You Did That to Me? John K. Ritz

As a business owner of a Bagel Shoppe that served many kinds of flavored and unflavored coffees after the lunch rush you have time to sit and unwind. While the help was cleaning up and preparing for that nights Bagel making activities I could have a quite cup of coffee. Once in a while, a parent that came to pick up their kid or spouse would sit with me while I was winding down and start a conversation. You become the bartender or should I say coffee-tender or tea-tender for problems of the frustrated housewife. One mother would show up almost everyday looking for sympathy telling me what happened to her but never divulging all the details. I was able to fi ll in most of the between the lines information having some what of the same back ground as her ex-husband.
That was my inspiration to write this book. You can learn a lot if you listen and weed out the one sided opinion when you hear both sides from one person. The most important lesson to be learned here is how vulnerable a woman can be while still in a man?s world. She was certain nothing like this could happen to her.
COULD THIS HAPPEN TO YOU?
