Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor Page #3
Do I know you from somewhere?
I doubt we run in the same circles.
Do you run?
Yeah, every day at...
Landover Park. I knew it.
You run there?
8:
00 a.m. every Saturday.Start at the wheelhouse...
I think I have seen you run past me before.
You're that cheesy guy always running
with his shirt off and making grunts.
- I'm not cheesy.
- Yeah, you are.
I get hot.
No, you're running with your shirt off
so all the pretty girls could notice you.
Well, you noticed me, right?
Turn to page two.
You'll see the compatibility questionnaire.
All business.
I like that.
Hey, you.
How was your third week? Any better?
Oh, God.
That bad, huh'?
Honey, what am I doing there?
I have a master's degree.
Why am I wasting my time in some snobby
office helping old men get a date?
Is that what I busted my butt in college
Like, it don't make sense.
Babe, it'll get there.
But, baby, I really feel like I'm getting stuck.
You know what I had to do today?
I just spent three hours with some cheesy
computer guy named Harley something.
The Class-Meet guy?
Was he looking for a date?
No. Does everyone know
about this guy except for me?
Baby, you should. He's loaded.
Wow. You sound like Ava.
Man. I have to get outta there
and start my own practice.
Babe, that's a long ways off.
I figure in about 10 to 15 years
we'll be established enough
to take that chance.
But right now you don't need
10 to 15 years?
Great, that's encouraging. Thanks, baby.
And my mother called me today.
And she's coming into town
for some revival or something.
Which is just what I need.
The stress of this job
and the judgment of my mother.
You know she's gonna be
bothering me about you, asking me,
"Judith Ann, have you been
doing your wifely duties?"
Yes, Mother, I have been cooking for him,
I have been cleaning,
and I have been having sex with him
three times a week,
just like it says in the Bible.
It says three times a week, baby?
Then you've been slacking.
Shut up. I'm kidding.
I'm not. And...
You know that little thing you do
on birthdays and holidays?
I wonder what your mother
would say about that.
My mother doesn't know
about that little trick
I give you on birthdays and holidays.
And if she did, you wouldn't get it anymore.
I'm gonna get up.
I'm gonna go make you some dinner.
No. You know what I'm gonna do for you?
I'm gonna take you out to dinner.
That $1.99 buffet again, baby?
Made my stomach hurt.
No, I'm gonna take you
somewhere nice and fancy.
- Really?
- Yeah, come on, let's go.
