the other side. Hope you have a great lunch date!!! No funny business...
Have a wonderful lunch date :)
I learned this past year, take nothing for granted and enjoy the times you can share with your loved ones.
Good choice Sherry,gonna get some afternoon delight?I fell bad for that mother,what a hard thing to be going through.KIM
How sad about the other couple. You made the right choice for lunch!! Have fun, sit back and enjoy just that special time with your hubby...it's days like these we never get back, so enjoy them now!!! :o)
Yep....even when we think we got it bad..somebody has it worse. Very sad...I'm glad your going sherry...would love my hub to call me up for lunch if he worked close enough for me to meet him! Would love for him to even sit at the table and eat with me during lunch. I hope you give him a big fat kiss!
I think that's sweet that your hubby wants to eat lunch with you! You are very fortunate, as you know from your conversation with this woman at the bus stop, to have a husband that actually WANTS to spend time with you! I hope you dolled yourself all up and had a good time!
Hugs and love, Lisa
How sweet!!!! I'm jealous. My husband never calls me and asks me to go to lunch with him. He always goes to lunch with his boss. Have a great day!!! :o)
Count your blessings, name them one-by-one! :) My husband brought me lunch today and calls me during the day. I'm a lucky girl.
Poor girl! My first hubby was a nightmare. I'm glad you accepted your hubby's invitation for lunch. I hope you had a great time! Love, Kim
That was very nice of him to want to spend his lunch with you. My favorite saying is "I complained I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet"
Awwwwwwwwww. Good move!
I would give anything for my Husband to call me and say "Hey, Meet me for Lunch'. I can always dream!!!! Glad you called him back and went.
