A magazine had a contest about the best definition of a wife. A wife is a person who is your loyal friend and always by your side and ready to help you solve any of your big problems that you would not have if you were single.
Sounds about right if you take out the "always by your side", "loyal friend", and the "ready to help" part
OR "A wife is a person who is your loyal friend and always by your side to cause any big problems that you would not have if you were single."
Yeah, what is a wife exactly??? I've never been married nor do I plan. Witnessing the episodes of friends of past and present has taught me that it is the worst contract a guy could ever sign.
If your theory of marriage is based on episodes of Friends, then you are not ready for marriage! What do you base your work ethic on, the Flintstones? King of Queens?
LOL, ya got me....this is what I get for not wording it correctly the first time around "Witnessing the marriage episodes of my friends past and present..." sure! yea! I base all my life's decisions on TV shows
Close. It's a device that you screw to the bed that forces you to pay someone else to do the housework. Then the device quits functioning in the bed it was screwed to.
It should be a person that loves and supports you, raises the children and keeps the home in order, is selfless in that she will often put her own desires or feelings aside for the betterment of the family. Today she works 50 hrs a week to pay the real estate taxes, daycare and for her BMW payment so they can keep living in that 4300 sq ft McMansion 3/4 cover in vinyl siding on a full 1/4 acre of unusable terrian that goes straight up from the roadway that goats dare not tread. You think she is pulling her own weight, which has increased expondentially since the nuptials, until you get the credit card bills from Lane Bryant. The wife's role has changed, and it is not because we need her to work to keep up with the bills. We choose to live a lifestyle far beyond that of our youth. How many of us grew up in homes over 1700 sq ft? How many of us had 5 TVs to choose from inside our home to watch? Very simply we demand more, which costs more, and the husband alone can not generate enough income to reach such a lifestyle in most instances. People always say the middle class is being taxed out of existence, but who is buying all of these new McMansions for $653,000? The "rich" live well beyond the meger McMansion and the poor mow the McMansion lawn. No, the wife's change in roles has created entire new class of middle class that can afford far more than our father's paystub allowed. The wife is no longer a dependent, she has to generate at elast 40% of her husband's income if she wants it all, and they always want it all.
a wife is someone to make me dinner, wash my clothes, get implants so i can play with them hours on end, clean the bathroom and some one i can beat at the end of the day.........
The enterprising wife is hot enough to open her own porn site, the proceeds of which allow you to do nothing in particular at all for as long as you want, until she gets too fat for the lens or gets wise to the sloth of her chosen partner. At which time, a 50% was once married tax will be placed upon her future business earnings.
Johnny!!! Go show this post to your lovely bride and do a mea culpa, before I show it to mine and she makes me drive to your house so she can beat the snot out of you. In this instance, I might even help her. Even though she wouldn't need any. Spousal abuse is NEVER FUNNY!! Never, ever, ever....... DM
Marriage is whatever you want it to be. If you want to live like a single guy, partying and screwing around, then don't get married and complain about how your wife doesn't enjoy you hanging out at the bar with your buddies all the time. If you don't want to spend all your days with a woman who constantly complains about stuff, all the while demanding everything in the world, then don't marry some self-entitled, spoiled American princess. Bottom line is, know what you want going in and and know what you're getting into, in every sense. I married a really cool girl and we get along amazingly. Good for me, right? We have a great time together, and we don't need to read "How to make your wife/husband happy" lists, or watch Dr. Phil to unscramble each other. There's a ton of miserable married people out there who, unfortunately, tend to be the only ones you hear from. If a guy talks about being happily married, the others in the room call him a (term for girl-hole). I don't give a damn. I've been in a ton of crappy relationships. The only difference was that, rather than marrying them and hoping everything would change for the better, I dumped their a$$es and kept looking. So, what is a wife? Who cares?
I came away from my last marrige with one very important lesson, "The most common misconception people have about communication is that it actually occurs". ....and yes I'm being facetious but there is a grain of truth to it. I tend to agree that it is what you put in to it. I look at it as a partnership. I most definately agree about the comment pertaining to spoiled "American Princess". Outta here!!!!
