Women Don't Want Men to FIX IT!
Except when they do.
When they tell you a problem, they don't want you to fix it - they just want you to listen.
Except when the problem is plumbing or electrical or mechanical - then they want you to fix it.
Or, NOT fix it, but call somebody who can.
And if they're angry, they want you to be kind and understanding and loving.
Unless they want you to get angry, too!
But don't try to fix it. Unless they want you to.
And the rules are that they're not allowed to tell you when they want you to listen, or to get angry, or to fix it.
You just have to know.
And, if you should be so lucky to figure out what they want, the rules will change.
Fortunately, Mrs CP and I have come to an understanding.
I don't have a clue what she wants me to do when she presents me with a challenge.
So I listen.
Then I ask - do you want me to do anything about this, or just listen?
Usually, she'll tell me what she wants.
Except when she doesn't.
And that's all I got to say about that.
