Shopping with Wife!

I am married for the past 6 years. I've learnt quite a few things about marriage in my time as a married guy.

Learning in a marriage is an on going process for a guy, for girls off course, they come in a completely learned package. Its like they have PhD in marriage, even before getting married. Guys on the other hand are a failure even after celebrating 50 years.

There are some wives who like to take their man along on their shopping expedition. A man is considered a very handy creature during a shopping expedition. He's very useful. He can carry all the bags without complaining. Complaining doesn't help, because the poor guys know that complaining just makes things worse. If a guy complains about time, the wife generally say "shut up or else I will take longer". In such case the poor guy has no option but to shut and at the end he can only be happy that had he complained or interfered, the 4 hour expedition to buy 1 pair of trouser would have lasted at least 6 to 8 hours.

When women try out clothes they generally ask their guys for their opinion. But the opinion doesn't matter, because if you agree with her choice then it remain her choice and her choice as usual is immaculate and her taste is exquisite. However, if you disagree with her choice, then according to her you simply do not have taste or choice. As a matter of fact most men had a very poor sense of taste before their women waltzed into the life of the luckiest guy in the world. It is her who added colours to your life.

Now most important use of a man during shopping is his undeniable duty to pay for the goods at the counter. This is something no man can escape. Or at least I have never come across a legend who has managed to do so. There are some men, who just give their credit cards to their wives and they leave them free to use the credit cards the way they want them. These are brave men.

Btw, it doesn't end there. The lady then tries the same clothes on after coming home and asks for your opinion again. This time you must ensure that your words of praise are same or better than the ones you used in the shopping mall. Any lapse can lead to doubt in the lady's mind and even the slightest doubt can lead to another 6 hours of shopping expedition.
