Ask Lucy: Practical Advice for the Modern Man

[jpcavin]

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.

Lucy is on vacation. Ask Judy but she's probably pissed off too. Perhaps Ravensfan can Google it for you.

Why Lucy, I did not realize you were PO'd. Hope your wrath is not directed at me. I was just funnin about. Somehow I got the impression you were a fun loving kinda gal that appreciates a little humor. If I have misread you I am sorry!

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

Interesting change to your signature Lucy.

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:

KK - I like that avatar of the Islands.

She's probably at a counselor's seminar in Hawaii or somewhere nice.

Never fear my feathered friend. I direct no wrath at anyone. However, Mr. B's question requires more time and patience than I posses and as you can see by my signature line, my ocean is running low.

You know it! Sipping Mai Tai's and soaking in the rays....and the sights aren't too shabby either.

they don't have that kind of counseling on the internet, do they? and don't you burro me!

Ask Lucy, or have Ravensfan Google it for you.

My advise for MM, take that money you were going to spend for a ring and put a down payment on a shiney new Harley Davidson. In all my years of riding I have never seen a Harley parked in front of a Psychiatrists office. Live free and ride!

Meanwhile, Mary can work on her social skills...

P.S. No charge for the advise. This one's on the house!

now you've gone and done it. dude, we are going to need a bigger dog house.

Naaah...leave Mary for the next schmuck to deal with. Get on that steel horse and ride. The more you ride, the smaller she gets in the rear view mirror. Besides, there are a thousand Mary's who would want to climb on the back of that bike with you...

That's pretty one sided, you haven't heard Mary's side. Which probably explains why I'm the Doctor.

That was one short vacation.

Obviously, my patients can't function without me. Now if I would just find the lock to that dog house.....:laugh:

As a medical professional, I think your signature should be more positive. The current one implies that we modern men are dragging you down. It makes me reluctant to ask for future advice.

I think this is a good example of "mob mentality".
