Few and far between...

So on my day off, as I watch the Red Sox lose the third game in a row (ARRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!), I was surfing and headed to WebMD. That's where I came across "11 Don't-Tell-the-Wife Secrets All Men Keep." It got me interested since I am just over a month away from getting married myself.

This article is great and true for us men. My personal favorite is:


Secret #11: Give us an inch and we'll give you a lifetime
I was on a trip to Mexico, standing on a beach, waxing my surfboard and admiring the glistening 10-foot waves, when I decided to marry the woman who is now my wife. Sure, this was three years before I got around to popping the question. But that was when I knew.
Why? Because she'd let me go on vacation alone. Hell, she made me go. This is the most important thing a man never told you: If you let us be dumb guys, if you embrace our stupid poker night, if you encourage us to go surfing -- by ourselves -- our silly little hearts, with their manly warts and all, will embrace you forever for it.
And that's the truth.


Not too many women know how to let their men go out and have a good time without them. I'm lucky enough to have landed one of the few, but I know PLENTY of women in relationships that don't follow this simple rule, hell I use to be involved with one of them. It's not because we don't love you, it's because all of us guys NEED alone time...or GUY time. The sooner ALL women realize this the better ALL relationships will be.

And please (any women who read this) don't take this blog to mean us guys don't do anything wrong. This is just a simple rule that makes everyine happier.

On a side note: Why is it that us guys get so tangled up in how our sports team does? For something we have no control over, it seems to have plenty of control over us? Red Sox BLOW another one...
