Some final thoughts on the jealousy between Andy and Helen. I think part of the reason there wasn't much jealousy betwixt Andy and Peggy was that they didn't know each other long enough for jealousy to exist. Peggy came to Mayberry, met Andy, went on a few dates, and then she was gone. Helen on the other hand was with Andy for the long haul and those jealousy traits had some time to develop and fester.
I have been married for 42 years to the same wonderful woman. I can honestly say that neither of us has ever experienced one bit of jealousy. I have many "girl friends" that I have worked with for many years and we have very close friendships. My wife has worked all our married life among hundreds of different men. The reason we haven't had any jealousy is because we have trust. For Valentine's Day I told my wife that I would like to give a Valentine to three of the really nice women that I work with. She not only approved, she went and bought the Valentines without my asking. I wrote in each one and I asked her if she wanted to read what I wrote. She said no. She then took the Valentines and drove to Festival Foods and delivered them to the gals. Now that is the way our married life has been for 42 years. I suppose I should add the disclaimer, that Linda also knows that there isn't another woman out there who would ever want me, so she feels very safe. -- Ken Anderson The Mayberry Guru 2906 May Street Eau Claire, Wisconsin 54701 www.mayberryreflections.com _______________________________________________ WBMUTBB mailing list [email protected] http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
