1). WHAT YOU WANNA EAT? Omg, this question dang near causes divorce instantly because of myriad of responses. Dude says what you want to eat tonight? Females asks what is he in the mood for and dude said he don't care because he is starving. Female cool, we could go to that new Chinese spot on 52nd and Keystone. I hear they got really good orange chicken and noodles. Dude says- Yeah I am cool on that Chinese food, I hear they be substituting dog meat sometimes. Female says oh o.k, what about Chili's 2 for $20 because I love their chips and salsa an appetizer! Again dude says, I don't want that place either, the food is too bland. What else you got? The sad thing about it is, neither really know what they want to eat, unless they are alone, then they suddenly end up at a eating spot with no arguments. I think I just solved problem number 1, lol!
2). Communication Issues. What makes it so easy for our mates to be so loving to co-workers, friends and relatives, but can't talk to you without rolling their eyes and 14 deep breaths and sighs because you asked who left the bathroom light on again? Nothing makes me matter than seeing someone treat a stranger better than their mate. I mean who is gonna be there when you are sick (your boss, co-worker or you girlfriend) to help you. I think this can be a strong factor toward the demise of a relationship. Something happens to couples the longer they stay together. They may feel they have to raise their voices to get their point across, perhaps saying something like " I don't think doing such and such is not a good idea and this is the reason why......Nahhhhh that sounds to much like logic doesn't it. Other couples I see out can't put their phone down long enough to just have a conversation about life with their mate. Texting is so common now, that no one really talks on the phone for long. I saw a man get so irate at his partner for texting during dinner that he got up and went to the restroom and never came back. I can feel dude's pain because, again....if we was at our job and a customer was at our station, would we be texting while they are standing there? What makes it so differntly with our mates? Communication is the life blood of any good relationship, but then again we have a high divorce rate in America sooooooooooooooooooo.....
3). The Back Seat Driver. With all the GPS technology and smart phones out there, why do we need our mate to remind us to apply pressure to the break "NOW" to avoid hitting the car in front of us. Or what about the mate who swears they know the fastest route to said destination. And pleas don't try to back up into the garage with your mate in the car. Heck you can't look out the side view mirror because their big O.J. Simpson looking head is all in the way trying to help guide you in (forget the back up camera that came with your new car). My cousin Tony once told me that its only one person on his drivers license for a reason. I guess the back seat driver ain't never thought of that huh? The ironic thing is the back seat driver usually has a ba-jillion tickets and battle wounds on thier car and yet they know how to help you! Really?????????
Yeah couples fighting is a real situation but sometimes it would behoove the couple, to just stop and say I will never treat anyone better than I treat you. And of course live up to it......
I am Ward......
