Talking about 'disputes outside' I saw a man positvely berate his wife in a drug store a few weeks ago, hurling insults in loudest voice using the most vile of words, she looked on the verge of tears.. I really wanted to stick out my foot so he'd trip on it as walked into my isle..
it hurt me by proxy, I can't imagine how she must have been feeling, she just followed him, taking it..
Sob7an Allah..
Hard to imagine staying in a marriage like that.. they were slightly elderly...
hmmm
Text without context is pretext If your opponent is of choleric temperament, seek to irritate him
I havnt read this but if they're arent there already, id like to add:
dont compare her cooking to your mothers!!! :mad: :X
oh, and take her to vist her family. Piece of advice: brothers, you didnt pluck her from a tree. You took her from her family, so to speak. Do good by her, and dont 'forbid' her from her family. it'll probably help your relationship too.
1 .Don't talk so much
Listen to her. she needs someone to hear her out.
2 .food always on the table not even a second late
okay, this one just made me mad. dont like her job, do it yourself.
4 .watch football/soccer matches with him without looking Disinterested
do 'her things' with out looking disinterested.
5.DO NOT!! talk about hes embarrasing issues what ever they are,infront of him when others are around
I agree. same applies
