And ya i looked in DR, MWD has done research and divorced couples don't live as long... there's a mile of stats showing that married people live better lives in a variety of concrete areas that social science has measured for a long time now
mwd is not the only person who researched this. plenty of researchers have come to the same conclusion.
what's striking is that there is an increased risk of heart disease in men. which h suffers from. so by d-ing me, he isn't saving himself. he's actually increasing his own risk.
sigh. i really tried to warn him of this but he wouldn't listen. i even told him that i don't want to find out that he died sitting in his recliner while watching tv. and the only way people knew something was wrong was because there was a foul smell of a rotting carcass coming from his apartment. he gave me a blank stare - eyes started to well up a bit.
there is somebody (me) here who is actually looking out for his well-being and he's pushing her away.
if he's right, i'm waiting for him to kick the bucket. i so want to dig at him and say "i thought staying married to me was going to kill you. we're still legally married and you're not dead yet."
