    Laddie, you have only just started to learn. As Daz says, better learn to nod and say "Yes Dear"! If she is like my wife that will satisfy her to a point. A warning though as the years go by she will start to get annoyed with it and she will let you know she has figured out what your doing. They hate that!

    Rule one: Don't be looking up pictures of your ex when you have a fiancee.

    Rule two: Don't tell this one, anything about that one. That includes showing them pictures.

    Applications of these two rules could have saved you a lot of grief. More grief than you know, because not only do you have to deal with her looking for a new dress, but she's wondering why you were looking at her myspace in the first place. You're going to pay for that too. Maybe not now, but wait until you have an argument.

    And from now on she's going to be comparing herself to your ex: hair, eyes, voice, walk, clothes, favorite colors -- EVERYTHING! She might not say anything out loud, but she'll be looking for signs from you trying to figure out if you like [...] about her because it reminds you of your ex.

    It's going to take a lot of reassuring to get her back on track. Women like having flowers delivered to their job, btw. Done at irregular times for no apparent reason covers a multitude of (minor) sins.

    When I tried doing this, I tended to get into more trouble, cause my lady thought that I was trying to make up for something. So the first thing she would say after gettign flowers wasn't "Thanks" or "How lovely" but "What did you do now?"

    Women.............................Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rrrrrrrr

    I'll be married 17 years this December. She still hasn't figured out that I can't read minds (and now I have a 13 year old daughter who I am trying to explain this concept to).

    Good Luck!

    Ah yes, you are an unfeeling brute, with no sense at all.
    Wait 'til she realises that you were
    a. looking at ex's web site.
    b. chose her with similar taste.
    (God forbid they have the same color hair or look anything alike...if so, you're doomed!)

    Gee! It's great being single!

    I've always been partial to Al Bundy's adage: "Women...can't live with 'em. THE END!"

    I concur. I hated what I had to go through for my wedding 2 years ago, but I accepted early on that it was out of my hands. The ol' Smile and Nod is the way to go.

    I'm also a strong proponent of Rules One and Two.
