A Warning to Men: Be Grateful; Be Very Grateful- for the Mature, Loving, Understanding and Reasonable Woman


A Warning to all men with "mature" wives at this most loving time of year.  One man reflects on his 41-year marriage and receives the following carefully reasoned reply:

Older Women Are So Reasonable.

After being married for 41 years, I took a careful look at my wife one day and said, "41 years ago we had a cheap apartment, a cheap car, slepton a sofa bed and watched a 10-inch black and white TV. But I got tosleep every night with a hot 25 year old girl."

Now I have a $1,000,000.00 home, a $45,000.00 car, a nice big bed and an LCD High Defintion TV. But I'm sleeping with a 64 year old woman. It seems to me that you're not holding up your side of things."

My wife is a very reasonable woman. She told me to go out and find a hot 25 year old girl and she would make sure that I would once again be living in a cheap apartment, driving a cheap car, sleeping on a sofa bed
and watching a 10-inch black and white TV.

Aren't older women great? They really know how to solve your mid-life crises.

A Warning to Men as Valentine's Day Approaches

Careful with your answers, Walter!

You'll know that the spark is definitely out of your relationship if your partner answers, "What is your partner's favorite flower?" with a response like the one below.

Walter, and all men, need to remember that celibacy can be an individual choice or it can be "a condition imposed by circumstances."

While attending a Marriage Weekend, Walter and his wife,
Mildred, listened to
the instructor declare, 'It is essential that husbands
and wives know the
things that are important to each other.."

He then addressed the men,
'Can you name and describe your wife's favorite
flower?'

Walter leaned over, touched Mildreds arm gently, and
whispered, 'Gold Medal-All-Purpose, isn't it?'  And thus began Walter's life of celibacy.........

Happy Valentine's Day, Everyone!
