No seriously........yes....I am in the doghouse again but I need to know whether I should push forward on what is good solid arguing ground (rare for me), or head to the florist and plan a strategic retreat.

I am thinking victory is not worth the price......but I have never

won an argument before :lol:

And if you do win, be careful. It's probably a trick!

In the end, flowers are cheap compared to the alternative...

Never buy them flowers to say you're sorry. Everytime they receive them from then on they associate it with you doing something wrong. Do a little housework instead, therefore associating you doing housework with something wrong so you don't have to do any housework ever again. Good in theory. You just wouldn't want it to backfire. :-P

Only when they arer clearly wrong, black and white type stuff. 99% of the time however it is better to just shut up and do the housework.:-)

Sometimes a man's got to stand his ground - right is right. But given the birthday fiasco, the ground you stand on may be not be as solid as you think.

Why spoil a perfect record? :lookaround:

Seriously, Never let her know that you may have won, better to lose the Battle and win the War.

Is it time for another weekend Spa trip? You know the one, where she is pampered and waited on hand and foot making her feel like an absolute Queen? You paying a King's ransom of course!:surprised:

Damn weminfolk... always have to make life so difficult. I say cut your losses and live to fight another day.

I agree with Bill, no flowers as it is just an admission of guilt.

Whatever you do, don't say the 's' word, & as long as you are forgiven without saying sorry, I consider that a win.

But really, they have a lot of hand (ie sex, ummm, yeah that's enough), & if you're married well remember what Eddie Murphy said when he was still at his peak in "Raw" :

"She will take half of all your sh@t & you can't do anything; HALF"

Remember, risks vs rewards Prez.

Look forward to your reply

Yes he is....this thread should get interesting in a few days.

No flowers!!! Never ever when they are mad at you.

Good luck.

Prez, haven't you yet learned the most important phrase in the history of mankind?

"Yes, dear."

Anything she says, answer with "Yes, dear." Doesn't matter if you heard her or not. If you've got headphones on and you see her mouth moving, as soon as her lips stop moving, you respond with, "Yes, dear." Don't even need to take the headphones off. She becomes posessed and starts speaking in tounges, at every pause, just say, "Yes, dear." Simple as that. No more arguments.

Say it with me,

"Yes, dear."

"Sorry" is not in my wife's vocabulary. She does not lose arguments. If I make her feel like she lost in any way, she'll make me pay for it dearly, and she holds grudges for a long time.

That being the case, knowing I'm going to have to eat crap eventually, I usually go for broke in the beginning and try to piss her off as much as possible.

She knows by now what I'm doing, which of course makes her even more angry. :)

Buying her things or sending her to the spa has never earned me the slightest bit of grace with her. Personally doting on her is the only thing that works. That, and doing more house work!

My advice is rather than flowers or sending her to the spa, you should take her out for a night on the town, without the kids in tow.

Like nothing ever happened?

The eye of the storm??

Stepford Wives?????

Be afraid, Prez, be very afraid :lookaround:

What is that high- pitched music I hear in the background?!?............

Glad things are better.

When the wife argues with me unless I dead-on know I'm in the wrong I don't back down, I find some common ground and if that fails, I just ignore her. It always seems like it pisses her off more but sooner or later she gets sick of being ignored. My wife is a stubborn square head (swede), almost as stubborn as me.

OR

Buy her something nice and sexy (Wicked Weasel) then as someone else mentioned rough animal sex. A couple of good orgasms shuts em up.

This thread would not be applicable to me since I never argue with anyone. I simply say "yes, you're right, of course you're right" and then look down and shake my head with a condescending frown.

Then I turn and walk away and mutter to myself "what a focking moron".

use the argument that you are standing up for your beliefs and will not wilt in the summer heat...she will enjoy your passionate responses and even more so the passionate make up sex afterwards....

I am known to put one helluva spin on an argument. Take last week for instance. Wife was mad about my dirty clothes a foot away from the hamper, I spun right around and walked out to the porch with a Rum and cigar.:lookaround:

Rob,

Feel pleased in the knowledge that YOU know YOU won. It doesn't matter that she doesn't know SHE is wrong. I look for the little victories.

Save the flowers for a couple of weeks. But you have to try to not bring up the issue again (during another argument) if you do, then all hell will break loose.

It could be worse Rob,,, You could be married to Ken!
