Oh, that’s just one of the little things. There are a whole bunch of unwritten rules married guys need to understand and live by in order to survive.

Such as...
  • If a man asks what is wrong and the wife says "nothing," don’t ever, EVER, believe it.
  • Crying is an acceptable form of blackmail the wife utilizes.
  • If you fail to understand your wife's subtle hints your life is over.

Good to know

I been marry for 17 years. I had funky dream once with my husband in it that had whip. He said not even in my dream was I allowed to play with a whip and him. I love the guy buy socks only end up on top of the washer and all over the floor. Never in washer. Has for your dream. Maybe she wanted to play with you and whip and you said no in the dream.

....Made from the same Neanderthal mold....I can easily get myself in trouble merely by the fact I exist....and the memory of my mate embarrasses the legendary recall of elephants....anymore, I simply tell her when I'm being castigated for something-to merely insert my favorite excuses whenever a pause allows....that way I can just continue to stare off into space like the pure dimwit I am....

All women have that ;)

B and I have been married for 36 years. I give him much more credit than me for this as I surely scored the husband jackpot with him. We've had bumps but, truly, I simply don't know where I'd be without him.

I remember the Australian actress, Ruth Cracknell being interviewed after her husband died. They had gone overseas for a holiday and suddenly he contracted some weird bug( I think in Venice, Italy) and he died within days. I could tell she had lost the will to live. When your'e with someone like that you become like twins. Same when my father died and I was at his grave and the guy next to him died two weeks before and his wife and daughter were there, and I said something like, "don't worry, you'll meet him again" and I wish I didn't say it because she died within a year of her husbands death. Just because someone you love dies shouldn't mean you lose the will to live.

Pray that she keeps bitchin' cause when she gets quiet, that is when she's thinking and nothing good is coming from that.

J and I made 33 and I was asked before we married....could I spend about 95% of my time with him, doing nothing? I said yes and turns out it was a very pertinent question.
Every time I wish J would forget the way home, I understand that he wishes the same thing. Probably more.

Men tend to marry women who remind them of their mothers, not necessarily in looks, but more so in personality. I'm not sure about women, I think first they look for someone who can be financial, and give their children the best chance. That's why you'll often see nice looking women with nice personality's married to passive/agressive, alpha male types. Like accountants and lawyers/businessmen. It is total rubbish when women say that they want some tender, understanding guy.
