Sometimes, dont you just

[Da_elf]

my girlfriend would probably try to kill me if i tried to force her to be a "good housewife" hehe we both do the cleaning and she does the dishes because i do the cooking.

[SteveC]

I think i am going to have to show her that good housewife thing, I keep reading it and it creases me up
I'm desperate to know how she'll react to it, stupid i know, but when you gotta, i'm just too curiosity

It may be some time before i return.

maybe place a few strategically around the house, one in the fridge, one under her pillow, handbag, etc etc. Then deny ever seing it , as she reads/shows it to you, you show complete shock horror at it, then gradually in a very soft manner mention that although it is a tad outdated there are a few worthwhile points in it, damm it she may even come around to it.
The very best of luck

this one's for your SteveC

Anytime my wife steps outta place I quickly refer her to page 15 Issue 10 Vol2 of Housekeeping Monthly Published 1955. That usually takes the wind out of her sails. For the record I am taking the mick.

Cheers,
Tom

Steve I don't think Tom expects you have long to live.

Actually the more I thought about this the more I never want my wife to see it because well I work from home and I cook the meals take care of the kids in the afternoons. If she saw this she may come to expect more. I can only imagine how she would interpret "Be a little gay"...

@Percy - off topic but is she still over there?

I think my mistake was leaving it for her to see after she finished a
12 hour shift at the nursing home. I wont do it again

It's amazing how much pain a teaspoon can inflict when wealded in the right hands, just so unexpected.
i'm also very surprised at how calm she was and that she never said a
word whilst taking retribution.

I thought she was just making a cup of tea for us both. The tea was for
her and the teaspoon (hot) used to stir the tea was for me.

You see, that's what's amazing about our better halfs, their practicality, in one stroke,
not only did she get a nice hot refereshing cup of tea, but also the means
with which to punish me

She never said i was being punished, yet i knew i was. She never told me
to bin the article, but i did. She also never told me to cringe/fawn after her all night, this i also did.

Conclusion

After carefull consideration, I've come to the conclusion that, when I'm
wrong, I'm wrong, when she's wrong, she's right, this is a no win situation
for us chaps

[nvanherpt]

yup. never has been, never will.
