Re: need a translator to understand my girl

I was raised with 3 sisters....have 2 ex wives and one present that I've been married to for 20 yrs...I can honestly tell you that you never will figure them out....
a number of yrs ago I was a wedding photographer...and invariably the groom would ask me for advice...I'd look him square in the eyes and tell him...if there is one thing you have to learn...and if it's the only thing you learn in a marriage...learn the 2 words...it will save your sanity....those 2 words are ..."YES DEAR"......learn those and life will be soooooo much easier....

LOL at BMBruce! I was thinking that as I read it, but you put it so eloquently!

As for understanding them, oops,if you do that, and make a translator for the rest of us males, you will make all kinds of money!

A reliable translator for this situation has never existed. No matter what wild claims or promises the said translator implies there will come a time the system fails. Resources are better used on maintenance items such as jewelry, vacations, day spas, flowers, dinners and such. :p;):D:D

"Yes dear" and "how much do you need?" are the only words I am allowed to use at home!:p

Re: need a translator to understand my girl

Yeah, we feel your pain! I do strongly believes that every woman should come with a very specific user/service manual. Yesterday, my dearest told me that she's just like her mother. There have to be a specific steps to everything, everything is very delicate and complex and fragile. If one step is mess up/miss, the whole thing is fubar. I told her "so you're telling me, y'all are like a puzzle with a death trap behind it. Like if you're going into a treasure cave and you didn't have everything figured out, the whole cave would crumble and trap you in it forever" She said, "yeah, kinda like that". I feels like Indiana Jones, avoiding death trap is part of my everyday life.:D Every new day is a new adventure. :D I pleaded to her to just draw me a frigging map already that way it saves everyone the aggravation. She just looked at me and laughed as if to say, you wish. :(

LOL, here's the way to fix this problem - be a father to a child who's momma is someone that you are no longer involved with, and have a GF who has her own home but likes living in it better than yours! Works great!

Gotta agree with that...if y'all's significant others are really like that you have my condolences...but I would never spend my life like that. If we're just having some hyperbolic fun, well that's a different story...:)

I guess she doesn't have a credit card if you had to give her cash. How did you ever manage that?

Just wait until she tells you everything is "fine".

Translation, she was trying to ask you, and would have been more straightforward about it, except you made that comment about having earned it via a job. After a comment like that, how can one directly ask for money?

Oh, like you find one of these every day. I'd pay real money to find a woman like that.

Plenty of them 'for sale' in the newspaper :D:D

And they do ask for real money, but most are willing to settle for a credit card.
