Dr. Laura:
The other evening my husband was doing some landscaping in our yard. I ran out to check it out, and yelled: “Babe, it looks perfect!” Our neighbor, who is in his forties (we’re in our thirties) overheard me and chimed in, saying to my husband “You better record that – she told you it was perfect, and wives don’t say those things!” My husband chuckled and turned to me quietly to say “I don’t think he is happy in his marriage.”
I was shocked and instantly thought of you, Dr. Laura! I am tempted to leave my copy of “The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands” for my neighbor’s wife in their mailbox with a note saying “READ THIS!!” Not that I ever doubted your advice, but it was pretty cool to see the fruits of your wisdom right in front of my face!
