Why do guys change after marriage? (Part 2)

In my earlier blog, I had mentioned how the marriage between Carol and Max was over the rocks. Carol had discontinued her studies so that she could be with Max. But after some time, he adviced her to go back and complete her graduation. And as she loved him, she did as she was told. This is how I got to meet one of my best friend in the college, Carol.

But now, Max is avoiding her. Not returning her calls, neither did he wish her on their anniversary. Carol did message him and wished him. Her visa will expire in the month of March, and that's also the time when we have our semester ending examinations. So, she has planned to go back and get it renewed. As, she believes that once it expires Max will never be interested in getting it renewed.

All this chaos is not only affecting her grades but also hurting her family. She's staying with them, until she completes her education. According to her, it breaks her heart to look at them. Beacuse they dearly love her. For her, we are a source of distraction. But her parents don't have such a company. We have been telling her to break off and get a divorce but she is so annoyingly patient. She wants to have heart-to-heart talk with him, and get to know, from him, as to why is he behaving in such an unusual way.

She has agreed on the fact that if this kind of behaviour persist, she will definitly divorce him. According to her lawyer, she has nothing to lose. As she will be getting 45percent from his salary every month. And the guy is filthy rich,ha!

But whenever she does say these words, she has a far away look in her eyes. As if, pondering, on what happened to her knight- in-shinning armour.

I've been with my wife for 24 years (married for 17) and I can tell you that while I have changed, the changes are no greater than the changes I would have gone through if we hadn't gotten married (unless you count having 3 kids, which I'm not sure I would have done unwed). Not all men change like your friend's husband.
