Why Men Marry Bitches by Argov Sherry

(Fast forward a day and a half.) Sunday night, Faith
comes bouncing in with a tan, the smel of coconut oil,
and a gorgeous lei around her neck. “Aloha!”
Suddenly, there was a complete role reversal. “Why
didn’t you cal ? I was worried sick!” Then came a
lecture about being more considerate. Faith listened
while munching on Hawaiian Mauna Loa nuts. Then
she responded, “I don’t understand why you are giving
me such a hard time. Didn’t I bring you back some
nuts? Besides, if you total up the hours you’ve stayed
out late drinking in the past year, it wouldn’t even be a
fraction of the hours I was gone.” Then she pranced
upstairs to unpack. Thomas never forgot to cal Faith
again. He went out half as often, came in at a decent
hour, and even bought her a fancy cel phone so they
could always reach each other.
RELATIONSHIP PRINCIPLE 45
When a man doesn’t call, a bunch of scenarios
will typically run through a woman’s mind.
Similarly, his imagination will run wild when he
doesn’t hear from you.
If you can’t afford a trip to Hawaii and don’t know
any flight attendants, there is another, far less
expensive alternative to deal with the “partner rol s in
just before dawn” dilemma. There is a new invention
that is sold at Home Depot or any hardware store
commonly referred to as a dead bolt. (When used
once in very cold temperatures, it has a 99 percent
effectiveness rate.)
When a man is coming in late or he doesn’t cal ,
he’s in control. Some even play up the party-boy
facade: “Oh, man, I am so hung over. We had so
many mai tais last night.” He probably had beer nuts,
a stolen green olive from the bar, and one light beer.
“If I stay out al night drinking, wil she leave tread
marks in the carpet from pacing back and forth?” So
he’l act like he’s a beer-drinking pig…and damn
proud of it. Why? Because when he knows someone
is waiting, worried and upset, he feels cared about.
It’s the same feeling you get when he sends roses, a
limo, and tickets to the theater.
Even teenage boys do this with their mothers.
Stevie, age thirteen, said, “If I know my mommy is
going to yel at me, I may as wel stay out at the
arcade even later, and have another soda pop. If you
cal while you are out, you know you are going to get
yel ed at anyway. So why spoil al the fun? You may as
wel just get yel ed at once when you get home,
instead of getting yel ed at twice.”
On the other hand, if he comes home and you
aren’t even there for his grand entrance, it’s no fun
anymore. “Where is she? I didn’t get my adrenaline
kick. Wait, she doesn’t care where I am or where I’ve
been. Why isn’t she upset?” I’ve even heard some
men come right out and say, “I stay out late because it
makes my girlfriend appreciate me more.” (Her
reaction reassures him she cares.)
As common as the “drinking late” scenario is the
“working late” scenario. Brett was dating Andrea for a
short while. He cal ed and said he was thinking of
canceling because of a grueling day at the office.
