Things To Think About 2

Complaint : Karen's husband Roy made her dinner one time and hasn't
                  cooked since. She can't understand why. What can she do ?



Statements made by Karen both at home and around others.


     1. " The gravy tastes like glue. I can't eat that!"
     2. " I guess your mom never taught you to cook!"
     3. " You seriously want me to eat this?"
     4. " I don't think I'm hungry anymore."
     5. " I think Roy could burn water!"
     6. " Did you even put any real effort into this?"
     7. " It was so bad...even the dog wouldn't eat it!"
     8. " I need to get you a cooking for dummies book."



What do you think? Would you be excited to cook for Karen again ???

Overseas, one can always identify an American couple by their tendency to disparage their spouse! My late wife would ask, "Then why are you still married?"

At first glance this seems a pointless exercise Pam, but on second read I think I understand where your going, I do know seemingly healthy people that constantly put spouses and family down, even when it’s brought to their attention, they will deny ever saying such things, and become paranoid, absolute fruitcakes, I personally could not live in such an environment, cheers David
