One of the strangest pop icons of relationship bliss came out of the seventies. Two cherubic mates held hands naked every day on the cartoon page of the newspaper stating to all who could stomach it, “Love Is Never Having To Say You're Sorry”. If you are wondering why we never see those two love birds anymore it is because they are long since divorced. That is just my guess but I will stand by it. If they truly believed that they never had to say, “Sorry, you are right and I am so wrong”, then divorce was inevitable.
It is not enough to say you are sorry when you are wrong. You need to say you are sorry even when you are right. If you really want this relationship to work you need to say that you are sorry while the knife is still poking out of your chest. You will know in your heart whether you were at fault or not, and you probably were. Either way, if you make her happy you make yourself happy
Yeah, my guess is, that "love is..." guy is currently pushing 300 lbs with hair growing from his teeth. He's living with his third wife who keeps him bankrupt with binge shopping from QVC and donations to TV evangelists. Yet every morning he starts the day with "I'm sorry dear" and he doesn't stop until the lights go out because he will never have the chance to go back and take it on the chin for the nicely rounded naked girl he loved way back in the seventies.
Oh, and she's still hot and remarried to the Class of '73, Short wave radio club Captain, who grew up to appreciate a good thing and reminds her of it everyday.
