Marriage Counseling for Racers

A racer and his wife came for counseling after 15 years of marriage.
When asked what the problem was, the wife went into a passionate,
painful tirade listing every problem they had ever had.

She went on and on: neglect, being left at home every weekend while
he was at the track, lack of intimacy, emptiness, loneliness, feeling
unloved and unlovable, an entire laundry list of unmet needs she had
endured over the course of their marriage.

Finally, after allowing this to continue for a length of time, the
therapist got up, walked around the desk, asked the wife to stand,
and embraced and kissed her passionately.

The woman quietly sat down as though in a daze. The therapist turned
to the husband and said, "This is what your wife needs at least three
times a week. Can you do this?"

The husband thought for a moment and replied, "Well, I can drop her
off here on Mondays and Wednesdays, but on Fridays I usually leave
early for the track so it will have to be a morning appointment."
