Men want a marriage and women want guarantees - knowing men these days, it’s the least women can do to protect themselves.

I got the following email after a 2 week break from a 'I don't want to talk to you ever!’ kind of conversation from my girlfriend to which I have added my interpretation in brackets.


Rules for the boyfriend (fiend maybe?!)!!!


Rule 1: Never go to bed with an unresolved issue (Say she's right!)

Rule 2: Stick to the issue at hand. (Don't talk about her, agree to what she says)

Rule 3: Never use personal attacks. (Jus shut up!)

Rule 4: No shouting, throwing things or crying (Make her understand that men are drama queens too, we choke too!)

Rule 5: No logging off or hanging up or throwing a fit. (Hell hath no fury than a woman’s scorn, so I realized when my girlfriend honked outside my house at 2 am to ensure I didn’t leave her side until the issue was resolved)

Rule 6: Notwithstanding anything mentioned in Rule 1, an overnight break can be taken on mutual agreement. (She might dump you!).

Rule 7: In case if the fight is getting from bad to worse, then things are to be conveyed in a different way, a sober way.(Don't you EVER talk back.)

Rule 8: In case if one passes some inappropriate statement then, he/she can apologise then and there, the other one doesn’t hold on to it, will let it slide.(IF she says something out of line, don’t you dare bring it up EVER, if you have done it, God save you!)

Rule 9: One is allowed to hug between fights.(Completely surrender and use it wisely).

Rule 10: The boyfriend needs to follow all the above rules always! (Aye aye ma’am, do I have a choice?!)
