Number 51: How to Keep Your Lover

You really should read through some of the comments on "Dear God: 40 Ways to Keep Your Lover." They’re quite funny. And some have compiled their own lists, which are hysterical, like this one from reader Jill:

Holy Moly! No wonder you are depressed if you try to live up to all these rules and regulations to keep a man happy or to keep him at all.

Here's the first six of my list for men to follow.

1. Wipe the pee off the seat, Pete.


2. If the clothes pile up, wash a load, Toad.


3. If you want a hot meal, cook one, Son.


4. If she ain’t in the mood for sex, leave her alone, Sloan.


5. Don’t pout, Snout.


6. Give her some space, Ace!

I wrote Jill to tell her that I really liked her list and that, when she saw my list for men, she would think I stole her “wipe the pee” one, but that I had come up with it all on my own. I swear!

Then she wrote back to me with #51, which is a classic:"If you snore, I'm going to another room and you should not get pissy and pouty about it -- you're the one with the snore, Albacore!!!"

What do you think, any more we should add to the list???
