Lookin' back, on the track, for a little green CHAT...

KBLY's super sound of the 70s weekend just keeps on coming with this little ditty that reached up to #21 in May of 1970... the George Baker Selection, Little Green Bag.

Mornin' all.

I'm hungry. Let's get a taco.

We met in high school! I am of no help in that department,

While it is true there are plenty of fish in the sea, they don't all swim in the same water...what kind of man do you want?

 I want a man who is happy with himself and respectful to others.

Good morning, Chatters!

Are you happy with yourself, honey-pie? That's a good first step.

Dh and I only differ when it comes to figuring out how to fix things. We figure out the complete opposite ways and when one fails we try the others. lol

We don't really argue anymore.  We had a couple of wild ones the first few months we were married then he revealed that he's just a guy and guy's always argue to win, regardless of who they're arguing with or what it's about.  Since then I've learned to just state my opinion or desire and if he disagrees with me I drop the subject.  He almost always admits later on that I was right.  It saves his ego and keeps me from getting my feelings hurt. 

I met mine the old fashioned way....

at a bar.

:p

Agree with KG on that. 

Oooh a pair of Lillies! One more, and we'll have a bouquet ;)

heh.  a pair of lillies.  it's like chat poker :-D

Christ, we argued for the entire first two years of our marriage...but man, the makin' up made up for it...

We have never had a full blown scream fest. We just bicker and the make up and move on not looking back. We remind me of my grandparents :D

 Wow, I am impressed.  It usually takes a few years to figure that out.  Like.......about 50 of them!

Yes :)

I think I've just been exposed to too much AskMen type crap lately, so I think my perspective is being skewed a little bit again.

 D only yells at the animals or general curses aimed at nobody.  He's never yelled at me.  I, however, have yelled at him a couple times back before he revealed his compulsion for arguing.  Now if he's being an assrag I usually just glare at him and ignore him for a while.  Probably still not the most mature response, but I'm working on it.  :)

I met G at work.  Not really something I would recommend because of potential awkwardness if things go south, but it worked out really well for us!

We don't really fight much at all, I think we are both rather relaxed about a lot of stuff to really fight.  If anything, I'll get worked up over something, he's way too chill. 

And if he does get upset, he just gets quiet and withdrawn, which is very frustrating when I need to yell at him for something.  :)  But again, in the nearly 5 years we've been together, we haven't had many fights to that level....maybe 2?

Hehehe..........that's what I do now.  Glare.  Silence. He gets the message.  We don't fight.  We discuss later, when he sees the glare is gone.......   :)
