Marital Strife

Yes my wife and I are having issues. I need you guys to help her understand something. I try to be a good spouse and help her clean. But she says that cleaning out the fridge is not the same as cleaning the house.

What is wrong with this woman????>>>

Is this just a funny for late Tuesday night, or are issues real, and deeper than the fridge?>>>

Depending on what was in the fridge.... (j/k)>>>

And whether that bit of green was going between two slices of bread with a little mayo on the side, or getting removed with some strong bleach, rubber gloves, and a scubbing sponge...

One shouldn't cry over spilt milk, but it does stink up a fridge pretty bad if you don't take care of it quickly.

Oh wait. You weren't storing the fish bait in there, where you? :S ;) :laugh:>>>

Back home when I was a kid we used nice fresh maggotts as fish bait instead of worms. You'd buy a pint in a clean green container from the bait shop for a few pennies. My mum always got skeeved out when I put them in the fridge 'til the morning.................never understood why...>>>

cleaning out the fridge, one popsicle at a time or one beer at a time is much different, and for you to have to do that for her....its almost saintly and borders on being a martyr.>>>

Our trash man comes on Wednesday mornings so I clean out the fridge every Tuesday night.

Around my house, Tuesdays are called "Green & Fuzzy Night". As I am cleaning out the fridge, if it is not green and fuzzy, that is what is for dinner!>>>

mike..... I think everyone got it but you :laugh:>>>

I got the joke Twill. I was just checking to see if there was something deeper.>>>

Well Mike, it all started w/ some comments made to my MIL. Rather than sit and back and take it, I let them all know, that I do indeed help clean :dry:>>>

To keep this going awhile longer . What would you think is the number one betrayal in a marriage. The one that does the most and lasting damage. I have seen it many times in new relationships. It is humiliating the other spouse in public . That is the beginning of the end if it isn't delt with. It ruins dignity in the individual and destroys the relationship. If your brave enough ask your spouse if you humiliate them and how it makes them feel about you. It may save a marriage A short story

A man was sitting on the edge of the bed, observing his wife, looking at herself in the mirror. Since her birthday was not far off he asked what she'd like to have for her Birthday. 'I'd like to be six again', she replied, still looking in the mirror. On the morning of her Birthday, he arose early, made her a nice bigbowl of Lucky Charms, and then took her to Six Flags theme park. What a day! He put her on every ride in the park; the Death Slide, the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Monster Roller Coaster, everything there was. Five hours later they staggered out of the theme par Her head was reeling and her stomach felt upside down. He then took her to a McDonald's where he ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fries and a chocolate shake. Then it was off to a movie, popcorn, a soda pop, and her favorite candy, M&M's. What a fabulous adventure! Finally she wobbled home with her husband and collapsed into bed exhausted. He leaned over his wife with a big smile and lovingly asked, 'Well Dear, what was it like being six again?'

Her eyes slowly opened and her expression suddenlychanged. 'I meant my dress size, you retard!!!

The moral of the story: Even when a man is listening, he is gonna get it wrong! :laugh: :laugh: ;) ;)>>>

Good story Chuck. I love those Lucky Charms! A fella could get rich if he just sold the marshmallows. Yellow Moons, Green Hearts, etc. etc.>>>

Oh Twill, love to comment but ..........just get myself in trouble. >>>

Terry...........Green & Fuzzy is Wednesday in my house. I'm not alone. Thank You. PC>>>

Practice this...yes dear, yes dear. Then, in the mornings, she can do what she wants to do and then in the afternoons, you can do what she wants you to do! very simple really!>>>
