Alexandra Marinina (real name Marina Alekseeva) met her husband Sergei Zatochny when she was 32 years old. But she got married only at 40. At the same time, she knew for sure that her expectation of happiness would last exactly 8 years. And I was sure the marriage would be happy and cloudless. Today she is an absolutely insecure and happy person and at the same time an ideal wife.
Life until happiness
She has always been a very responsible person. Since childhood, when her parents left her alone at home. If she was told that she needed to go to bed at nine in the evening, then at exactly nine she closed the book and went to bed. Until 10 years old, until I realized: no one would know about her late bedtime.
The school couldn’t change anything particularly in its worldview, but it didn’t leave any positive impressions about itself either. Parents asked their daughter to the fullest extent, but she had no friends in the class. The girls considered her fat and ugly, and the future detective star learned to be self-sufficient. She is still never bored alone. But from childhood she retained amazing self-confidence.
In her youth, men did not indulge her with their attention, and Marina Alekseevna learned to appreciate a good attitude towards herself. The first young man who offered her a hand and a heart received her consent. True, the passionate love that surged a little later, led her to marriage with a completely different person.
She met the son of her mother's friend at the age of 19 and got married very quickly. It soon became clear that falling in love was over, and life with a stranger, in fact, a person does not bring much joy. She even helped her husband collect things and walked him to the taxi. And during the divorce in the registry office, they both rejoiced at being freed from casual marriage bonds and managed to maintain a warm attitude towards each other.
Accidental acquaintance
For a long time, everything in her life was simple and ordinary. Her favorite job, where she could do analytics and conduct scientific research in the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, had new titles (she retired with the rank of police lieutenant colonel), was her beloved friend Irina, with whom she could talk about everything in the world. And then a man appeared who managed to win her heart. On February 27, she rode in tram number 27. The man who was standing next to her put away his bag and invited her to become more comfortable.
Alexandra Marinina, completely averse to casual acquaintances, unexpectedly got into a conversation with her fellow traveler. They got off at one stop, went one way. It was not a sudden feeling or love at first sight. It was the usual conversation between two people with similar interests. It turned out that Sergei Zatochny is a policeman, studying in Moscow at the post-graduate school, in Obninsk he has a wife and a ten-year-old son.
It was comfortable for them to be in each other's company, they could be silent for hours, walking around the city, they could talk for hours, finding more and more new topics for communication.
Long wait
And then he left. Completed postgraduate studies, he returned to his hometown. And only then Marina Anatolyevna realized how much she lacked this charming, strong, laconic person. She sobbed into the pillow and did not know if they could ever be around or not. And she began to write.
Later, they had a conversation about the future. He said that he could not leave his son and must bring him to adulthood so as not to psychologically traumatize the child at a difficult age, and she agreed to wait. Her patience was enviable. She really waited patiently until his son turned 18 and they had the opportunity to be together. She didn't throw up scandals, didn't go into hysterics. She returned from work in the dark and sat down to write. The reader reviewed her books very quickly, they were actively bought. Alexandra Marinina has become a popular author.
Impossible real happiness
Sergei Zatochny kept his promise. When his son turned 18, he filed for a divorce, and in 1997 Marina Alekseeva and Sergei Zatochny became husband and wife. He affectionately calls her Manya, but she does not tell anyone how she calls her beloved spouse at home.
Her life changed once and for all. She quit her job and started writing. To protect herself from unpleasant conversations with publishers, she began to communicate with them through her literary agent.
Her marriage to Sergei Zatochny can be called ideal for both her and him. He touchingly cares so that she can not only work comfortably, but also have a productive and timely rest. She feels next to him, firstly, a beautiful and desirable woman, and everything else: a writer, a lieutenant colonel, a laureate - then.
She has her own secret on how to create an ideal family. Alexandra Marinina believes that she has never been an object of male worship. This taught her to appreciate the people around her. And when a man appeared with whom she felt good and calm, she tried to become just as interesting and comfortable for him.
When two people sincerely want to build a strong relationship, then they will definitely succeed. The 20-year marriage of Alexandra Marinina and Sergei Zatochny is a vivid example of this.
Alexandra Marinina often says that everyone has their own understanding and perception of love. The English writer believes that love is stronger than fear and stronger than death.
