Marriage wisdom from Mel and Elaine!
Mel: Since we’ve been married for over 50 years, Elaine, maybe we should share some of the things we’ve learned about staying together…
Elaine: Well, every marriage has its up and downs, but the real key is to listen to each other.
Mel: Like she said, men. You just need to become mind-readers! We’ll show you what we mean…If Elaine says, “Oh Mel, you're so manly!”
Elaine: That means, “You need to shave and take a shower.”
Mel: If she says, “This kitchen is so inconvenient…”
Mel: If she says, “This kitchen is so inconvenient…”
Elaine: What I really mean is, “I want a new house.”
Mel: If Elaine says, “I want new curtains.”
Mel: If Elaine says, “I want new curtains.”
Elaine: Oh, oh, oh! That one means, “I want new curtains and I also want new carpet and new furniture!"
Mel: If she says, “You have to learn to communicate.”
Mel: If she says, “You have to learn to communicate.”
Elaine: That means, “You just need to agree with me.”
Mel: OK men, let’s review. If your wife says ‘Yes’ to something.
Elaine: She really means, ‘No.’
Mel: And if your wife says, ‘No.’
Elaine: She really means, ‘No.’
Mel: And if your wife says, ‘Maybe’
Mel: And if your wife says, ‘No.’
Elaine: She really means, ‘No.’
Mel: And if your wife says, ‘Maybe’
Elaine: She really means, ‘No’. It’s so easy!
Mel: I hope that was helpful for everyone!
Elaine: I’m sure it was.
