I think she's a size 6 at Express, where we do most of our shopping now. |

Every 40 minutes or so I blurt out "I'm really sorry, honey." This confuses the hell out of her and she goes nuts trying to figure out what in the world I'm sorry for. Then she'll ask, "what did YOU do?" And I'll reply, "oh you know what!"
Then she'll say, "No, I don't know what?"
Me: "well, if you can't remember the forget it."
This drives her nuts, then she realizes she's just been hit with reverse physchology, and only women are suppossed to fight battles like that.
I get a slap upside the head and about 40 minutes later....."Im sorry.." I can't even tell you how many times I've done that.. just to get my face ripped off because, "YOU SAY SORRY TOO MUCH... SHUT UP!!!!" I lose even playing THAT game. =/ |

I just tell my wife to "shut the fuck up." Seems to work most of the time. In fact, more often than not, she jumps my bones after I say that.
Reminds me of an article I read in the woman's-advice-to-men column of Men's Health during my first tour in Iraq. The author related a story about a friend of hers, who, it seems, had for some trivial reason gotten pissed off by the guy she had just started dating. So (apparently just to see what kind of stuff he was made off) she started bitching him out, and the new boyfriend, distraught, started apologizing profusely. But no matter what he said, she kept on bitching, so he kept asking for forgiveness, to no avail, until finally he lost his patience, and he yelled, "Would you kindly shut the fuck up!"
Her jaw dropped, and then she launched herself into his arms and dragged him into bed. According to the author, it's been several years, and they've been screwing like rabbits ever since.
The moral of the story: Women don't LIKE men who are weak enough to take their shit all the time. It's a lesson I've never forgotten. |

I'm SURE she hasn't forgotten ANY of the things you said!!!LOL! :thumbleft: Someone should do a scientific study of that differential. Why is it that wives are so able to drag up crap from like a bazillion years ago at the exact moment that it will do her the most good in the argument department. I spend half my life trying to remember shit she has already dragged up and fail in that regard also. I don't know if my personal tendency to keep my big yap shut has been learned, trained, or indicative of some semblance of ...dare I say it?...wisdom? Perhaps that's what wisdom is, at least for us married men. :thumbleft: For me, if I bring stuff that we talked about that happened many moons ago its because it was never solved in the first place. Ed always says that was then, this is now, but things do fester over time if they are not talked about and solved. Not for men. :grin: Men live in the moment, I think sometimes woman need to live in the moment as well. :reindeer: |

I would've just bought a size 4 and if she couldn't fit in it, serve her with divorce papers. (1/2 joking......truthfully, 1/4 joking) |

If i told my wife to "Shut the F up" I'd be dead.
Well....not dead, but it wouldn't work for me.
(I know.......tried it already) |

there's "rough" & there's rude - i like rough, not so much with the rudeness though.
as far as the saying you're sorry issue. i have the BEST line i've ever used against a man..."don't you get tired of saying you're sorry cuz i sure as hell get tired of hearing it!" my inner bitch came out with that one - i'm usually a very nice person. :D |

You're probably right, but our relationship has already been through hard times (and that's not including the two of our first three years we were separated by the Atlantic Ocean and endless miles of hot sand). What I discovered was that her attraction for me was slowly being sapped because I was too nice, too considerate, too polite, putting her desires too much before my own. Once I got more assertive, demanding, and yes, selfish, WOW! She's way more attracted to me now after five years of marriage than she was when we met, and that's saying a lot. |

The dumbest thing I've done????
A couple of years ago my daughter was in the pub near to where we lived with her friend.
I got to 11PM and my wife asked me to ring her to ask when she'd be home.
I did, and she said she was having her last drink and would be home in about 15 minutes. So I told the wife.
Well I'd had a few gin and tonics by then so when she asked me 10 minutes later to ring her again to check she was coming home I said the immortal words......
"Get off your fat arse and ring her your fecking self!!"
Let me tell you Christmas morning was far less fun than a barrel of frogs!!! |

Here's a real brain teaser my wife sent me via a forwarded e-mail. Personally, I think it lacks her usual subtlety.  |
 damn skippy I'm an owner. I currently own a full .00001924537805515393 % of the Green Bay Packers. |
