Marriage Counseling

A couple attended marriage counseling to resolve communication problems. The fighting and bickering during the session was so bad the counselor called for a timeout and told them he was ending the session early but had an assignment for the husband.

"John," the marriage counselor said, "You’re an athletic guy, here is what I want you to do. I want you to jog 10 miles every day for the next 30 days. At the end of the 30 days call me and let me know how things are going."

John agreed.

At the end of the 30 days, John called the marriage counselor very excited. "I did just as you said and I have never felt better in my life!" he exclaimed over the phone.

"Great!" replied the counselor, "And how’s your wife?"

John paused and then replied with dismay, "How should I know? I’m 300 miles from home!"
