Just, well… Complicated!

They will thank you for it!

Real interesting quotes.
Yes I think every couple knows a few, the one I like … not in the post … is – the couple that plays together stays together! ๐
Arthur Hoppe was a journalist for the San Francisco Chronicle. He wrote an article on the high rate of divorce. He wrote about how easy it now is to get a divorce and rather than working on a relationship, folks took the easy way out. Then he shares a conversation with his wife. He asks her in all their time together had she ever considered divorcing him. Her answer was, “No, but I could have killed you a million times!”
It seems today that the wrong things are easier and it makes the right things seem not worth the effort. This is sad isn’t it dear friend. However I do agree with the last sentence (as far as joking goes lol).
my wife is pissed that I’m at work today….gonna try to head out early and give her a great evening at least.
I’m sorry. It is a hard situation to deal with sometimes, work and family time and esp. time with your partner. Glad you’re going to give her a great evening out! Both of you have fun!

LOL – I like Plato’s quote best!
xx ๐ ๐ xx
Me too, although Einstein’s isn’t bad either lol! ๐ xox
Another awesome post Penny.
Sweet and to the point, especially the photo! ๐
Some of those quotes remind me of others. I won’t say the cruder ones, but:
Money can’t buy happiness, but it sure makes misery easier to live with
I’m a good housekeeper. Whenever I get divorced, I keep the house (Zsa Zsa Gabor)
Some people will leave a mark on this world, others a stain.

Very good ones Alastair, some funny all true! ๐
I know a couple of people with that last one ๐
There with that one! ๐
๐
Absolutely loved this Penny ๐ and that photo too ๐
Thanks Mridula, I think the photo does a good job in summing things up! ๐
Yes it does! ๐
๐
By the way, what you think about my flash fiction?
Heading over there now! ๐
Thanks a lot ๐
I like it! You’re a good writer. I think your flash fiction is well executed. It has a special essence to it that makes it all it’s (your) own. ‘Stands out in the crowd’ sort of thing. Keep writing! ๐
Glad! ๐ this means a lot to me!
I write true words. It is a pleasure to do so. ๐
Nice to have met you ๐
It’s OK to do special things every once in a while, but it’s not good to spoil someone. Keep them guessing or begging.
I didn’t mean that. lol
Yeah you did! ๐
Great reminder. Thanks Penny! ๐
My pleasure, hope you two have been having a relaxing weekend! ๐
Brilliant quotes, but the last one made me laugh in particular, as I only told my husband today to stop trying to annoy me, as I wanted a peaceful life.
I don’t think the words husband and peaceful work well in the same sentence lol!
The Plato quote made me laugh, he was probably right as well.
No doubt about it!
Laughing from this post ~ so true – Mars and Venus we are hugh? ๐
This may be my favorite:
โWomen marry men hoping they will change. Men marry women hoping they will not. So each is inevitably disappointed.โ โ Albert Einstein
Smart guy that Einstein was!!! xo Love ~~
Yeah I think so too! ๐
๐ Oscar Wilde must have dated me!

Very funny post. Complicated as things may be, nothing truly worthwhile ever comes easy – you’ve always got to work at it.
Thanks, I thought the picture was great. Yes you are correct, most wisely spoken. ๐

Have a great weekend, Penny!

AnElephantCant forget a young lady
Who had a trunk and a really cute rump
When she couldn’t change him
She tried to rearrange him
So off he rode with a trumpety trump trump trump trump
Love it! Your poem that is! ๐
