Ask any married couple and they are going to tell you that there are big differences between men and women. Some of those differences are easy to see and others may fly under the radar. In the end, however, the differences show up at the most unexpected times.
That fact is illustrated in the funniest way in the following joke. It involves a woman who is distraught after going out with her husband for an evening. She writes it all down in her diary and, the more she writes, the worse it gets. Just wait till you see the end!
Wife’s Diary:
Tonight, I thought Tom was acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a nice restaurant for dinner. I was shopping with my friends all day long; and I was a little late for our date.
Conversation wasn’t flowing, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late; but he made no comment on it. So I suggested that we go somewhere quiet so we could talk. He agreed, but he didn’t say much. I asked him what was wrong; He said, ‘Nothing.’ I asked him if it was my fault that he was upset.
He said he wasn’t upset, that it had nothing to do with me, and not to worry about it. On the way home, I told him that I loved him. He smiled slightly, and kept driving. I can’t explain his behavior I don’t know why he didn’t say, ‘I love you, too.’
When we got home, I felt as if I had lost him completely, as if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore. He just sat there quietly, and watched TV. He continued to seem distant and absent. Finally, with silence all around us, I decided to go to bed. About 15 minutes later, he came to bed. But I still felt that he was distracted, and his thoughts were somewhere else.
He fell asleep – I cried. I don’t know what to do. I’m almost sure that his thoughts are with someone else.
My life is a disaster.

Boat won’t start, can’t figure out why.
