    We come across so many incidents in daily life,as reported by newspapers, where violence has become part and parcel of any relationship. Breakups do not end smoothly, but more tragically, where violence is committed on the other person as retaliation. Are we slowly turning in to a sick society, where intolerance dominates any relationship!

    :hello:Yes precisely that is what it is.
    2. it is strange in the eastern hemisphere vis a vis western where divorce among celebrities celebrated with clinking glasses in gala party in presence of VIPs and paparazzi. East or West, while dissensions in relationship seemed to be largely endured or tolerated among certain classes of people, it is a sad commentary in rural India where illiterates and even some educated well to-do could not and can not settle their private disputes in camera.
    3. I remember to have read a detective story in which the spouse devise ingenious method using her writer husband who daily seals envelopes in hundreds and affix stamp to each licking it with tongue. it was detected eventually by police (FBI or Scotland yard - am dubious about it). without disclosing her unhappiness, She continued to serve him his food and other services. When he was separating the stamps along the perforated stamp pages, she used to be thrilled inwardly as she had already covered the page glue coated side with slow poison; for almost a year this was going on. the police suspected that a young seemingly hale and healthy with no medical history could not have died out of natural causes.
    4. The detective fiction authoress famous quotes includes "An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have. The older she gets the more interested he is in her."
    "Good advice is always certain to be ignored, but that's no reason not to give it."

    "It is a curious thought, but it is only when you see people looking ridiculous that you realize just how much you love them."

    5. Yes you had guessed the authoress already - AGATHA CHRISTIE.
    Regards and Thanks.

    God Bless Us All Always.

    When younger , i used to read a lot of crime stories . In each one , the criminal , usually acrooked genius, will use some very intelligent ways to do crime . I always used to wonder if such stories and movies were actually teaching even non-intelligent people to commit clever crimes .....and sometimes we do read of cases where the criminal confesses to be influenced by certain movie characters .
