A Woman's Week At The Gym

Smooth talker? Yeah, I have been told that.  Silver tongued devil?  Yeah, I have been called that, also.  Adored?  Hopefully.

I would start a new thread called "wife-isms", but there aren't enough of them and some should remain unspoken as not to give away all the secrets that only men share.

As stated, husbands are the scape goats when anything goes wrong and the wife can't find anyone else to blame.  Now, you ask, why does this happen?  

This happens because, deep down, your wife knows you love her and will do anything for her.  This includes shouldering the blame or responsibility when she goofs up.  She knows that you will accept that position or pay the consequences.

As stated, if husbands are asked to share in a project to improve the wife's appearance or physical shaping up, it is like anything else the husband is asked to do.  There is no "no" in a husbands vocabulary.  The only time the husband can say "no" is when the wife asks something she truly wants the answer to, but, keep in mind, his opinion may not necessarily count if in her mind, she believes him to be stupid and wonders why she even asked him in the first place.  In which case, he has used up one of his "no's."

Assuming a husband is actually allowed to sleep 8 hours at one time, he knows the other 16 will be devoted to whatever his wife wants him to do.  Now, this is not all bad because this could be a project that both feel is necessary and needs to be done.  There are times when the wife wants to accomplish something that is not in the husband's best interest and he doesn't want do it.  Getting out of something like this is only accomplished by coming up with a project of his own which is more important to them as a couple.  But these are few and far between.  Feigning inadequacies sometimes works as in this example:

True Story------When I first married and we bought a house, we needed to paint the house.  I did this because it needed to be done to protect the safety of the structure of the house.  Years later, she decided the color wasn't right and wanted to paint the house again.  Now, there was no reason to paint other than changing the color.  I didn't want to do this.  We began painting and I did a sloppy job.  She is a good painter and commented that I should not paint because she just has to redo it.  This worked for many years until she finally figured it out.  Keep in mind this does not always work.

There is an old saying--------A good woman stands behind her man-------------------This is so whatever bad is going to happen, it is going to protect her because it will happen to him first.  Or, they are walking through the deep snow and he is breaking the trail.

All of this aside, a husband strives to keep his wife happy because this ensures his own happiness.    If both strive to keep each other happy and not find faults all the time, they will have a happy life together.

just ranting.
