Buy a dog. Taking the dog for a walk is a great excuse for departing the home in the event of a row or if you are in need of a pint!0

Even better is that our mutt is her guide dog, so if I take him walkies she can't follow...RESULT!PeterGage said:Buy a dog. Taking the dog for a walk is a great excuse for departing the home in the event of a row or if you are in need of a pint!

My advice would be to accept that even with the best and most accurate argument in the world you will never convince her that you are right about something. If a fight starts just summon up a large smelly fart and that will shut her up.
It's my advice: that doesn't mean that I've ever done it or that it would work. It's just a new idea that I've just thought of that I fancy giving a go one day. It's about as silly and confusing as marriage, women and life are anyway, so why not?0 -

Loving some of this macho, jingoistic clap trap on here! Let the missus have a read, should be interesting.
Just don't argue fella, it gets you nowhere and can cause irreparable damage! Talk things through, even with a touch of sarcasm if necessary, but it sure beats the hell out of a lose/lose argument.0 -
Bazjonster is under the thumb. Probably had to get permission to post that....

The secret ? Marry the right girl, after 54 years my favourite place in the World is anywhere that she is. We have survived loads of tiffs ( she stabbed me with a fork in the first month ), losing our son to leukaemia, being hard up a few times, but we have always pulled together when it mattered. Work hard at your marriage, the rewards are wonderful, best of luck.0

Thanks everyone - I had an amazing day and CAFC was mentioned in the speech. Well the wife as I call her now did spend Valentine's Day with me at the Valley a couple of seasons ago and it was her idea even though she doesn't understand football. To me that told me I had a keeper. I shall try to use some of the wisdom imparted on here! Cheers Lifers!!

She doesn't understand football but she's a keeper - bit insulting to Ben Hamer I felt.GreenWithEnvy said:Thanks everyone - I had an amazing day and CAFC was mentioned in the speech.

This remains the best piece of advice for any relationship. Quality.Charlton Charlie said:Have a hobby that is absolutely nothing to do with her (as well as going to football)
Don't forget your mates - you need to go out for beers regularly
Buy a dishwasher if you can afford one
Buy a pair of sunglasses or get very, very good at having a quick glance around you when the sun is out...
Have a great day.0 -
