Hey! I know how to do that!!! lol Being stranded on the highway
outside
of
Calgary with 2 adult women and 4 kids (one being an infant) sure makes
a
girl learn quick.. but I will admit to changing into a tight shirt to
get
us
help because EVERYONE passed us, and we did need some help (the spare
was
flat... hey, it wasn't MY van. lol) And you want to know who ended up
stopping after 2 hours??? A woman, then 2 more guys stopped 15 mins
after
her... I thought Albertans were supposed to be friendly? She even
followed
us to the Wal-Mart (on her spare) so we could buy a new tire. Ahhh
summer holidays.

What a nice woman! We have a highway patrol.. the phone number is on
the back of our window registration sticker. Getting stuck on the side
of a highway is so dangerous.

'Kate

Uhh not here in Canada... honestly, that never even crossed my mind. :|

I think that's a little naive, read the news. Even after only 10 years, I
have seen a dramatic increase in the number of violent incidents in Eastern
Ontario. Alberta is no exception.

What would you personally
consider makes a 'good man' all political considerations aside?

A good man is a loving, kind, and considerate father. He stands by his
children and spouse regardless of the ups and downs. He communicates
openly with his wife about the children and works with her as a united
team for the benefit of the family unit. He makes himself available and
takes an interest in the children's interests. He wants to spend time
with them because he genuinely likes them.

As a husband, someone who asks, "How are you doing?" and means it.
Someone who is honest, open, trustworthy and will not betray my
confidences. Someone who sees me as a woman and not just a mother,
housekeeper, or any of the other roles that I take on in life... and one
who cherishes the marriage by doing things that are special to us as a
couple. He would be intelligent and make me laugh but know when it's
time to be serious too. He would not be prone to angry outbursts but be
passionate about life and have a wide range of interests. He must be
able to express himself without being demanding or putting others down.



Why Kate, how interesting, that's the exact man that PROPOSED TO ME on
Saturday.

Can you believe it? We're getting married ))))))

And plenty of women know how to stand beside a flat tyred car looking
helpless and letting a gallant male do the job when they are quite
capable
of changing the wheel themselves.



You never think about the obvious until its pointed out. That very example
is one I have done many times. I can also recall getting calls on the
mobile
to dash over and rescue people by changing tyres. I'm going to have to lie
down and review it all now. Hmm.



When you do that, include that many women haven't been exposed to car
repair.

So how do you explain the fact that a woman can work out what has gone wrong
with a complex piece of engineering, like a sewing machine, in a few
seconds, whilst a man cannot?

I have dated men who didn't know **** about a car either BTW.


But could they do the washing without shrinking your woolly jumper?

Hiya 'Kate! [waving] here I am!

I know, darlin'... but you're so darn far away. If I were there, we'd
have a go at it.


You could always take a year out from your studies to do a bit of travelling
;-)

So I assume that you said yes then.
Was it a romantic bended knee job?
Just curious.
Congratulations!

I can't figure out my sewing machine. When it doesn't work, I take it in to be
repaired ....by a a man.

Damn, that's what I need right about now.. a man to hold me to his chest
for
strength and comfort...

K, I'm buying that ticket to Ireland. lol


In that case I'll pop into the shower before I drive to the airport. Just
home from a hard day on a building site.
You don't mind a muscular chest and powerful biceps do you?

Uh no actually I'm not naive, I study crime in University... watching the
news is not an accurate portrayal of crime.
