Ohhhhhhh you have so much to learn my dear ........... :-D NEVER try to change his "bad" habits. They're only bad in your opinion -- he likes them just fine or he wouldn't have them at all. Instead, just embrace your Chosen One in all of his original, stock-from-the-factory glory with all the good and bad and in between that makes him him. If you don't try to change him or mold him into your idea of the "perfect husband," then he probably won't try to change you either. Along the same lines, accepting his habits without reproach also means he can't give you a bad time about your "bad" habits either.

All in all, you'll enjoy more peace in your life, better (and more productive) communication, and much less drama and uproar ... and get to sit back and laugh out loud at him when he's a dumb ***. :-D

Thanks for that Doug! Ya made my night even better after a rather productive week in the shop. If you ever get down this way, please let me know -- it'd be an honor to meet you too. I'll take ya for a ride in my hot rod ... but nooo, you can't drive. :-D

No worries on the joke either -- I've probably been called much worse at some point and by at least one here in present company. I've heard many times from more than one man in my life that I "think like a guy" (though I try not to look like one) thanks to my dad's realistic approach with me I guess. For instance, my mom spent 49 years sarcastically asking him if watching football on his only day off "was the only thing we're gonna do today???" ... and that really got old every week ... so I learned early on to pay attention to the rules of the game and grow to like it a lot. 'Rule #7: Men like football -- if you wanna hang out with men then you should too.'

So what I gather is that if you meet a guy who has bad habits and you cant stand his set of bad habits.......you convince him that he needs a chevy. Then after he is in the chevy, then you dust him with your mopar and leave him seeing taillights in the dust and never come back.

Then you find a different guy with a different set of bad habits (since they all have them) that you can actually tolerate and then embrace them and live happily ever after like Fiona and shreck.

As far as thinking like a guy, is football and working on cars really thinking like a guy? Maybe its only associated with thinking like a guy because the majority of people who do it are guys. But in fact its a sign of creativity and a talent for all things mechanical which make the world work...............hooooorahhhh

I cant say I ever watch the whole football games because I am usually making cupcakes and cookies and football dinners but all the cookies and cupcakes get Orange and blue frosting because if you are in my house DENVER BRONCOS all the way baby, win or lose they are my team. :prayer::prayer::prayer: ...even if they totally got their butts kicked last superbowl :angryfir::sleepy3:
