One night I decided to come home early, before heading out for the night. I brought the mail up, and when I entered, Jean ushered me into the kitchen, hiding me and the mail from Ada. Woops! – I’m not supposed to show Ada the mail or she hides it! As I was crouching in the kitchen, Jean started to tell me about Ada’s late husband Jack. And of the scandalous marriage they had! Jack and Ada would always look like movie stars everywhere they went. But apparently, Jack frequently ‘had other women.’ And would leave Ada in the evenings….. to get a hooker! He would feel women up in the elevator, who lived in their apartment building. He even left for 3 years for someone else many years back (I am shocked!).
Ada always says she never made a good house wife. She refused to cook, clean and apparently… have sex.
Jean said she would tell Ada – ‘Ada, you gotta be doing your wifely duties!’
Hearing about how much a person ‘puts out’ is a great way to really know them better - even if you didn’t want to know. Of course I have no idea why or what was going on, how much is true, or why I needed to be privy to such information, but I do think it’s funny how Jean sees sex in marriage as a duty. And as long as it works both ways… maybe it is?
(Although… since when do peops in relationships have matching sex drives? That’s one thing Father-nature didn’t think through too well.)
