The Art of Marriage

[SJS]

Saw this in St John’s Church Finchingfield and thought what a wonderful poem, well worth sharing.

 

[Engin]

The Art of Marriage
is: knowing that, as a husband you are always wrong, and not hearing what a wife said when walking away from and mumbling something incoherent entitles a wife to throw a sulk that lasts for days, especially if the husband doesn’t accept he is always wrong.

There are only 4 reasons your missus is mad at you.

Something you've said
Something you've done
Something you've not said
Something you've not done

Something you've said
Something you've done
Something you've not said
Something you've not done

... and something you didn't even know you were about to think about doing

So glad I don’t have to put up with his stuff anymore. It’s expensive to get out, but so worth it.

The art of marriage is to be able to compromise.

You have two ears and one mouth ,use them in that proportion and you wont go far wrong .

I was expecting this to be a second book from Sun Tzu.
"Know your wife and know yourself and you can avoid a hundred battles"
"All marriage is based on deception"
"The greatest marriage is that which requires no battle"

The art of marriage is to be able to compromise.

You should have added " to an extent you never dreamed possible".
