I had an employee who's newly wedded hubby checked on her every few hrs. at work. Once, he dropped by at her workplace. It scared her. He must have driven 250 kms. to see her. He kept badgering her to drop the job, because he needed her to cook dinner, clean house. She felt guilty. So she quit. I found out shortly she got pregnant.

I feel sorry for her. She barely knew her hubby, I think she met him via letters. Though she is university educated from Philippines and already over 38 yrs. when she married, it was amazing she got herself in this situation....

He sounds abit creepy to me, stalking her, badgering her, etc.

My husband and I talk on the cellphone at least 3-4 times a day. I call him on my lunch break at work and he calls me when he is on the road from work.
We just want to hear each others voices, I think and hear those words, "I love you."
I think we are evolving as a couple and learning so many things about each other. We've sort of made a decision to stay together but not live under the same roof.
He is on medication now and it seems to have made a major difference in his life.
I love him very much and I know he loves me, yet there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of leaving him. Its a strange relationship and certainly doesn't fit anyones norm, but I love him and check on him daily as he does me.

My husband and I call each other several times a day while I'm living at my brother's place. He calls me every morning to see how I am, if I slept well and what my score was on the online daily quiz that we both take. I might call him during the day if I need him to bring me something from home the next time he comes over, or to ask him to pick up groceries on his way over. On the days he doesn't come over, he'll call again in the evening to chat and to kiss me good night. I couldn't do this without him.

Eagle, what's the daily quiz? Is that something in the newspaper?

Hubby and I speak to one another a couple times a day. I call him, he calls me, whatever. We are often in touch. Can't help it.

My sister and her hubby are worse though. Mom used to say they couldn't go to the bathroom without calling one another.

We talk about three times a day. He just checks in to see how I'm doing.

Dotsie, the quiz was mentioned here about a year ago, and my hubby and I have been doing it almost every day since. Lately it's been very difficult and frustrating with bizarre and obscure questions.

Here's the link if you want to give it a try...http://my.funtrivia.com/tournament/-35088.html I think it's open to newcomers. And I think there are a couple of other Boomer women who participate now and then as well...

I see that Eagle's winning with +9 points. Is that you?

Yes Dotsie, I'm Eagle, but I only got 7 today...did you sign up? Lately, they've had very difficult questions, but it's still fun to get the brain working. It's interesting that hubby and I rarely get the same answers wrong...I don't do well on the questions about American presidents and history, he doesn't know much of the pop culture stuff. If we did the quiz together, we'd probably get 10 every day!
