Very clever and humorous tongue in cheek advice on marital bliss.
What really cracked me up was the women getting together to create the ideal man with the result being creating an intellectual woman.
65 years is quite an accomplishment.
Best wishes and thank you for the smile.
Best wishes

You made me smile with your cheeky humour here about how to stay married and keep your spouse happy. I think it would take more than picking up dirty socks to keep me amused, but I loved your style here as you entertained me, love Dolly x

Amusement is not the goal;pacifying is.
Comment from nomi338
As a man married to the same woman for more than 47 years, my big piece of advise is consistency. It is ok to be a slob, forgetful, or a few other types that do not warrant a divorce. Whatever things she accepts, do those things without bragging or adding to them and she will keep you around for no better reason than she is used to you. If you try adding something new, you risk pushing her over the edge and you could risk a divorce. It is not rocket science, jut be consistent.

I think you must be married to an unusual woman and you are smart enough not to mess with it.

Please believe me. It is most times ok to be flawed. No smart woman expects her man to be perfect, she is very content if she can count on him to be consistent.

Comment from Judy Lawless
Sixty-five years! Wow. Congratulations to you. I think this advice isn't something you needed, but some men might appreciate it, Deniz. Thanks for the laugh.
One little typo: So give ground, my brothers, as we all inevitably do, but give it every(ever) so slowly!

Well done.

Comment from giraffmang
Hi there,
this is pretty funny. However, the problem with lots of little latitudes is they all add up in the end and when you look back you discover she's been the clever one all along... lol
Good fun piece

I only offer advice for slowing down the inevitable full surrender.

This was hilarious. You can endure it, indeed. Thank you so much for sharing this. It gave me (and probably others) a good laugh. Best wishes to you.

Thanks! It's always nice to have people laugh when you are trying to make them do just that. I've had plenty of the other kind, and this is much better. :)
Comment from LJbutterfly
Thank you so much for this laugh out loud post. I needed this. I'm married 50 years, and without speaking to you, my husband followed your advice. I guess great minds DO think alike. There are so many humorous lines, but some of my favorite are: Choose carefully what crumb of hope you feed her. It must be sustainable. They had created another woman. I picked up a dirty sock this week. I'll get the other one next week. Good stuff.

Rejoice! You are married to a thoughtful man. It may be his thoughts are not your first choice for him, but fifty years of living with a woman without giving up his man card or his wife shows how much he cares! He loves you as he loves himself; could any expect more? God bless you both! Thanks for laughing and there is no greater reward for attempting to write humor than causing genuine laughter. :)

Sage advice! I've always found the unfinished job a great ploy. It may irritate the good woman, but it does at least make sure she notices her partial success. In this respect, conveying one sock to the laundry basket and leaving the other on the floor might be considered a master stroke.

Always glad to get approval from a fellow sage! Thanks brother!
Comment from Terry Broxson
LOL, As well-intended as your advice is, unfortunately, it will not work. I, too, have had some experience in this field. Once you think you are gaining a bit of ground, they change the rules. Yesterday's sock is no longer important to her, your new job is to figure out what is. Good luck! Terry.

In my experience, the introduction of new rules does not eradicate the need to continue observing the first ones. However, let us not quibble over differences in methods of achieving their goals. Let us instead stand shoulder to shoulder against all their ways of changing us.
