Sorry Bootneck... can't play this game. Relationships are a two way street, not one. If I have to work over time to make her happy, and her not me, then that's no kind of relationship to be in.

50-50 is the rule, not 90-10, or 80-20, or 70-30, or 60-40..... it's 50-50.

The only part of your post I disagree with, is the 50 -50 rule. In a relationship, it is 100% by both parties as best you can every single day.

You can say it as you like, but what you said is just another way to say what I said...

OMG that is so funny!

It FLUCTUATES between 30-70 and 70-30. but the middle of the pendulum is 50-50.

Each person giving 50% is not the same as each person giving 100%. If we are in agreement, that is fine. However, what you actually said is not the same as what I said, even if you meant for it to be in your mind.

You can't be expected to give 100% all the time, everyone has their bad days. If one can pick up the other's slack on bad days, there's strength within the relationship.

I don't base my relationship on points. If we go out to a sports bar one night, and the girl is less than happy about it, it'll be made up on the next night out when she picks the venue.

This thread was funny, but you women really oughta stop trying to have that stranglehold. You can be replaced, you know

So can you boys......................


I love sports bars during football and basketball season, love to watch the game with my fellow fans. There are some dudes out there that aren't into sports and would rather go disco dancing!

Sports bar was one example, but the point is we can share our nights out.

And that guy going disco dancing probably isn't concerned with women anyway

The only thing that makes me happy is having an impossible man and getting what I want anyway, by means only the Secret Sisterhood know about

If you follow us around showering us with what we want, it gets boring

what are you talking about? I surely hope you are not talking about holding out to get something you want because I've never bought into that crap. If I want it, I get it, if it's out of our budget I discuss it with the husband. Holding out sex is just wrong! What the hell marry for if you are going to do something like that to someone you supposedly love. I don't get it.

Terry, I never said holding out sex, are you kidding me? Isn't that one of the few legitimate reasons to be divorced? And though sex is important, it's not everything a man wants. And most men can get sex just about anywhere anyway.

But there are certain ways to respond to a man that, (smiling at the memories)...

 

[Terry]

Jen, I still have no idea what you were or are talking about. Seriously I'm lost on your train of thought.

It's mostly respect and admiration, Terry.

In this world full of feminists, men don't find that so much. And when we take the time to notice and comment on it in sincerity, it's like the world at our feet.

But since I'm still MARRIED, (sure doesn't seem like it) I'm locked in the nunnery.

 

[Terry]

Um...OK....but do you see how your first post made me think you were talking about something else, or was that just me reading it wrong? It was like WTF.... "Secret Sisterhood"????? Never known a secret sisterhood, guess I've been left out of that loop.

I scored the maximum negative score, less a few hundred more points...

That happened to me once, only she fell asleep on me!

 

[Terry]

I see what you mean Jen, but I don't have to try or even think about doing or saying things, it comes natural. I'm the type that when the man comes home and I ask "How was your day" I really want to hear how his day was, and take great interest. Most don't care, they are just words when they ask.

It's a shame but some woman out there are just horrible.

There are one or two bad men out there too so don't feel real guilty.
