BEST HUSBAND AWARD

to you, Mr. M.

I hereby award you the BEST HUSBAND AWARD

in recognition of your 'behavior above and beyond the call of duty'

.....for all the cups of tea that you DIDN'T make your wife, while she was vomitting from the chemo

.....for all the times you DIDN'T have sex with your wife (this should probably get a separate award lol)

......for all the dirty laundry, wet towels, plates, toenails, newspapers, junk mail that you left all over the house

......for all the times you controlled your wife by witholding money, sex, affection until you got what you wanted

......for your abuse of your wife's son - the same son that you swore you loved to pieces, the same son that you swore that you would raise and cherish and love.

......for every time that you put your wife down

for this and more ---- we award you Mr. M

the BEST HUSBAND AWARD

(now - let's see you guys top this!)

When I was in junior high, we lived for a while in New Jersey and traveled a bit around the northeast which whetted my appetite especially for the fall color. I'm dying to get back there to experience a real autumn.

Hah, PG you have quite a perverse sense of humor! You've got the best of both worlds in ya! WTG!

Thanks for your answer.... I was a bit confused by:

"But if at least one applies....providing "financial support or assistance" doesn't seem to be an issue. The expense is often worth it when it comes to having a little love and understanding from a partner."

I was not sure what you were referring to???

Pianoguy's reference was toward men who will often seek a 2nd or 3rd wife (or companion) after a breakup, death, or divorce has occurred.

If a man is incredibly uncomfortable living alone without a partner...offering money, companionship and support in order to have a new one is secondary. Some people might consider the gesture: "buying somebody's love and trust?"

But let's be honest!

Women aren't the only individuals who need the security of knowing that there's a partner out there who loves and cares about 'em?

Some men need this too.
