About a year back, I went for a routine blood test and the jolly turkish lady who was taking my blood asked me what I was up to. We had a chat and I told her about a dating website I had set up. Now folded! Her cheery, round face smirked and she was a little perplexed and I saw her head raise and her eyes screw up. Bemusement maybe ?
“Your website is for women who want to meet men. But why ?” she asked. She was genuinely shocked, and at this point I squeezed my eyes as she jabbed the needle into my arm.
I had to ask her why she didn’t seem to approve of my idea. Her shock turned to laughter. “But all mens are miserable !” The words came out of her mouth as if it was the most obvious thing and I thus must be dim to have been unaware of this.
And she said it again with more force, “Miser-aaaable, I know, I have three in my life, my husband, son and grumpy father in law.”
Priceless…..so there you….it made me laugh, so the grass is not greener. But keep inspired ladies, she obviously loved her husband, and the message is sometimes the one you love will wind you up !
