[ARCHIVED THREAD] - An email from my wife (under 40, BTW)

Posted: 2/6/2006 9:51:18 AM EDT

As I grow in age, I value women who are over 40 most of all. Here are just
a few reasons why:

A woman over 40 will not lay next to you in bed and ask,"What are you
thinking?" She doesn't care what you think.

If a woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit
around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And, it's usually
something more interesting.

A woman over 40 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she
is what she is, what she wants and from whom. Few women past the age of
40 give a damn what you might think about her or what she's doing.

Women over 40 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with
you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if
you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get
away with it.

Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what
it's like to be unappreciated.

A woman over 40 has the self-assurance to introduce you to her women
friends. A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend
because she doesn't trust the guy with other women. Women over 40 couldn't
care less if you're attracted to her friends because she knows her friends won't betray her.

Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a
woman over 40. They always know.

A woman over 40 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not
true of younger women or drag queens.
Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than
her younger counterpart.

Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if
you are a jerk if you are acting like one! You don't ever have to wonder
where you stand with her.

Yes, we praise women over 40 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately,
It's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed hot woman of
40+, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of
himself with some 18-year-old waitress.

I know, I'm mostly kidding. My title says it's an email from my wife and my stale attempt at a joke was to ask if "snopes" can confirm that it indeed was sent by my wife to me.

The comments in red are my thoughts or actual statements my "Baby" has made to me.
(In case you can't tell, I'm hooked!)

a few reasons why:

A woman over 40 will not lay next to you in bed and ask,"What are you

"Can we do that again?"

If a woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit
around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And, it's usually
something more interesting.
"I know you want to watch the game & we have to get home;(an hours drive) how about I tune it in on sirrus?"

A woman over 40 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she

How true is this!

A woman over 40 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not
true of younger women or drag queens.
Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than
her younger counterpart.

AMEN to that!

Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if
you are a jerk if you are acting like one! You don't ever have to wonder
where you stand with her.

"Now, Was that nice?"

I agree with most of this.(I'm not bald & I don't wear yellow pants.) Besides, I'm all over "making a fool of myself with 18 year old waitress's." I've found my "Baby," more of a woman than I've ever known! (Who incidently is "39 & holding!"

)

Yes, I'm a very lucky(and grateflul) man.
