Helped Tenants Marriage Win/Win/Win!

So about a month ago, we sent notices to renew our tenants leases, we received a reply from one of our tenants(married couple, great quiet tenants, always pay on time), she said that her and her husband were struggling in their marriage and were thinking about splitting in August, so wanted to know is they could do a shortened lease and if she could find roommates afterwards cause she wanted to stay either way.

Anyway I gave her the Five Love Languages audiobook(my favorite relationship book) and she said she would give it a listen.

Two weeks later, she and her husband(reluctantly at first), listened to it all the way through. She said they spent a lot of time talking and crying... she said it was really good.

Anyway yesterday they gave us notice that they would be renewing for the whole year!
