As a writer, you have to keep your mind and eyes wide open so as not to miss an opportunity to write a story and as you know, the source of my inspiration comes from the things I spot when I’m out and about. I had one of those moments and it made me giggle. Let me set the scene, the sun is shining and I see two girls wearing clothes that leave little to the imagination; denim shorts that show perhaps a little too much cheek and strutting their sexy stuff in front of a man walking with his missis…what’s a fella to do?
After spotting one of these girls in particular my eyes swiftly turned to look at the predictable reaction of his missis, why not look at the husband first? Well that would be boring, I mean you just know that any red-blooded male wouldn’t have the strength to look anywhere else even the blue sun filled sky would seem invisible to any male at this point. My goodness, she bore a whole in him so deep with a glare that screamed out without saying a word, “Don’t even think about looking if you know what’s good for you”!
Did she really think that he didn’t notice this girl? She did and so did I! He has probably become a master of expertly seeing things out of the corner of his eye. It’s what men do, anything to stop the grief that will follow. The back turned in the marital bed (Cold) and one less sausage than is usual on his dinner plate but one extra for the family pooch who is licking his lips with glee knowing his master is in the dog house!
What a carry on and waste of her energy! People will look, that is a fact; we have eyes for a reason and I’m sure if the shoe was on the other foot she would be having a gander at some hot bloke if the chance presented itself, it’s what we all do; standard practice if you have blood running through your veins. These are just some of the things an insecure woman would do, maybe she is insecure for a reason only she knows, perhaps she sees it as rude and disrespectful or maybe she’s having an ‘emotional’ day? We do have them and some things will bother us more one day than another.
So calm down, the truth is it was only a fleeting glance; personally I’d be wondering what’s wrong with him if he didn’t look! Maybe this will change conventional thinking but in my opinion the negative methods used by women to get their own back are out of date and quite honestly useless, unless, he’s taken things a step further; that’s another blog altogether. I would rather do the following…
Don’t scrimp on his dinner portions
Put him before the dog
Face him in bed; the only things his eyes are looking at now are yours
I’m not one to burn my bra as many of you know but I do want an easy drama free life and whilst there’s a no money back guarantee with my methods you will gain something else that is far more valuable…your sanity!
