Riddle, What is a neat way of settling an argument with your mate?

Question

Dear "mrd" - lol

Dear "kalt" - I tried that with my first wife. It didn't work.

Dear "Kkings" - I tried that with my second wife. It didn't work either. We agreed to disagree permanently.

Dear Pope - That was a good answer. I wish I could stay out of arguments. (disagreements)

Dear U98, Did you know my third wife. She said I could prove I loved her by not arguing with her divorce attorney.

Doc - That is a good point. but 30 years too late for me. To get any, means to get any of the bananas after she has raided the cupboard.

Dear "nexus" - good advice about humor. I used that with my 4th wife, when she got mad, I would tickle her feet. But toward the end, it made her frisky, and I couldn't cut the mustard. So we agreed to disagree 450 miles apart. That system certainly works when we are young. --

Dear Julian - don't make me cry. I should have said, other than sex, what is a neat way of settling an argument.

Dear Sunman - That was better than my answer. - appreciation is always the key to happiness.

Dear "Chrstia" - I am sorry, but I couldn't get past those "fiery arrows". Made me think of when I pass a kidney stone.

Dear "Heron" - That is what my 5th wife said.

Dear "kcl" good point, I still like kisses.

Please e-mail me for the answer. It may not be a great answer. But, at least it will satisfy your curiosity.

Dear "onelight" and "Sherl" - Wow!

Disclaimer: I was just kidding about all those wives. I have a sweet wife. How do I know she is sweet? Well she puts up with me, that's how I know. - smiles

Note to all you imaginative folks. This question is expiring, so I will post it later with more clues. - or, E-mail me for more clues.

Answer 1

This isn't really a neat way...

My husband and I are both as bull-headed as they come. When we sense an argument coming, we both give each other a chance to state what we view and why. Then we simply agree to disagree and leave it at that.

Answer 2

Proverbs 26:18, 19 says: "Like a madman shooting fiery arrows is a man who deceives his neighbour and says, 'I was only joking!'"

The archaic meaning for the word "deceit" is "to while away the time". That's all it takes. Whose idea is "better" about when the time's up? It's not really, until you're dead. So in order to bluff a time-waster, or time-deadliner, which is pretty much the same thing, just do something kind for a poor person. I bet you will have a better idea of the lie of the land community-wise than if you try to read the path of the birds flying south. Whatever happens, you'll be one step ahead of the game, even if it doesn't seem that way at first.

Answer 3

1) I find a great way to end an argument is to make a joke about something right in the heat of the moment. Once you have the person laughing and smiling every thing is ok.(the key to this is to make sure that the joke will work)

2) offer a solution for the problem

3) give up and say what do you want me to do.

4) get her/him more mad and grab them and start kissing them.

So...... 1 is the best....... 4 is the most fun!!!!!!!!!!( i know)

Answer 4

Start joking about it. Place a bet of 10 kisses on who's right, then go to an impartial source for the answer.

Answer 5

Kiss your mate and express..." I'm glad we communicate, I hear what you're saying...now come over and ' communicate ' with me some more...let's about this other issue later.

Then the later (the next day)...go up to your mate...kiss them again and say. . . " Now, where were we...are we resolved with our disagreement...or is there something else we need to resolve with it ?. . . Then talk, communicate, come to an agreed upon solution or understanding...Then when all is resolved. . . go off and play and kiss some more.
.

Answer 6

unfortunately we are both stubborn.
i have found that if i'm wrong (seldom) i admit that i'm wrong, and the argument is over. same thing applies to him. i'm very lucky in that he will apologize. a lot of men don't seem able to do that.

i don't get angry easily, but if i don't get an apology i can stay angry for days (scorpio). he is quick to anger, but gets over it it just as quickly.

Answer 7

Geesh, how many wives have you had?! LOL. Maybe you could say, "You're my 24th wife already, so let's just end this argument now!"

Answer 8

Just agree. That usually shocks them into speechlessness.

Answer 9

I refuse to have a battle of wits with you because your unarmed, but if you use that you might not get any for a while.

Answer 10

Don't argue in the first place? I'm not good at riddles.
