Seeking advice from Men

Posted: Sep 29, 2009 Tue 09:32 pm     Views: 243    Interacts: 16

Dear John,

I hope you can help me. The other day, I set off for work leaving my husband in the house watching TV. My car stalled and then it broke down about a mile down the road and I had to walk back to get my husband's help. When I got home, I couldn't believe my eyes. He was in our bedroom with the neighbor's daughter!

I am 32, my husband is 34, and the neighbor's daughter is 19. We have been married for ten years. When I confronted him, he broke down and admitted that they had been having an affair for the past six months. He won't go to counseling and I'm afraid I am a wreck and need advice urgently. Can you please help?

Sincerely, Sheila


Dear Sheila,

A car stalling after being driven a short distance can be caused by a variety of faults with the engine. Start by checking that there is no debris in the fuel line. If it is clear, check the vacuum pipes and hoses on the intake manifold and also check all grounding wires. If none of these approaches solves the problem, it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty, causing low delivery pressure to the injectors.

I hope this helps,

Dave

Well, since Dave too belongs to the same species as the complainant lady's hubby... he understands the 'delicate' situation and the future only too well. Hence the advice... to keep the car in shipshape.

I wonder whats going with Sheila, she is writing to John and Dave is answering instead.

By the way, for men their car is definitely more important than either the wife or the mistress. So Dave's answer is good in his own perspective.

Mard mar kar bhoot ban jata hai.
Aurat mar kar be churail hi rehti hai.

What makes you believe we are all so mean to be delighted
:(? We definitely feel for the poor lady. What she must've been thru when her car broke down in the middle of nowhere and the way she had to walk back all the way on top of it!

leenah

They are not. See it just takes a 19 year old neighbour to crack that tough nut :P.

Thanx again. Though I have a strong reason to believe that it was Sheila's and Dave's comeback. I was hardly required to contribute anything.

Oh you never know! Things had definitely been dicey and tricky and required some elimination of possibilities lately ;)

the never ending story ....
Posted by leenah on Wednesday September 30, 2009 03:15 am
nice come back though delirium :)
I hope it wasn't 'eliminating all possibilities' that kept you busy for so long! :p

Reminds me of 'men are from mars, women are from venus', or better still 'why do women always need more shoes'.
No wonder it saddens me again :(. Why in the world are men such a tough nut to crack? :|
Posted by mariposa on Wednesday September 30, 2009 01:36 am
Well well well, no wonder all the men are so delighted.

not trying to be negative here but ... if men started thinking like women, then who is who? :)

Tahir !!! your take on this one please !!!
Posted by Delirium on Tuesday September 29, 2009 11:55 pm
bhs

hmmm...why ? Thinking aloud...Should make world a better place ? Or ease things out for men atleast ;) ? Better to have consensus on most things or having conflicting perspectives is more productive ?

Fouz

Or a smart technician perhaps ?

tahir

I would really like Dr. Sohail's take on this one :) He would definitely come up with some interesting observations , experiences, analysis and conclusions with all his insights.
Posted by tahir on Tuesday September 29, 2009 11:26 pm
If Sheila were to visit Dr So-Hail up in Kanda, she would speak of her car and not about her husband's infidelity!

Wiring fault, can't you see?
Posted by Fouz on Tuesday September 29, 2009 11:21 pm
She should get a competent and handsome driver.

Masla solved.

:)

if they think alike ... wait ... why? lol
Posted by Delirium on Tuesday September 29, 2009 09:46 pm
Who knows ? I particularly like the way Dave painstaking and earnestly explains and successively eliminates all possibilities. Hope it really helps Shiela deal with it.

If only men and women could think alike :)
Posted by bhs75 on Tuesday September 29, 2009 09:37 pm
I guess Dave is having the same relationship !!!
