I was in the middle of getting rid of my old magazines when I decided to re-read almost all articles before I said good-bye to them. Then I struck to this one funny-yet-pretty-romantic ‘fight’ I love between Lisa Kogan, the lovable writer-at-large of O, The Oprah Magazine, and spouse Johannes (I quoted the said dialogue from Lisa Kogan Tells All column of O’s February 2007 issue):

* Notes:

• Johannes (J)
• Lisa (L)
• Julia is their little daughter
• if you watched Titanic, then you know who John Jacob Astor is

J: What are you reading about?
L: Ida and Isidor Straus. They were an amazing couple! Instead of getting into the lifeboat, she decided to die with her husband on the Titanic. Of course, if Julia were grown, I’d do the same for you.
J: What do you mean?
L: What do you mean, what do I mean?
J: You’re not getting in the lifeboat?
L: No, I love you too much to let you drown all by yourself.
J: But I won’t be by myself—I think they were playing poker and getting drunk.
L: So you’re saying that you’d rather play poker with John Jacob Astor than cuddle with me?
J: That’s not what I’d be doing, because if you’re not getting your ass into that lifeboat, then I am. We are not leaving an empty seat.
L: Oh, you’re getting into that boat over my dead body.
J: Where the hell is the Tylenol?
L: Try the bathroom…you know, the place with the ocean blue toilet water.
J: You mean like the ocean you want both of us to sink to the bottom of?

Do you notice how true what people say, that we women take emotion side the most and men mostly prioritize their common sense?

Now go listen to Celine Dion’s My Heart Will Go On and think again about whether or not you want your husband to sink with Titanic

Me? I’m truly in a dilemma
