Nice work on the subtle coloring there.

Hey no worries, I'll get your mood right up, my best friend found out that his gf had been cheating on him for four months yesterday, you don't even want to imagine how he spent his valentine's day...

Thank you guys for your kind words, you made me happy.

I write comic cards for special occasions myself. Beats buying a something shmaltzy courtesy of Hallmark.

He just thinks my sister isn't capable of looking after herself... He's not as bad about this as he used to be though, he seems to have mellowed a bit, maybe my sister gave him a good talking to

I'm angry on your behalf just reading that...

Though I suppose my outrage stems from me being an eldest sibling... I'm picturing some little punk trying to tell me what to do, not gonna fly

Being married to someone who occasionally takes verbal abuse from a younger sibling, I can understand it. I've never intervened (usually because it occurs when I'm not around), but I most certainly would if things started getting out of hand. Although on DonQuigleone's case, it sounds like the boyfriend was being a bit overprotective. If he's a single child, himself, he may not understand the dynamics that siblings can go through.

I believe he is a single child. I can understand some intervention if I was being genuinely "abusive", however, if you're not fully aware of family dynamics, it's a lot better to "stay out" of any arguments and observe. It's disrespectful to all involved to play "hero". My sister is perfectly capable of looking after herself (at least where I'm concerned).

As a single child, this is exactly what I do. As much as Mrs. E.S. wants me to get involved and take her side when she is quarreling with her younger sister, I'm all "Hell no!" about it and let them duke it out (figuratively speaking) on their own.

When women are fighting, it is best for men to stay out of it. Even if they are fighting over you.

Don't argue with me - I have got alot more experience dealing with issues like that. Most of them are painful.

Should I be so privileged to experience that, I think I'd just sit back and enjoy the show.

Hera · 2012-02-17, 13:32

lmao!! If I were the man, I'd feel so flattered

But... when your female siblings are fighting, as a brother, you SHOULD interfere -- pacify.

Damn you sure have guts to interfere in that instance since it's highly likely that they would BOTH turn on you.

Oh no no, I mean if BOTH were your siblings

Yes, I got that. You still need guts to get in the fight since, as you know, siblings are seen as capable of taking more pain than an outsider.

They won't let you do that, sadly.

I know.

Yeah, instead of "sit back and enjoy the show," you should vanish from the scene

warita · 2012-02-21, 14:35

I have a question for you guys.

How do you feel about the saying "the way to a mens heart is through his stomache"?

Is it still valid these days? I mean, in the past guys were dependant on women to cook for them and even though I am sure pretty much everybody would enjoy a good cooking these days, its not like guys depend on women for food anymore.

Is it a big plus for you, if a girl can cook well? (I love to cook btw).

GDB · 2012-02-21, 14:38

If they can cook well, then personally, yes. It's not like I can't cook, I just don't like to and don't especially find the taste of what I cook to be anything better than mediocre.

Paranoid Android · 2012-02-21, 14:52

If you love eating delicious food then yes. To me I'm kind of like a -meh-. So being able to cook well is not an outstanding attractive trait. I also have male friends who are super addicted to cooking and won't eat anyone's cooking except their own. I think it varies. I also have married friends who eat out every meal and are fine with it. ><"

I can cook, but my ex-gf couldn't; and I thought it was kind of cute. Well except the time she did try to cook and almost murdered me. Good thing I went to the kitchen with her. She put weeks-old spoiled raw meat that had obvious signs of decay and didn't notice it at all.

If that had botulism and I wasn't there, I may have died.

However a girlfriend who has no interest in cooking and doesn't cook even if it's a necessity, IS a big turn-off. I personally like to cook with someone. I have very short attention span in the kitchen and need someone to be there. Of course being a good cook is always a bonus than not being one.

Not true at all

My mom jokingly said, "The way to a man's heart is through his [feeling] hands"

I personally believe men are highly visual creatures :P

PS: I can't even cook for myself
