If you’ve been in a long-term relationship, you know that it can be trying at times. Sometimes, there may even be days when you don’t even feel like trying. However, most people keep on keeping on, and give it everything they’ve got until the end. It’s the nature of humans, to try to make the best of whatever situation we’re in. And nothing deserves our tender loving care more than our marriages or domestic partnerships. If your partner’s life depended on you cooking three hot meals a day and never giving him or her a moment of stress, could you do it? Sure, it’s easy to say we would, but inevitably, we’re human beings and perfection isn’t easily attained. If you can relate to any of this, you’ll love the joke below. This lady’s response to her husband is priceless.
A woman accompanies her husband to the doctor. After the husband’s check-up, the doctor asks the woman if he can have a word with her in his office.
“Certainly Doctor, anything for my husband”, the woman replies.
The doctor says, “Your husband is suffering from a very rare and severe disorder, combined with horrible stress. If you don’t do the following, he will die.”
“Each morning you must fix him a healthy hearty breakfast. You must be pleasant and make sure he is in good humor. For lunch make him a nutritious meal and for dinner prepare an especially nice meal for him. Don’t burden him with any chores, as he is probably had a hard day. Don’t discuss any of your problems with him, it will only make his stress worse.”
The doctor continues to say, “Do all of these things and he should continue to live a happy healthy life for 15 to 20 years.”
The wife takes all this into consideration and exits the doctor’s office.
On the drive home, the husband asked the wife, “What did the doctor have to say to you ?”
She replies, “He said you’re going to die.”
