She said "don't get me anything."But I think that is code for "surprise me." Hmm. I was told I should send real flowers to her - even in another country - and not just post pics of flowers on her facebook page. Happy Valentines Day everyone. r ------------------

Ray,Don't fall for it man! When you ask your wife "what's wrong?"-and she says "nothing"-that is the code word for "all hell is about to break loose!". It is the same with gifts. If she told you she does not want you to give her a Valentine gift-that too is a code for "you had better get me a damn big box of candy and 2 doz. roses!" This year will be # 25 for my wife and I so I learned (or was trained) to master these codes and respond appropriately! If you don't-may God be with you my friend! Happy Valentines Day to all of you as well. Ted [This message has been edited by Ted Todd (edited 02-14-2013).] IP: Logged |

I bought Connie an ASUS Nexus 7 tablet so she could continue with her "Words with Friends" games without wearing her glasses. She was playing on her little phone.I also got fitted yesterday for hearing aids. Connie told me to tell the audiologist that I had "terminal hearing loss". If I didn't get hearing aids immediately, she was going to kill me. Funny, she told me I had "terminal sleep apnea" a couple of years ago and had better get a CPAP machine. I got one and lived! She's a medical miracle worker! IP: Logged |

Just do what I did for my prior two wives:The first one got an electric rug cleaner on valentine's day (a really expensive one). The second received a food processor, so she could prepare less fattening foods and be able to pay closer attention to her weight. I'm thinking of buying the third wife an oil change kit so she can maintain my truck on Sunday afternoons while I nap. IP: Logged |

I appreciate all the advice.I still feel new at this, having been in between marriages for a number of years after the acquaintance wife. r ------------------

Ray, Flower her with flowers, sweeten her with candy (chocolates) and compliment her incessantly. Makes for a longer and happier life. Don't be afraid to spoil the heck out of her on special occasions. IP: Logged |

Ray,My wife sent me to the doctor and told me to get some of those little white pills that would help me get an erection. I returned home a few hours later and handed her a bottle of diet pills. I think you know how this story ends. Ted IP: Logged |
