I was talking with a husband and wife business team in their office.  Things seemed pretty normal until the husband left to go to another meeting.  As soon as the door closed behind him the wife turned to me and announced:

Tenant:  I’m divorcing him.  I own the business and I’m kicking him out.  I just thought you should know so you can be ready for it.

Me:  What?  Oh my gosh.  I’m so sorry to hear that.  When is it going to happen?

Tenant:  Immediately.  It’s already in process.  I know he won’t go easily either!   He’s going to fight!  He’s going to go crazy!  I’ll need the police here to escort him out! You better be ready for this!

Me:  I am so sorry.  This must just be awful for you but I really need to know when you’re planning to do all this.  This is a serious safety concern for everyone in the building.

Tenant:  I don’t know when it’s going to happen exactly  but it’s going to be very soon!   He’s going to be angry but the police will handle him!  I really don’t know what is going to happen but I do know it’s going to be huge showdown!  He’s going to go crazy!

She finally agreed to let me know before anything happened.  I quickly got with our legal team to make sure we had everything in order on our end.  Prepared our staff for the event. It was like a big ticking divorce bomb was about to go off!  Then we waited for the word….

But then the husband and wife disappeared!  They just stopped coming into the office.  Weeks went by.   Delivery people were leaving notices on the door, the mailman said the box was filling up.  Where were they?  What happened?

Then they reappeared in the office again as though nothing had happened!  I ran into them in the hallway and they told me all about how they took a trip to Europe.  It was romantic and lovely and everything was just wonderful.

Later I had a chance to talk with the wife when she was alone.

Me:  I’m happy to see you worked things out with husband.  It must be such a relief to set that big divorce action aside.

Tenant (with a confused expression on her face):  I have no idea what you’re talking about.

Me:  You told me about your plan to divorce him and kick him out of the office.  Don’t you remember?  We had that conversation right here in this room before you left on vacation?

Tenant (with another perplexed look ):  No.  I really don’t know what you’re talking about.

Me:  Really?  You don’t remember that you were planning to have the police here to kick him out?  That there was going to be a big showdown?  That he was going to go crazy?  You told me to get prepared for it and I did.  You don’t remember talking about that with me?  Really?

Tenant (chuckling and shaking her head):  Oh my gosh, no.  You must have me confused with someone else.

Yeah.  He’s the crazy one.
