Ben
Hi honey, what do you want for dinner tonight?
Jane
It honestly doesn’t matter.
Ben
What about Chinese, Pizza, Mexican?
Jane
I really don’t care Ben.
Ben
Okay, I don’t want to get something and you say no when I get home.
Jane
I told you already, do whatever you want.
Jane
You really don’t listen.
Ben
I am trying to be a good husband and ask what you want for dinner.
Ben
I don’t need the attitude.
Ben
This isn’t even about dinner is it?
Jane
How did you figure that?
Ben
Honestly, Jane. What is going on?
Jane
I am just frustrated a lot.
Jane
I think I’ll spend the night at my mother’s tonight.
Ben
If that is what you want.
Ben
Can I ask you something?
Ben
Are you frustrated with us?
Ben
Why? I thought we were good.
Jane
It’s just not the same anymore.
Jane
We’ve been married for a year and it’s not what I thought.
Jane
You just are different.
Ben
How? I thought we were good.
Jane
I just think I thought marriage was something else.
Jane
It’s made me look at you differently.
Ben
Is there anything I can do to fix it?
Ben
Just help me understand.
Ben
I still love you Jane.
Jane
I just need some time to think.
Jane
I told you I’m staying at my mothers.
Jane
We can talk tomorrow.
Jane
What do you want me to say?
Ben
Just help me understand.
Jane
I guess it started after we got married.
Jane
You started working more.
Ben
I know but I was doing that for us.
Jane
But it changed things.
Jane
I guess I realized how independent I was able to be without you.
Jane
Marriage wasn’t what I really wanted anyway.
Ben
Then why did you say yes?
Jane
I thought it was what I had to.
Ben
You could have said no.
Jane
Well you would have been heartbroken.
Jane
And everyone in my family is married.
Jane
I didn’t want to be the odd one out.
Ben
So that’s why you married me?
Ben
Because you wanted to be like everyone else in your family?
Ben
So then you didn’t love me?
Jane
No. I did love you at first.
Ben
I don’t understand this.
Ben
So what is it that you want?
Jane
I just want some time to figure things out.
Ben
So are you not coming back tonight?
Jane
No, I’m staying at my moms.
Ben
Well do you think we’re gonna get a divorce?
Ben
Like is that what you want?
Ben
So there is nothing I can do to fix it?
Ben
Don’t you remember how we were when we first met.
Ben
I took you to go see your favorite movie, remember?
Ben
And we had fun, didn’t we?
Ben
Then there was our six months and that’s when I said I loved you.
Ben
I invited you to my family barbeque.
Ben
Those were good times.
Ben
We can have them again.
Ben
No, you are my wife and I love you.
Ben
Yeah, I may have been busy at work
Ben
and we haven't had much time together but I can fix it now.
Jane
I really don’t think you can Ben.
Ben
You aren’t even trying.
Ben
What are you talking about.
Jane
Those times I tried organizing a mini getaway for us, you always said no.
Jane
Well that was me trying to save our marriage.
Ben
What's the place you wanted to go to? Hawaii.
Ben
We can do that now and it’ll fix our marriage. I know it would.
Jane
I know you are trying but I am done.
Ben
Jane, just let me try more.
Ben
I didn't know last time and now I know.
Jane
That’s my point Ben.
Jane
You should have tried before me telling you.
Jane
Well it doesn’t change anything now.
Ben
I still love you, you know.
Jane
I’ll be staying with my mom for the week.
Jane
I’ll come over and pick up my stuff while you’re at work.
Ben
So we aren’t even going to see each other?
Ben
Don’t you think you owe me that?
Jane
I just think it’s what is best Ben.
Jane
I’ll leave the keys on the table in the entry way.
Jane
I have a lawyer already so you should think of getting one.
Jane
It’s for the divorce.
