Sorry, I have been planting strawberry's on my face book farm-ville thing a ma jig..........
Women, now there is a subject that I know.................. a...................... well............ here is the best answer I can think up for now...
Even though you may not agree with this..... always tell them that they are absolutely correct in whatever they say or do............ but even then you are gonna get caught because they will accuse you of something and by saying they are right...... you are wrong and have admitted to something that you may not have done....... but you probably did it anyway, right?
Confusion is the key word in this game... you have to be slick... you have to be quick and you have to have a pocket with some hundred dollar bills in it... flowers also help... and tell them you will take them shopping... tell them you love them... smile a lot.... stay out of arms reach.... watch out for things that are thrown... but in the end... it makes absolutely no difference what you say or do cause your gonna get blamed for whatever it is....... your gonna take the heat for whatever happened....... and remember this....... you will never, ever be able to answer their question to their satisfaction, so just do the best you can and put your hands in front of your face.
Never get physical with a woman... even if they get physical with you.... the solution to that is run... very fast and away from the gun cabinet.... try to get the car keys if you can and hide them for a while... have a safe house you can go to for a while.... I built a 40'X40" air conditioned garage with a pool table, big screen TV.... a full bath and a big refrigerator.... me and 'Lucy' go out there if need be.... I eventually had to move all my "man" stuff out there... deer heads, turkeys, motorcycles, boat... tools... punching bag... my guns are locked in a cabinet and I have the key... although I do have an intercom and the doors do lock from the inside. It is a place to run to fast if needed...
Never leave the property or she can get you for desertion... although, if it gets that bad... I have no advise at that point.... most women I have known over the years are much easier to live with than to pay them not to live with.... course I am a pretty good judge of character and I only married two (one twice cause I really did love her but what was more important........ she loved me.... she is also a good judge of character.
)
I have also found that if you don't talk back it sometimes will just go away... whatever she is accusing you of or whatever you did or didn't do...... it really makes no difference.... I have always felt it is easier to: "ask for forgiveness rather than permission"...
The less you talk the better off you will be in the long run.
So as I have said about many other subjects on here........ the rule of thumb related to women and the one thing to always remember............... there are no rules of thumb and anyone that says they have a woman figured out........... well, they are mistaken and that is all I have to say about that.
One other thing.................... if it is a certain time of the month.... reverse everything I have said and go to the garage for 48 to 72 hours.... and take the dog with you.
I would have voted for Hillary Clinton because at least every 28 days we would have gotten 3 or 4 days off.
"After thought"
This subject is way too complicated to solve... it is frankly, unsolvable...
It basically involves hormones, emotions, age and character and these are so fluctuating that a solution or answer to your question Jim... is unattainable... however, most women can answer it... just ask.
