I love my husband. He's my everything. But lately he's been so sad and I don't know why. I want to help but I don't know how. He doesn't speak to me anymore. He just sits there silently in his chair when he's home, not even sparing me a glance.

He used to always give me a kiss when he walked in and tell me about his day. But whenever I talk to him he just acts like he can't hear me.

I love my husband so much and it hurts me to see him so sad.

Tonight we went out to dinner, he didn't even wait for me to catch up when we went into the diner.

He just sat in his booth waiting for a waitress to serve him.

As I sit silently at our table I overhear a conversation between two of three waitresses.

" It's always so sad to see someone eat alone." The younger waitress says as she glances at the two of us.

" He's been alone since his wife died in a car crash last month. Poor man. She loved her husband so much." The older waitress said, shaking her head silently.
