10 Things Divorce Didn't Fix

After being alone for 12 years now, I find there are some things in my life that divorce just didn't fix. 1. I still sleep on the very edge of the bed. 2. I still feel guilty drinking directly from the milk carton. 3. I still put the toilet seat down. 4. I still roll my socks instead of just throwing them into the sock drawer. 5. I stop to ask for directions. 6. When I'm channel surfing, I hesitate for a second on Oprah. 7. When I'm at a party, I offer to help in the kitchen. 8. I wash, I dry. 9. Mine is not to reason why, mine is but to do or die. 10. Girlie magazine? What girlie magazine?

This was back in the days when Oprah was more like Jerry Springer, not giving cars to people who couldn't afford to pay the taxes.

LOL! I've only been divorced 3 years and I don't have any of those habits!

I do miss warm hugs tho.

You obviously weren't trained as well as I was.

I'm still married, (to the happiest woman in the world ;) ) and I don't have any of those habits...

You probably aren't married to an Asian woman, capn. They know how to train their men. And it isn't with treats.
