Just read this blog and I have to say I agree with it. Of course, I am not one to hand out advice either. I'm working on marriage #2.

What do you think?

    I wonder if the guys feel the same way though. Would those 16 things make a man happy?

    This is fkg profound and very real. By the way, you of all folks should be able to give advice. After all, in retrospect you know deep down what does and doesn't work. Your experiences can shine a light for others. Just MOO

    I totally agree with #10. Luckily mine still shuts the door, even 14 years later. I don't want to see that. Haha
  • Wish I had read this a few months ago...
  • I love this

    On second thought then...don't break up with her. Call 911 instead.

    I'm only guilty of two of them.

    10 -- I leave the door open.

    2 -- I'm never going to be a looker, but she sees beyond that.

    Psh. Scratch #2 off that list.

    Honestly dude, I think the smooth head and facial hair are working for you.
    If I was gay, I'd hit it!

    Read this earlier today and really liked it. I just have to wonder...HOW does it not occur to you to close the door when pooping? I do it even when no one is here! Always!

    I liked this! I emailed it to my husband :)
    We both do alot of this....which is good but its a nice reminder to do a little extra each day to make each other still feel special and loved.

    If you ask me #10 isn't a deal-breaker. LOL And I disagree with you on #2. I think you are quite handsome! And something about the name roaddog is just sexy! haha

    This is all simple knowledge that everyone knows, but due to the level overall respect that continues to degrade throughout society, these things are overlooked.

    relationships are not difficult when you base them on open communication, respect, honor, and love. And when you are married, holding true to the vows you make.
