| We just celebrated our sixth anniversary on July 14th, and I came to the realization that I have gained little knowledge or understanding of women. After six years of living under the same roof with my wonderful wife, airing all our little secrets, so many things still remain a mystery!
Here are a few examples: Why can a woman not understand the magnitude of OU winning every football game or the significance of a Game 7 involving the Spurs? What about the incredible entertainment that is Ultimate Fighting? I am not done yet, trust me, the list goes on. Women seem to not know - that a beautiful Sunday afternoon includes NFL football; that doing it yourself (whether you know what you are doing or not) is always the best thing; that I am NEVER lost, and yes I know a shortcut......and I will stop there due to time restrictions.
One last thing my wife may not understand - That she is the most important woman in the world to me, my best friend, always giving me a reason to look forward to every day, the foundation that allows me to stand up a proud, strong, and optimistic person, always knowing what I need whether its a laugh, a word of encouragement, a kick in the rear, or other more private things that I will keep to myself.
Just think without this wonderful woman in my life I would be laying naked on the couch, stuffing my mouth full of twinkies, depressed and unable to face life. Why?...because Texas beat OU, the lousy Mavericks defeated the Spurs in game 7, NFL football has lost its appeal, yes even the awesome sight of one man smashing in another's face and blood squirting everywhere would fail to move me from my seat.
While I may have little understanding of the female species, I do know this. A wonderful woman gives a man perspective, hope, reason, and joy in this life that at times can be so hard. So as six years have past, I look forward to the next 60 years of marital bliss!
Anyway feel free to add some things you think women just don't understand........
