How important is sex or money in a couple's married life?

My best friend is enduring a severe loneliness in his five room house after his wife of almost twenty four years left him. He couldn't believe his wife filed for divorce, after she came back from Puerto Rico and Italy trips sometime in August.

Born to poor parents, he did his best to finish his studies, worked hard, and raised a family. He has grownup kids like me and now that he's older and will retire soon, his most cherished dream of having his wife grow old with him left him. I'd thought both of them are working it out until I found out he was hospitalised due to overdose on the night of his birthday!

Thirteen months ago, he hurt his back due to a bad fall. Whether his back pain has something to do with the divorce or not, it remains to be seen. Should the couple made final settlements in February next year, my best friend will not only endure the cold nights of sleeping alone but, will give the wife what is due...

I had also a broken dream and it took me couple of years to move on.
