(bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) Yeah. One of those men that gets things done while a women stands nearby, reciting a list of reasons why what he's doing can't be done. Back when we were younger I used to try logic - "here's the hammer, you fix it!" Nope, she don't fall for that, tells me that her side of the bargain was cooking and having kids, and damn but I can't do either. After forty-something years though we've sort of come to a solution. She still rants and rages and I don't listen. Keeps us both happy. Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) I'm very fortunate to have a wife who isn't at all like the one I described above. Tes...you are... |

Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) More couples should take lessons from the two of you....it's when people start listening to each other that problems start... I probably come from an older generation then you do but in my formative years divorce was just never discussed, in fact it seemed that divorced was a synonym for "Scarlet" when it was applied to women. As a result, in most cases, divorce just wasn't an option so couples learned to live together. Certainly some men are probably not easy to live with but some women aren't either with their constant carping. The difference is if you are headed toward a lifetime relationship, as we thought we were, we had a good look at what we were "getting into bed with". A survey made amongst collage women in the early '50's showed that these middle class maidens counted financial security far higher then a handsome, swinging, stud. So whether we had more consideration for "what will happen to the poor kids" or not, we did learn to live with each other. Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) |

You see, there you go making suppositions again. I let my wife clean the fish.. Actually we share and share alike - She gets to stay home and clean fish and have babies and I get to go out and thrash around to make enough money to support her. Pretty equitable, she reckons.
