    I'm not, really.

    It just irks me to no end that some men expect women to put up with and even excuse their crap.

    You're making my point Sylvia.

    I've got to ask though, what's an example of a one off comment that can squander all one's good will?

    I was thanking him for doing all those nice things for me when he made the comment that he didn't mind as long as I didn't make him mad.

    An example of my making him mad: Doing things that women in his country of origin (Jamaica) would never do, such as contradict him in front of others or make a decision without consulting him.

    I had to restrain myself from telling him that if those things make him mad, he can scratch the north side of his Third World bummy and get glad!

    What was I thinking of when I agreed to marry him?

    Stay cool Syl, you're a strong person. Too bad about the dental pain but it will pass. Tell Jamaica Joe if he doesn't stay mellow you will jerk his conch, and not in a good way!.

    Regards,

    LOL (even though it hurts!) at Gregor.

    Thanks.

    As much as he annoys you Sylvia, he still sounds like an all right guy to be doing all those things for his ex. Right?

    I would do (and have done) the same for him.

    One hot Saturday when he was feeling under the weather (too much white rum), I dropped everything and went to see about him.

    He's a great dad, though. When our daughter was in 3rd grade, he made! an abacus for her. Her teachers were beside themselves.

    I suspect you intimidate him, Sylvia. Some men are intimidated by smart women. He's probably just trying to keep his pride.
