A Macedonian man left his wife at an Italian service station and only realized he had driven off without her six hours later, news agency Ansa said.
The couple, who were travelling with their 4-year-old daughter, pulled over for petrol in the coastal city of Pesaro as they were heading back to their home to Germany.
After filling the tank, the husband drove away -- without noticing that his 30-year-old wife, originally from Georgia, had got out of the car to go to the toilet.

I hope he likes the couch, because that's where he's going to be sleeping for about a year.

He must have that selective hearing I read about today.

I'm not a marriage and family therapist, but that can't be particularly healthy for the marriage.

The husband told police he had not missed his wife because she always sat in the back of the car with their daughter. ... and remained perfectly silent?
Not bloody likely...

The quiet should have been a dead giveaway...

Didn't Flannery O'Connor write a story about something like that?

How could he have NOT missed the nagging, bitching, complaining and driving instructions for 6 hours? There is more to this story!

The couch? Try the dog house. Men....can't live with them, can't kill 'em.

By any chance, does this guy work in a shoe store, and drive a Dodge?

Sounds like the makings of a country western hit.

My guess is the quiet was mandated by their religion. She probably also got smacked around for getting left behind.
To: advance_copy
Dang.
I hate it when I do that.

What's the big deal here? I have done that a host of times.
And, I have been advised it gets worse. *S*

He didn't notice her missing because he had thought he had gone deaf. And he liked it!!!
