I wouldn'tt say they are moribund,I'd say they are rather uncommon..and that makes it better for you and your spouse.

^^ I like the challenge.Does it have to be just 1 symbol?like + all through

Who says marriage can't be enjoyed
To strengthen unions, marriage experts advise couples to "make weekly dates" or "go away on a couple's weekend." Those are great ideas, but let's be realistic: how often can busy couples expect to drop everything and get away? These 11 quick and simple ways to express love let busy couples rekindle romance among the chaos of everyday life.

1. Embrace your past. Assemble a scrapbook together, pull out your wedding video, or write your own personal romance story. Reliving special memories together is a great way to strengthen your bond.

2. Be kids together. Have a pillow fight, challenge each other to a game of hopscotch, or cuddle on the couch and laugh as you watch cartoons.

3. Wrap your mate in love. While your sweetie showers, sneak his towel into the dryer, and as he steps out, wrap him in fluffy warmth. Or use the same idea to warm her feet when she snuggles in bed on a chilly autumn night.

4. Speak the languages of love. Surprise your "amante" (Italian for "lover" with some international sweet talk.

5. Write love notes to each other. Spell it out in his oatmeal with raisins, on her dashboard with yarn, or use lipstick on your bathroom mirror. Compose your own poem, borrow a verse from Song of Songs, or just write "I love you."

6. Turn on the charm. Who says you have to stop flirting once you're married? At your next party, wink at him across a crowded room, or slip your arm around her as you make social small talk. That personal connection amid the crowd is like saying, "This is great, but I'd rather be with you!"

7. Connect online. E-mail your spouse throughout the day, just to say you're thinking of him.

8. Remember the little things. When you step in to help with the day-to-day "drudge" chores—making dinner, bathing the kids—your spouse knows she's appreciated and loved. And completing a chore for your sweetie frees more time and energy for the two of you to enjoy other activities together.

9. Send it snail mail. Take time to write an encouraging note, slap a stamp on it, and mail it. Your spouse will love the surprise—especially since it won't be a credit card bill or junk mail!

10. Celebrate everything. Most couples celebrate the anniversary of their marriage or first date, but how about the anniversary of your engagement, or first kiss? (If you don't remember, make it up!) There have been all kinds of milestones throughout your relationship, so mark each one with flowers, a card, or a romantic interlude.

11. Just say it. Your spouse needs to hear those three simple words daily. Whisper it, sing it, shout it. Say it.

Valiantvaliant: Meanwhile here is my own. Think of a number. Multiply it by 2. Divide it by the number you thought of. Multiply your result by 3. Add 4 to it. Multiply it by 6. Add 4 to it. Find the square root of your result. Let the mods ban me if your answer is not 8.

Well by dividing your chosen no by itself ,you've eliminated the chosen no .so in essence ,ALL you're saying
2x3=6; 6+4=10; 10x6=60; 60+4=64
root of 64 is 8 anyday so there's no choose a no saga in the real sense

Valiantvaliant: its called GAME OVER!

And this is called TWO CAN PLAY THAT GAME

naturalwaves: It could be anyone of them.I just want u to tell me ow u can determine which one.

Well,I thot it's a riddle and most riddles have their answers in the question so

naturalwaves: Here is another one;
Outside a room there are three light switches. Only [b]one [/b]of the 3 switches is connected to a light bulb inside the room.

I figured there lies the answer.

naturalwaves: The question is easy to solve without even carrying a pen but ur calculation is quite impressive for a lady.Keep it up!

What's that supposed to mean Anyway,I'm a maths teacher and expected to explain in steps when teaching.I'm kinda used to it

The wife comes home early & finds her husband in their master bedroom making love to a beautiful, sexy young lady! You unfaithful, disrespectful pig! What are you doing? How dare you do this to me the faithful wife, the mother of your children! I'm leaving this house, I want a divorce!"
The husband replies "Wait, Wait a minute! Before you leave, at least listen to what happened"."It had better be good because it'll be the last thing I hear from you. But make it fast, you unfaithful pig you"So the husband begins to tell his story .

"While driving home this young lady asks for a ride. I saw her so defenceless that I went ahead and allowed her in my car. I noticed that she was very thin, not well dressed and very dirty. She mentioned that she had not eaten for 3 days. With great compassion and hurt, I brought her home and warmed up the enchiladas that I made for you last night that you wouldn't eat because you're afraid you'll put on weight; the poor thing practically devoured them.Since she was very dirty I asked her to take a shower. While she was showering, I noticed her clothes were dirty and full of holes so I threw her clothes away. Since she needed new clothes, I gave her the pair of jeans that you have had for a few years that you can no longer wear because they are too tight on you, I also gave her the blouse that I gave you on our anniversary that you don't wear because I don't have good taste. I gave her the pullover that my sister gave you for Christmas that you will not wear just to bother my sister and I also gave her the boots that you bought at the expensive boutique that you never wore again after you saw your co-worker wearing the same pair.”

The husband continues his story . . ."The young woman was very grateful to me, but as I walked her to the door, she turned around to me with tears in her eyes, and she asked me:"Sir, do you have anything else that your wife does not use?"

Valiantvaliant: For those of you wondering how he did it , its simple.
Think of a number b/w 1 and 10 multiply it by 9, if two digits is ur answer add them together. . . .watch this
1*9 = 9
2*9=18. . . .1+8 =9
3*9=27. . . .2+7=9
4*9=36. . . .3+6=9. . . . .and so on. So since all the answers are 9 then subtracting 5 will always give you 4= d= denmark=kangaroo=orange. The names may vary but this is the most obvious.

