But here’s what I do know
Spare yourself the grief. Knowing that your anniversary, monthsary, Valentine’s Day, and yes even Christmas (to some degree) are all made up holidays invented by Hallmark, is no excuse. Spend for the flowers. Buy dinner.
And oh, if you have to tell her to lose weight, take my word for it and don’t! If nothing else, you will thank me for that one piece of advice. It is alright for Oprah to do it, not you the significant other. Trust me.
But what if she is not into Oprah?
There is a more tactful way to achieve your goal. And by tactful, I mean deceitful. Yes, we, men, must employ every tool in our arsenal.
Here’s what you do, you get her to meet with her old chums. Girlfriends she’s known since high school. As sure as snowbirds fly south for the winter, they’ll be the ones who will do the dirty work for you. And after they’ve spared no hyperboles in describing her flab, you get to play the understanding, above-it-all, ultra-supportive partner.
And by the way
It’s “fairness” not “equality” that women want. The feminazis are just too stupid to recognize the fine distinction between the two terms. I’m all for fairness. Fair is fair. But equality? What? Do we now start installing urinals in women’s comfort rooms? Men and women are different. Live with it.
It is also nice to add (though out of your current context) that the world was not meant to be fair. People have the concept, and people have to work at it. But we shouldn't expect it.
ReplyDeleteEspecially in the internet.
Look at it this way: if everything was equal the big bang never happened. The universe will not exist.
ReplyDeleteand WHEN do you think it is the time for a girl to be told that she needs to lose weight? :P most girls don't need to be told about something they already know, unless they go around naked all the time, and not notice that clothes no longer fit. that or the old delusional excuse that all fabrics shrink after 6 months of wash and wear. :)) most of us don't feel the necessity to lose weight UNTIL we meet a high school friend who's never earned a pound since the last JS Prom. with that vision, words need not be told. ;) -KL
ReplyDeleteYou ask very good questions KL. You should meet my SO one of these days. But no, she's lost a weight na. Back to sexiness, yehey!
ReplyDeleteGood for you!!! Cheers!
