He’s a good provider and is easy to get along with but the truth of the matter is that 1 am bored to death. He never wants to go anywhere and when he gets home he loves to putter about the yard or read or look at television. I am not interested in any other man but I might be if 1 were free to get around and meet other people. Do you think I would be silly to ask for a divorce? R M -Ala. Answer: Yes.

coming home drunk. But if you are so bored with the pattern of your life why not try to change it by occasionally inviting friends in for an evening. They will probably ask you back in return and that would be a good way to start your husband enjoying the company of other people. I once knew a man who was a great introvert but after a few years of getting to know others, not in his small circle, he was hard to keep at home. And remember this--the great number of people, if they were truthful, would know in their hearts that, if they had tried as hard to get along with the first mate as they did with the second, there would have been no divorce.
