WHAT DO MEN WANT?

I, Barnie, read a very interesting story in one of the local dailies this week that I thought was very funny and yet so insightful. In this story a woman who was unhappy with the way her husband was treating her decided to seek the services of a witch docter to find out a way of slowly killing her husband. The witch docter gave the woman this advice, "Take this poison and mix it with the food that you serve him for the next six months. Remember to kiss him often and treat him like a king." This, the witch docter assured her, would make him weaken gradually and kill him eventually. And so excited by this advice the women went and religiously did as she was told. At first her husband was surprised, because they had not been on good terms for a long time. As days turned to weeks and weeks to months she continued doing what she had been told to do and she and her husband started to get close. The man on the other hand started to shower her with a lot of love and affection. Five months later, she realised how happy she was --- her husband had turned into a loving, romantic, thoughtful husband. How could she leave without him? Isn't it amazing what we can do when we are desparate? I wish I had heard this story before,it might just have saved me several hours of counselling. But the crux of the story is this; that witch docter helped this woman scratch where it itched. This is such an important lesson for all you ladies out there to learn as it will save your significant relationship. So what do men want? It is obvious from the above story that men want more than Nivea cream and Roll-on. Men want to be treated with respect. For men, they feel loved when you show them respect the way the woman in the above story did. This respect is demonstrated by how you treat him even when you think he doesn't deserve it. When he comes home late or having forgotten to buy bread, how do you receive him? Who cooks his food or serves him the food after it is cooked? Do you treat him the way you treat his children or do you treat him ROYALLY? You don't have to go to a witchdocter to be taught how to love your man. As a woman it is your responsibilty to learn how to treat your man with respect so that he will feel loved and wanted, for that is what we men want.
