Quote context

[...]

- And thank you for not asking.

- Not asking what?

- What's this woman doing chasing all over England without her husband?

- Oh, that.

- I ran away. It's always a mistake, isn't it? I mean, you have to face things in the end.

- I left home because Bill fell in love with another woman.

- He takes the romantic view. If you love someone, you marry them. I'm Number Two. He wants me to give him a divorce so he can marry Number Three.

- I see.

- Bill's an alcoholic.

- He's compulsively unfaithful.

- And he's sometimes violent, and I guess I haven't loved him for years.

- He's violent?

- Only when he's drunk and he doesn't really know what he's doing.

- It's just that he's worn me out. It's the truth of it.

- Joy, look, if there's anything I can do...

- There is. You'll be my friend.

- I hope I'm that already.
