Husband speaks to wife for first time in 20 years after going into incredible sulk

A husband has finally spoken to his wife for the first time in 20 years after going into the mother of all sulks when she said something to upset him.

Otou Katayama hasn’t spoken for two decades but continued to live with his wife, Yumi, despite her trying to make conversation with him.

She’s had the odd nod or grunt in response, but apart from that she’s been met with a wall of silence.

Their son, Yoshiki, 18, contacted a Japanese TV show asking them to help because he had never heard his parents have a conversation.

Man finally talks to wife after 20 year silence

 

He said: ‘Somehow it’s been a while since we talked. You were so concerned about the kids.

‘Yumi up until now, you have endured a lot of hardship. I want you to know I’m grateful for everything.’

He later added: ‘I was kind of jealous [of the attention the children were getting]. I was sulking about it. There’s no going back now, I guess.’

What an idiot – Should she have stayed with him for so long ?

I have not fought with my wife for over six months now! Am I someone from a different world? Possibly, the "philosopher" could elucidate.

My Cuban Shotputter and I never argued or fought - were we an exception to the 720 rule ?

There go the two "philosophers" with their "philosophical" views! One of them gives the example of a lion not talking to the panther as if both the animals speak the same language. Possibly they attended the same school and that could be the reason why they could converse with each other in the same language. Ha! Ha!. The second "philosopher" is sure couples fight "3" times each month and there could be no month with "4" fights or no fight at all. The figure "3" always remains constant in all his posts.

I am ROFL!

If we compare it with a common couple who fights 3 times a month for example .............. 36 X 20 = 720 ........ So she fought 720 times less than an average couple .............. .......... So great .......... !!

She is the most beautiful lady in this universe, Ms Universe. Her beauty lied in her being loyal to her man. She is the most wise lady among all the planets for the past 20 years, she knew what is good for her man & kids ...... She had a sky high vision for the life of her family members ......... !!

There must be a reason for his actions .. we must look at the real reason

A lion does not stop talking to the panther unless they disagree
