Othello syndrome on Halloween

Post by Gob »

A woman who forced her fiancé to take a lie detector test to prove he has been faithful every time he left the house has married him.

Debbie Wood, 43, from Leicester was so afraid her boyfriend, now husband, Steve Wood, 31, would stray she even combed his phone, email accounts and bank statements for signs of infidelity several times a day. But she has now put her fears to one side and married Mr Wood in a Halloween ceremony

Mr and Mrs Wood made headlines last year after she was diagnosed with a rare condition, Othello Syndrome, that causes delusional jealousy. She had even banned him from watching women on television or looking at pictures of them in magazines.

‘I think he’s gorgeous, but that’s not the issue - it’s about whether or not I can trust him not to look at other women while he is out on his own,' she had said. ‘I don’t want him thinking they’re hot. If you’re in a relationship and you’re happy with your partner, you should only have eyes for that person.’

The couple started dating in 2011 after they met through a friend. Mrs Wood had spent ten years living in the U.S. but moved back to Britain four years ago after another long-term relationship broke down.

“If you trust in yourself, and believe in your dreams, and follow your star. . . you'll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy.”

Loser on loser play is a type of declarer's play in contract bridge, usually in trump contracts, where the declarer discards a loser card (the one that is bound to be given up anyway) on an opponent's winner, instead of ruffing
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts
