It is a strange thing, but true. Most men who have to talk to a woman for more than ten minutes are bored to death.
Watch a party given for the married crowd. Within five minutes the men are together at one end of the room.
Or watch a married couple having dinner together. Often they are as quiet as fish. Only once in a while do you see a married couple talking and laughing together.
Is this a serious matter? Yes, it is . Boredom can make a person feel as worn out and useless as an old shoe.
who is to blame ? Both may be, but the chances are that the husband is more to blame. He gets out every day and should bring hone a few ideas along with the bacon.
Many women say that when they talk their husbands don't listen. The surest way for a men to make his wife a bore is to pay no attention when she speaks.
Sometimes a man says that his wife won't listen to him. Well, sir, just what do you tell her? Anything other than your troubles?
Do you want to cure a boring wife ? Give her one good laugh a day. Surely you can find one funny story to take home. Then she will try to find something funny in her day to tell you.
Does she talk about the children too much? Try picking out an interesting bit of news in the paper. Ask what she thinks. Talk with her about what you will do when the children are grown up. Plan together for those days when you will not have to work.
Take an interest in some of the things your wife likes. Ask about her hobby , or help her to get one. A good way to keep the couple from being bored is to share a hobby.
So why not help your wife to be popular ? Tell her something about the men who will be at the party. She ought to know that Sam Brown keeps stamps and that Joe Smith likes horses. Then she will know what to talk about. A better time will be had by all.
I know a plain old lady who really works at finding interesting things to talk about. Before dinner parties, she reads up on things of interest to the men she will meet. She is as popular as a beauty queen, and has even helped her husband to get a better job.
So do try to save your wife from being a bore. By doing so, you may become a more interesting man yourself. And brother, what a break that will be for her!
