Best of the year. Seitse Likes This.

Seitse, even in 2015 it's still a lady's prerogative to change her mind;

It's 2015. There are no ladies anymore. Just tramps.

Except for my mom and my sister, of course.

Well if she weren't "she" might have been better talked about in another of your recent threads.

One of the major causes of less than, dysfunctional marriages is the joint failure to identify and share core values.
