Titles that would be of interest to the common woman

First, I must say that I just finished reading the book called "The Bitch in the House". One day after finishing it, I was paging through my Glamour magazine when I came across an article entitled "The Seven Levels of Love" with subtitles such as "Infatuation", "Free-fallin'", "Getting Emotionally Naked", "Call it ESP", "Breathing Room", "The Second Fall", and "As Good as it Gets".

Now, I did not bother to read this article, even the first paragraph. Why? Because I was too busy puking on my shoes.

Puh-lease!!!

I cannot remember the last time I felt any of these feelings for my husband of five years. This is not to say that I do not love him or that I want to get a divorce. But, I want to suggest some titles that would be of interest to people like me.

"How To Ignore Your Husband...Just Like He Ignores You."
"How To Get What You Want Without Having to Beg For It."
"What Makes a Man Think He Knows Everything When Actually He Doesn't Even Have a Clue."
"Giving a Man a Clue"
"Saying 'Uh huh, you're right' and Then Going and Doing What You Want To Anyway."
"Making Sure Your Man Doesn't Find Out What You Have Been Up To"

and finally...

"How To Sacrifice Your Need for Justification Without Sacrificing Your Dignity"

(Folks, as I write this, I am not in an angry or even a mildy irritated mood. This particular post is meant to make your nod your heads only...not to worry or fret over MandeJ's current situation. Don't we all feel this way sometimes? Oh come on...even you couples who claim to have never fought about anything...it never crossed your mind that your mate perhaps was clueless about something?)
