Oh wow! As a man I didn't even see it that way? wow! :eek:
You are so right!
Yes, absolutely hit the nail on the head. Ever notice how we forget the things our wives or girlfriends (not both! Lol! That's another thread for another day! Lol!), say/do that aggrivate us? However, when they're mad at us over something, they can bring up every single thing as accurately as a court transcriptionist can! No, I don't have a solution for that one either. Whoever does will write a book, become every guy's hero, and be a billionaire. Lol!
I had a wife and three Son's before I got in the business, so I can't give advice on what to tell Women you do for a living. However, when I was a broker at Merrill Lynch, I used to go to restaurants/clubs with wholesalers, and brokers who were single every now and then. Here's what one of the guys said with success:
If he didn't want anything to do with a particular female who approached him, he would tell her: "I'm a janitor at _____ High School. We dressed up for a birthday party tonight." After that, he would say, "I sold my pickup truck last week, so I'll buy you a drink for being so nice though." She would either take the drink, or politely turn it down. Even though it was a bold lie, which is pretty shady, he did have enough class to make her feel good about herself as she walked back to her friends.
If he wanted to talk more with one, he would simply tell her, "I'm a Stockbroker." Either she was in, or out.
