Boring, until THIS doozy!



What is this?! Norwich?!

And you thought they stayed at home until their 30s because of Mamma's cooking.

"What do we want?"
"No Sex!"
"When do we want it?"
"er..."

"I'm looking forward to Mamma's lasagna when I get home."

"No lasagna this week, my little bambino"

OR

"But momma, he's got-a more chunks!"

YOU decide which is more grim.

The bit I liked was "The husbands could find themselves on the sofa".

It's your fucking strike, you go on the bloody sofa.

What you've done there Duds, is forgot the cunningness of women. These women have been married a long time. The men could not give a shite about sex, that stopped long ago. The threat of not being able to sleep in your comfortable bed is a greater one. The women have mentioned sex to grab the headlines here. If they'd said the men have to sleep on the settee, people wouldn't have read it.

The point is, why would they think the men would bother going to the sofa.

T'would be amusing if a lot of these haughty women found themselves out on the street/dumped/cuckolded by their men who proceeded to hook up with women who weren't utter bitches and who knew that in a healthy relationship you never, EVER use sex as a weapon or bargaining tool in any sort of ultimatum.

ah...

Only to get more sex you do

You tricked me.

And he tricked Gaz hehe

It's along the same lines as parents who say to their kids: 'If you do that, I won't love you any more.'

It's enough to make a sane man cleanse the streets of Whitechapel.

I've never heard it called that before.

You shouldn't stay together for kids either-they pick up on the fact that you hate each other and parenting goes down the tubes imo.

I agree with Shin.

*cries*

I also agree with Ace.

I also agree with Ace. I've known people who have done both - couples who are no longer "in love" as such, but are sticking together for the kids and getting along almost as friends or flatmates, which seemed to work, and a couple who seemed to barely be able to talk to each other, but were still living together, which seemed to make all involved pretty miserable.

Staying together for the kids sounds like an easy way to end up resenting your kids to me.

That can work both ways Duds, depending on your partner/support network. I'd rather be unhappy on my own with the chance of finding someone than unhappy with someone I hated though.
