Do you find that the missus always hates everything you choose for her?
If so, then when shopping together always go and find the most expensive items of clothing or shoes or whatever she's looking for. Tell her how much you like them and how good she'll look in them.
I've saved at least 50% off an average trip to the shops
Next time you go shopping with 'er indoors and she tries something on and asks you how it looks, just reply............."Its very YOU!"
Go on..........I dare you.
After getting an ear hole bashing from ex-mrs HAB about shopping I tried something along those lines. e.g. not complaining, going wherever she wanted, and giving supporting comments.
After a little while we went into one of her mates shop. She comments to her, "He's being very good today. He must be after something." So at the next stop ....
We go shopping together, she tells me "Sit there and don't wander off"
was her instructions.
I wasn't really after anything. I just knew that if I behaved like that it would confuse her and wind her up. She didn't pester me to go shopping for ages after that.
How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
