Yukiko was someone I met at a wedding after-party. She was drinking with a woman I knew, and the two of them were friends. When the after-party ended early, a small group of attendees who had been chatting nearby decided to go out for more drinks, and Yukiko joined us. That night, sitting next to her, we got into a lively conversation and she opened up about her life. Yukiko is already married and has been for five years, but she confided that she's had almost no relationship with her husband lately.
