Interesting read ...


Some of my favourite quotes from this book:-

"Love is only the dirty trick played on us to achieve the continuation of the species." 
(W. Somerset Maugham)
"God gave men a penis and a brain but only enough blood to run one at a time."
(Robin Williams)

"You have two choices in life: You can stay single and be miserable or get married and wish you were dead." 
(Bob Hope)


Interesting BUT true facts to share:-

  • It's rare that a man will leave a relationship simply because he's unhappy. He will stay in a relationship simply because he hasn't got a better offer. One night stands can turn into romantic love or long term attachment if he decides that the new woman is worth the agony of leaving his current relationship.
  • Dopamine is the neurotransmitter that affects pleasure and motivation and is often called the "happiness hormone".
  • Brain scans show how being "madly in love" activates the same areas in the brain as addiction to cocaine.
  • Women is to enjoy the fun ride he's offering but don't always believe his stories. (SO TRUE!!!)
  • Men don't think about relationships. Men just want to be fed, loved, played with, or left alone.
  • Men rated women's need for commitment from them as highly undesirable in a casual partner but rated it as very important in a long-term or marriage partner. Even a casual mate who was married rated higher than a single one because the married woman was less likely to want a commitment from him. (Sad fact!!)
  • Regardless of culture, having an unattractive partner decreases a man's social status BUT the opposite situation has little to no impact on a woman's status. (Now you know why when you come across an attractive female with a chubby, fat/ugly partner *winks*
  • Men see sex as sex, whereas women see sex as an expression of love.
  • Common Myths about Cheating: Myth No. 5 - You'll get it right second time around.
  • Every relationship you have is a learning exercise and a stepping-stone to the ideal partner for you.
  • Couples who last have the same or similar core values and beliefs.
  • You will need to kiss a lot of frogs to find your prince or princess. 


I must admit, it dawned upon me that 'men' can be so void of emotions at times unlike women. Whatever it is, enjoying life to the fullest is the biggest compensation of all .. be it you have or don't have a life companion. 


Joke of the day, " A three-year-old was examining his testicles while taking a bath. 'Mom,' he asked, 'are these my brains?' She replied, 'Not yet,'."  ... *lmao*


Enlightening, don't you think?..Ok! Back to my reading ...
