Abandon
Her husband accuses, “Why did you abandon me?” She replies,
“I’ve been with you every day. I’m crushed by your cruel lies!”
“Just bodily with me. You’re distant, no longer trying to connect!”
Kudos to spouses who are THERE in every respect.
They’re wise, knowing love might not survive neglect.
