I just found out the wife of a guy we know has left him. He came home and her clothes and jewelry were gone, and she wrote a note on the back of an envelope that said "I can't live here anymore, take care of the dog." He called her job and they told him she had quit and moved to Atlanta.
The dog has lymphoma and a few months to live. Her adult son from a prior marriage is getting out of prison at the end of the year and has no other family in Rhode Island. They just took out a second mortgage on their house to make a bunch of improvements she wanted.
Apparently she went to Atlanta with some friends this summer and hooked up with a guy she went to high school with and fell in love with him. I'm shocked.

I don't know her well, but she always seemed OK. She's a nurse, for heaven's sake! I expect nurses to be steady.
I haven't talked to him yet -- he called another friend and asked her to tell people because it's too painful for him to recount the story -- but he has seen a lawyer.
When I was in those work stress classes a couple years ago, there was a nurse in the class who was BSC.
Holy crap that's insane. If I saw a movie with that plot, I would say "Well, at least people don't do that in real life."
Poor guy.
Sounds like he has a good support system in place, though.
