Mine called me a cow once, when I called him a donkey. (Not because I'm fat, I'm not.... he was just finding something to call me back)

Apparently, you dont call a Moroccan man a donkey. And now he knows that you NEVER call an American woman a cow :lol:

:lol: My husband told me in arabic how to say "You have a cute son" to his sister, or so I thought. He actually made me say "Your son is a donkey". I felt like I was in that scene from My Big Fat Greek Wedding. :bonk:

so when is the op gonna get one of these?

If my husband looked like any of them, then he'd have room to talk. :whistle:

"True freedom and the end of suffering is living in such a way as if you had completely chosen whatever you feel or experience at this moment. This inner alignment with Now is the end of suffering. Is suffering really necessary? Yes and no. If you had not suffered as you have, there would be no depth to you as a human being, no humility, no compassion. You would not be reading this now. Suffering cracks open the shell of ego, and then comes a point when it has served its purpose. Suffering is necessary until you realize it is unnecessary." Eckhart Tolle

Perhaps Charles is offering us financial aid to help us to be the perfect model wives. I'm game!
