This lesson follows on from yesterday, which if I learnt earlier in life perhaps would have avoided all the misery and expense and misery and cost of ‘uncoupling’ with wife #1. But then, I wouldn’t have wife #2 and I would be sad. Also, keeping this wife happy is relatively easy. In fact, it’s really bloody easy because all I have to do is listen, support, encourage and not tell her what to do when she comes at me with a problem. I just get to sit back and be thought a hero. Unless it’s something like, “I’ve got a flat tyre” or “Why won’t my computer <insert random weirdness here?”. Easy-fucking-peasy.
Bringing cups of tea at the exact right moment also helps.
