(4,406 posts)I'm surprised we haven't heard about a lot more high profile divorces.
Suspect that a lot of Silicon Valley Aspies and their wives could hack the relationship part time when they have enough money to give each other a lot of space for personal projects but then see things in a totally different light after being housebound with their spouse for a year. See also Jeff Bezos.

That may not be why but makes me wonder.