Why did you take the fun ouuta the game

Willzkid: I am thinking of a CAT in DOMINICAN REPUBLIC eating a TANGERINE

interesting ,you are part of the 2% of the population whose minds are different enough to think of something else.

naturalwaves: Rchd. Card.If U get it in not more than 3hrs from now.

Switch one is connected to the light bulb

What did you arrive at..

freecocoa: No I'm not.

naturalwaves: U get it correctly,u get a card.so ,try.

what type of card?

This is strange...can you figure it out?



Are you the 2% or 98% of the population?



Follow the instructions! NO PEEKING AHEAD!



* Do the following exercise, guaranteed to raise an eyebrow.



* There's no trick or surprise.



* Just follow these instructions, and answer the questions one at a time and as quickly as you can!


* Again, as quickly as you can but don't advance until

you’ve done each of them ... really.

* Now, scroll down (but not too fast, you might miss something).































Think of a number from 1 to 10



Multiply that number by 9



If the number is a 2-digit number, add the digits together



Now subtract 5



Determine which letter in the alphabet corresponds to the number you ended up with



(example: 1=a, 2=b, 3=c,etc.)




Think of a country that starts with that letter





Remember the last letter of the name of that country





Think of the name of an animal that starts with that letter




Remember the last letter in the name of that animal




Think of the name of a fruit that starts with that letter





































Are you thinking of a Kangaroo in Denmark eating an Orange?

naturalwaves: Lol,wen u get to d room and then sees the bulb on,ow will u be able to say wich of d 3 switches switched on d bulb? Try again.

gerraway jor iono then

dlex21: Show workings

ok o..working
let the 5 digits be a,b,c,d,e
Going by this info

dlex21: A guy 4got his 5 digit password...but has d following details
1. The first digit ȋ̝̊̅ڪ the square of the 2nd
2. The sum of the 2nd and 3rd digits is 10
3. the 4th digit ȋ̝̊̅ڪ the 2nd digit plus 1
4. The sum of the 5th and 3rd digit is 14
5. And finally, the sum of all the digits is 30

a=b²(square of b)
c=10-b(if b+c=10)
d=b+1
e=14-(10-b)----->(from c=10-b)
;e=14-10+b(if you multiply through be -)
e=4+b


Since a+b+c+d+e=30
therefore using the simplification above

b²+b+(10-b)+(b+1)+(4+b)=30

b²+b+10-b+b+1+4+b=30

b²+2b+10+1+4=30
b²+2b+15=30

b²+2b=30-15
b²+2b=15

b²+2b-15=0(quadratic equation)

(b-3)(b+5)=0

b=3 0r -5...we're dealing with +ve nos so -5 is ruled out so b=3

with that knowledge put b=3 back in the info

a=3²=9
b=3
c is 10-3=7
d is 3+1=4
e is 4+3=7
digits are 9,3,7,4,7


hope this is not your assignment o

naturalwaves: Here is another one;
Outside a room there are three light switches. Only one of the 3 switches is connected to a light bulb inside the room.
Each of the three switches can be either 'ON' or 'OFF'.

You are allowed to set each switch the way you want it and then enter the room(note: you can enter the room only once)

Your task is to then determine which switch controls the bulb ??

Switch all 3 on

dlex21: A guy 4got his 5 digit password...but has d following details

God bless you Tope,I guess many people are not seeing this issue from the op's point of view and I reiterate that the guy is just STINGY..Maybe the op didn't portray the situation well enough,didn't use the best example but we should still be able to read between the lines .


@op,did you say he still lives with his parents @35?
A broken relationship they say is better than a broken marriage and no doubt,love is what keeps two people afloat during a stormy marriage,don't settle down out of desperation and fear of societal stigma.

.

.

I cannot profer a solution but I've got some questions to ask
-how old is this friend of yours?
-What is/are her parents reason(s)for making that choice of a man?
-Are they opposed to her settling down with her current man only or every man other than their choice?

Why has Peter turned this poor lady to a baby making factory?He says he loves her so what's holding him back from putting a ring on that finger..nawa o

omg!I'm shocked to say the least. death penalty is too lenient a punishment for this inhumane animal of a woman.

GboyegaD: You need to let your wife know how you feel and stand your ground that on no reason should he drive the car. If he isn't comfortable with your decision, he can as well go back to his parents.

The bolded got me roflmao ..For heavens sake and for the umpteenth time..the brother-in-law in question is his ELDER SISTER'S HUSBAND.English scholars had better find a different word other than brother-in-law to describe that relationship

@op..Your situation is a tight one and I honestly understand your dilemma BUT it's time you stood your ground..It's going to be quite difficult knowing that you're a gentle guy(well,from the way you've been handling the issue).I'd suggest that you have a talk with him,tell him the honest truth about how you feel,speak to him politely and maturely..If he's a reasonable and honorable man,he would oblige your plea to leave your car.It's a bit childish to hide your car key since we are dealing with an adult here.If you'd find the above so difficult then I think you would have to tell your sister to talk to her husband(tho I'm not too comfortable with that personally,as it could infuriate him or even your sister and cause a strain on family ties which I guess you would not like but if you must,it should be the last resort).

Idowuogbo: Tinkyb, u Ok?
