I agree with LFL. As I understand Zu's situation (and correct me if I'm wrong, anybody), any time her husband feels discontented with life or insufficiently "loved" or "desired", he starts harping on this crap that happened 15 years ago WHEN THEY WERE BROKEN UP! Besides, historically (I believe), he has been disinclined to believe what she tells him about the past *anyway*, so what's the point? I'm not saying she's blameless for their *current* issues, but he's not going to fix the present in the past, no matter how much he think so. It has always struck me as morbidly obsessive and very unhelpful.
