LILI, 47, feels emotionally dead inside because the love of her life is gone and the husband she has no more feelings for is due to come out of jail in a couple of months.
Lili, a mother of two, had called the Chinese newspapers last week in a bid for help to get in touch with the boyfriend, who has disappeared.
She just wants to know if he is alive and well.
In the midst of telling her story, another story emerged - that of a husband who had allegedly forced himself on her constantly.
Lili, who works in sales, was extremely reluctant to talk about it, but claimed that her husband of 10 years, whom she wants to divorce, always had sex on his mind.
"I married him and a few years later I realised that I couldn't stand him any more. He never supported the family. My feelings for him died and I didn't want to have sex with him any more. But he never took no for an answer," she said.
When she left the marital home, he called her repeatedly to cajole her to return home.
"He said he wanted me to come home to look after the children. I told him that I would come home only if we had no more relations as husband and wife. He said okay," she said.
But once she was home, he allegedly went back on his word and forced himself on her again and again.
He was also into pornography and always talked about sex to her, Lili claimed.
Then about five years ago, she got to know a man who was 10 years younger than her.
He went with some friends to the neighbourhood coffee shop she was working at and ordered some drinks. Then he gave her a $50 tip because he had just won the lottery.
