Woman: My kids are out of control... My job's being cut...and my husband's driving me crazy! Irving: Here! Google "parenting tactics"! Google "budgeting techniques"! Google "relationship strategies"! Google "Stress-reduction tips"! There are 10,000,000 solutions to every problem right here!! Cathy: Oh, you poor thing! I can't believe what you're going through! You must be so overwhelmed! Woman: Thanks! You made me feel so much better! Irving: She didn't fix ANYTHING!! Cathy: Sometimes we need the internet. Sometimes we just need the net.

Aw the classic “man trying to fix the problem rather then let the women vent”

What problem solvers don’t realize is that the person venting will find her own solutions if she’s allowed to vent and talk it all out.

True that. Sometimes people don’t want to know what to do, they just want people to know that they have a lot to do.

My wife and Irving would get along just fine. If I am not feeling well and let her know (I try not to tell her any more) she immediately looks up my symptoms on the net and lets me know what is probably causing it along with steps I should take to feel better. Unfortunately, in most cases I already know. No sympathy which is what I really need. Hmm, seems backwards. If I need sympathy I come here on the net where many of you provide it with a few words. Thank you all for that.
I hope no one has any issues that are preventing them from enjoying this day.

That’s what therapists are for…if you don’t have a compassionate friend or spouse…we’re here.
