    :roflmao: QED. "Mard bahadur hote hain". Not me speaking. This is Zakir Khan - stand up comic - who dictated this to me as I started posting my feedback! :D Talk of synchronicity. So 'bahadur' that they can drive women up the wall and as evidenced by your friend's message also bring out the 'worst' in them.

    A certain relative recently had his cataract removed - after months of being scared of getting it done. Friends, relatives and other animals had to be called in to counsel him. As it happened, his bum chum from the US was visiting at that time and offered to be on the site of action with him. Finally he agreed. Said man's wife jumped at the opportunity and got the surgery done before friend could leave for the US. This relative is the kind who loves moping around with sad face whenever he thinks the skies are going to come down or some other tragedy is about to strike. Full on drama. I sometimes wonder how his wife is still around, alive AND relatively sane!!!

    I may be an exception here. When I feel sick I let everyone know it and I take rest. I usually don't take much medicines unless it gets really extreme. My husband and I have really flexible schedules. So I expect him to step in to take charge of the kitchen. I don't expect pampering other than simple food and letting me rest till I feel ok. This is not a rare event as well. I get colds almost once every 2-3 months.

    On the contrary, my husband takes a paracetamol at the slightest sign of trouble and continues with his day as normal. Rarely he lies down in the mornings even when sick. In our 17 years of marriage he must have been "lie down in the morning sick" twice or thrice max.

    I guess I am the one with man sickness in our family :relaxed:.

    And then they say, why are you so cranky and weird on those 5 days :BangHead:

    Coincidentally today my DH was depressed worrying about the weather outside even after coming home. Even after 3 hours he is telling it’s too cold and bad weather. I’m like why worry about it now when you are warm inside!
