Be careful what you wish for Ladies...

In all seriousness, I have three friends whose wives had a thyroid condition called Hashimoto’s Disease.
All three were treated by endocrinologists who tried to re-balance their hormones with supplements.
All three left their husbands without any prior notice or provocation. They had all been married at least 20 years and had stable families with kids. Any of these guys were a better husband than I've ever been.
Two of the three women wound up with a 'girlfriend'.
 
What I dont get is why they pick woman that look like men
 
This idea, that the libido can wander back and forth between genders, Diamond admits, may be threatening and confusing to those with conventional beliefs about sexual orientation.

But when the women she's interviewed explain their feelings, it doesn't sound so wild. Many of them say, for example, they are attracted to the person, and not the gender -- moved by traits like kindness, intelligence, and humor, which could apply to a man or a woman.

Most of all, they long for an emotional connection. And if that comes by way of a female instead of a male, the thrill may override whatever heterosexual orientation they had.

Women operate on a different level than men.....:yesnod:

For them, relationships are more 'cerebral and emotional' while men, it's more 'physical' in nature.

So when 'men' become less 'cerebrally and emotionally' connected to their female partner.....the 'female' looks elsewhere for that 'connection' (another like minded 'thinker/emotion' - a woman).....and their gender becomes 'secondary'.....

Same for men, when the woman becomes less 'physical'...they seek for it elsewhere, they need 'physical'.....not necessarily other 'men', but another 'outlet' that is more 'physical' than 'cerebral/emotional'.....hence 'short term, 'connections'....(prostitutes, etc.)

JMO and I could be totally off base, but it makes 'sense'.....for women it's 'relationships', for men it's 'sex'.....generally speaking.

Yeah, Nixon's choice is not a beauty.....but then again, neither are some men.....:laugh:.....I guess it's more of a 'connection' to the person beneath the skin....:noidea:
 
I agree Preco. We did a marriage seminar in Feb, and it boils down to Men needing the physical and women needing the emotional.

See, that's a "man's" definition of "better" husband....a "woman's" definition of a "better" husband may differ....:yesnod:

Men see the role as "provider/take care of" and women may see it more as "support/partner/friend".....

A man may be a great 'provider' but if he isn't 'connecting' with his spouse on a certain level.....what he's 'providing' just isn't 'enough'......
 
Ow! ow! ow!

(Must look up bookmark of Brazilian cherry moisture-deterrent quality wood.)

Ahh...pain is going away.

And just to prove my point.....

Jerry & diGriz did a 'cerebral/emtional' gesture not too long ago......

My night went great. I got to do "everything" I wanted to do.
She loved my Haiku and felt it communicated how she felt too which I suppose is why we are going on 35 years. Great lovers think alike (OK so Darwin and his wife didn't - whatever).

Since the Fridays coupon doesn't work on Valentines Day we had our favorite Chinese dinner (we're gluten free) and then an old video we hadn't seen (A Prairie Home Companion - we're fans) and a newer video we hadn't seen, Bangkok Dangerous with Nicolis Cage.

The rest of the evening is none of your business

:kiss::marchmellow::ihih:






If someone could please write a poem I can steal for next year I'd be most appreciative.

We spent the day at a forensics tournament (speech and debate) in which our two younger chillens were participating. Our daughter came in 8th out of 38 teams in team policy debate.
Dinner at Steak-N-Shake on the way home and 2 percocet because my entire leg was aching horribly.
