The Clean Break
Language: en
I was very satisfied with my arranged marriage because my husband kept himself clean and had strong moral boundaries. So, during a dinner party, when I saw him peel a shrimp for his female assistant, I didn't say anything. But the night we got home, I bought ten pounds of shrimp and dumped them in front of him. "Peel them. You seem to be pretty good at it." A man who lacks boundaries—if he can learn to behave, I'll make do. If he can't, I'll just replace him. After all, I'm a germaphobe.
