Ask Lucy: Practical Advice for the Modern Man

[jpcavin]

Antidepressents work when the person to whom the drugs are prescribed realizes that there is a problem that needs a prescription to be treated and agrees to take said medication. Without such self realization, there is an abundance of conflict.

As I said before, I will not risk my career on domestic violence. I will simply leave the house when I reach my limit of tolerance. She is aware of that, as I recently told her I would leave if things continued on the current path.

We were speaking in generalities. You didn't say your wife was sick and stubborn.

I think he was immature and handled it wrong. And she was wrong for posting it on Reddit.
As far as the particulars about their relationship, not enough information is given.
Generally speaking.....
Women are not programmed to perform simply because a man conveys a desire to have sex. Women need to feel wanted and not just sexually. Did he only pay attention to her when he wanted sex? We don't know the answer to that question. Did she fall out of love with him or does she feel unloved and unappreciated?
Most men that focus on making a woman happy don't have these problems. I'm not talking about the man that just does things to avoid making the woman angry. I'm talking about the man that goes out of his way to please his partner and to show her how much she means to him and how special she is each and every single day. Any man that goes that extra mile shouldn't have any problem in the bedroom.
She could also be having an affair. That would be another explanation for her lack of interest. But then again, why did she lose interest? Too many unknown variables.

I'm only pointing out what the man may be doing wrong because he is the one complaining.

What would our friend burrocrat do if he came across some dieseling?

He should probably let the clutch out as soon as the ignition is turned off or step on the gas and get the hell out of dodge. If he lets it go on too long, something is gonna get damaged.

He should have took notes of what he did when his wife gave it up, and did more of that

one time i had a car like that, she was easy to fire up but no matter how i turned the key would never quit, just kept shuddering and shaking and knocking.

now if i met a gal like that, i would definately be spending less time posting on tsptalk. and i wouldn't sell it either.

Dear Lucy,

I have a number of questions I have pondered for sometime now. Perhaps you can add your unique insight.
1. Why is there a light in the fridge, but not in the freezer?
2. Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, " I thing I'll squeeze these dangly things here and drink whatever comes out?"
3. If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests?
4. Do illiterate people get the full effect of Alphabet Soup?
5. Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle?
Any insight you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

I'm sure google can answer most of your questions. You should try it sometime.

here, i'll take a crack at it since lucy maybe should be out on, uhhh, medical leave, uhhh, probably for a few days.

1. how often do you go to the fridge in the middle of the night for a drink of milk? that's what lights are for. and how often do you go to the freezer in the middle of the night to take out a package of ground beef? that's what lists are for.
2. any guy that ever lived. you can't fool me. i know what those are and what those things are for.
3. that's just nuts.
4. when your belly is full, who cares what supper said?
5. because it is supposed to come out and be glue, otherwise it would be called a brick.

this one's on the house, but i bet the next one will cost you, almost as much as this one is gonna cost me.

Funny how it's always the nut cases that think everyone else is off their rocker.

There isn't a thing wrong with me, it's everybody else. Sometimes I feel like a nut, sometimes I don't.

A man's charm can only gain a woman's interest...it's his integrity, sincerity and consistency that keeps her with him.

And some times the type of car, home location, size of yacht and bank account. But then the woman would have no integrity or sincerity.

Take a look in the mirror and ask yourself what kind of person you and your lifestyle are attracting.

JTH, You forgot these two and I think it is a real fashion no-no.

6) No black knee socks with shorts. Actually no knee socks at all.

7) No sandals shall be worn with any kind of knee sock especially black.

So I stopped a Taco Bell today for a quick bite to eat and was reminded of this post...Kid comes in, I estimate 18 to 21, wearing tan shorts, just below the knee high white socks and black sandals. Obviously, he was alone...and probably will be for a long time to come...:nuts:

hey lucy, what is the modern man supposed to do in this situation?

so this modern man (mm) is liking this gal (mary), but she always gets pissed off about the littlest things, to the point of rage sometimes. and the mm can't figure out why because he is trying to be a nice mm but it always goes wrong. and no matter what he tries mary is never happy and yells at him.

so during a big ole fight (like the 3rd one that day) mm just stops and shakes his head and looks at her and says 'mary.' and mary takes one hand off her hips and pokes her finger in mm's face and shouts 'don't you mary me!'

what is mm supposed to do?

p.s. and i think we all know he should never try to correct her spelling and say 'is that with one r or two?' because that is never going to work out well.

Sounds like MM is a masochist and Mary is a sadomasochist....maybe they should go get couple's counseling...or move on. :laugh: :laugh: :toung:
