“You gotta decide one thing

Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy”

couple married 53 years....I bet she jumps his ass for saying that on national news


That doesn’t bode well for men who believe in being right (especially when they are right!)

I take so much shit from my Italian wife on a regular basis that I don't give a fuck anymore. I tell her she's wrong even when she's right, doesn't make a difference really

I guess I've come to enjoy making her angry. I've always said to look for the silver lining, not the dark cloud

It's a matter or perspective I suppose

i'm working on 23rd year and if you don't live by the motto "happy wife, happy life" you won't see a few decades and you'll kiss half your money goodbye

the key is to stay away from drama for drama's sake. take a look at the drama queen fuck above me. he's fucked out of deep relationships for life because he's too stupid to separate the drama from the meaningful.

One of my friends lives by that motto, he thinks I'm crazy because I enjoy pushing my wife's buttons

Married 35 years, together 40 years this past New Year's Eve, and she's NOT going anywhere. She loves her life too much and she has it too easy

This theory applies to ALL your female relationships.

If you can get over the need to be right(even when you really are) then good success with women await.

They will put up with a BOATLOAD of you shit, so long as they can be right.
Ultimate satisfaction comes from being able to say "I told you so" or "gotcha", the euphoria
is greater than being in love to them.Stop-SS--

the problem here is we need to get back to the days of the samurai,,

It should be an Honor to Drain your husbands balls,,, shut up,,, cook dinner,, clean his house, and do his laundry,,

Ending that is essentially where it all went wrong,,

I suck at that too, I'd never get anything done

accountants have a problem...we want (have) to solve problems ...so when the wife comes in with “problems” we tell her how to “fix” them...problem is, she doesn’t want a solution...she wants to vent (whine, bitch, moan, cry, whatever) and what she really wants is her husband to say everything will be okay, hold her, give a hug, etc etc

They don’t teach that in high school or college

Any single guys or newlyweds really need to heed that advice!!!

However, sometimes you come across some old traditions that you simply can’t believe people ever followed — like these odd dating rituals throughout history.
But what women in the 1950s were expected to do for their husbands? Well, those traditions have certainly flown right out the window!
In May of 1955, Housekeeping Monthly published an article entitled, “The Good Wife’s Guide,” detailing all the ways that a wife should act and how best she can be a partner to her husband and a mother to her children.
It may feel a little strange to accept these rules today, but it remains so interesting to see how society once behaved.
Scroll further to see what rules mothers and housewives once had to follow, and let us know your thoughts in the comments below!

1.) Have dinner ready. Plan ahead, even the night before, to have a delicious meal ready, on time for his return. This is a way of letting him know that you have been thinking about him and are concerned about his needs.
2.) Most men are hungry when they come home and the prospect of a good meal (especially his favorite dish) is part of the warm welcome needed.

3.) Prepare yourself. Take 15 minutes to rest so you’ll be refreshed when he arrives. Touch up your makeup, put a ribbon in your hair and be fresh-looking. He has just been with a lot of work-weary people.
4.) Be a little gay and a little more interesting for him. His boring day may need a lift and one of your duties is to provide it.

5.) Clear away the clutter. Make one last trip through the main part of the house just before your husband arrives. Gather up schoolbooks, toys, paper, etc. and then run a dust cloth over the tables.

6.) Over the cooler months of the year you should prepare and light a fire for him to unwind by. Your husband will feel he has reached a haven of rest and order, and it will give you a lift too. After all, catering for his comfort will provide you with immense personal satisfaction.

7.) Prepare the children. Take a few minutes to wash the children’s hands and faces (if they are small), comb their hair and, if necessary, change their clothes.
8.) Children are little treasures and he would like to see them playing the part. Minimize all noise. At the time of his arrival, eliminate all noise of the washer, dryer or vacuum. Try to encourage the children to be quiet.

9.) Be happy to see him. Free him with a warm smile and show sincerity in your desire to please him. Listen to him.
10.) You may have a dozen important things to tell him, but the moment of his arrival is not the time. Let him talk first — remember, his topics of conversation are more important than yours.

11.) Make the evening his. Never complain if he comes home late or goes out to dinner, or other places of entertainment without you. Instead, try to understand his world of strain and pressure and his very real need to be at home and relax.

12.) Your goal: Try to make sure your home is a place of peace, order and tranquility where you husband can renew himself in body and spirit.
13.) Don’t greet him with complaints and problems.

14.) Don’t complain if he’s late home for dinner or even if he stays out all night. Count this as minor compared to what he might have gone through that day.

15.) Make him comfortable. Have him lean back in a comfortable chair or have him lie down in the bedroom. Have a cool or warm drink ready for him.
16.) Arrange his pillow and offer to take off his shoes. Speak in a low, soothing and pleasant voice.

17.) Don’t ask him questions about his actions or question his judgment of integrity. Remember, he is the master of the house and as such will always exercise his will with fairness and truthfulness. You have no right to question him.

18.) A good wife always knows her place.

You're clueless in more ways than you can even imagine. The good thing for you is that you're too ignorant to realize how dumb you be, "ignorance truly is bliss"

You can't read between the lines, I (we) wouldn't trade our lives for anything, and you're so fucking dense you don't understand levity

Here's one of life's lessons I'll teach you; self deprecating humor is a sign of happiness and self-confidence, something that evidently flies right over your head.

Try to remember that next time you want to engage an intellectually superior life form.

Those 50's commercials would make the always offended crowd's heads explode

And not one gay couple to be found, how did those people sleep at night?

My mom would tell me stories (she grew up in the 50's) that they had 1 tv in the house and they watched whatever my grandpa wanted to watch.

60-70 years later, I live in a house with 6 friggin tv's and yet there are many nites where i cannot get control of the tv and ACTUALLY listen to a show until the kids go to bed. And the crappy part is i usually pass out an hour later!!
