Friend of mine and his wife of 20 odd years haven't been getting on and look like they are heading for a split. He planned a make or break weekend away somewhere romantic flying this morning. He came home from work last night to pick her up and travel to the overnight hotel for the flight this morning to find he moaning on the floor having tripped and fallen down the stairs and she was lying at the foot of the stairs for several hours unable to move. Blue lights, ambulance, hospital. She has a serious break to her femur requiring an op and the estimate is 3 weeks in hospital followed by 3 months convalescence.

He called last night to update us, FROM THE AIRPORT HOTEL. He has gone without her!

I think that has pretty much sealed the deal on the relationship ... Still, it seems a shame to waste a perfectly good holiday hehe

You strayed from the point. Where did he go in the end?

I admit I was a bit surprised at him still going. He had indicated that if things didn't work out he was off in September anyway,after a family wedding they wanted to present a joint front at and din;t want to spoil. Looking like he has jumped ship early as she won't now make the wedding.

To be honest he'd probably just got to the point he'd had enough and the accident made him realise he had no feelings for her and may as well call it a day.

That was my first thought, but then if they are going to split up anyways and were only staying together to show unity at an upcoming wedding, then it's not so bad because they already are not really a couple.

I mean, he is hardly going to stay and look after her for three months at home now is he? OF course I don't know why they are splitting up etc

He's made a serious error going on his own.









He should have taken his girlfriend.
