1) if you go into a relationship with the idea that you are going to change the other person then you should not even start. and whatever failure happens is YOUR fault.

there are a 2) and 3), but i'm not going to start a gender war here.

My wife must be a relationship Ninja. We are both still in our first marriage.

I’m not a fixer upper. I’m permanently broken.

She’s not going to change for me either. I accept her. She puts up with me.

Ancient saying: "men marry women expecting them to not change. Women marry men expecting them to change. Ultimately, they are both disappointed".

George Carlin summed it up nicely many years ago: "Women are crazy. They are crazy because men are assholes. And men are assholes because women are crazy."

Changing someone? That’s work, why the hell would you pursue that?

People can change, but they have to want to change. Trying to force someone to change will end in frustration for everyone.

My kid is going to Broad Beach in Malibu today. You know a man named that one.

She's really good. Sometimes, great comedy is observation and explanation. Her explanations are unique and poignant. Very entertaining.

Yeah, they make a lot of the same points. Women and men think differently. I don't know how many times my wife has told me she didn't sleep well because of all the thoughts buzzing around her head, and is amazed how I can be sound asleep within a minute of hitting the pillow.

"Defending the Caveman" hit on a lot of the same points too, especially the part about why it is that we're so different. Men evolved as hunters like Monique said, our gig was to pop up from behind a rock, kill something and drag it home....simple and focused. Women were gatherers and evolved to notice everything all at once and make decisions. It's why they're so good at shopping, according to the Caveman.

There’s a rumor that men are from Mars and women are from Venus. Or, maybe, that’s a book.

The author of this book got his "PhD" out of a cracker jack box. I'd take it with a grain of salt.

A wife says to her husband, “I’m sometimes surprised how little people change.”

The husband says to his wife, “Really? I figured the process must be about the same as big people, apart from the. tiny clothes.”
