dysfunctionally illiterate

November 12, 2011 by D. Gardner Leave a Comment

It’s been a while since I posted, does it really matter, does anyone care.  NO WAY.  well maybe my grandkids will pull this up in 2052 the day after I die just to see what that old senile guy was like when he was less old.

Well I figured out one of my biggest problems, I don’t know how to communicate with people:  Writing or speaking. I Can’t get a decent job, my friends stop communicating with me, and worst of all I thought I was good at communicating.  This also proves I am pretty lame at listening.  Oh my poor wife has had to put up with me all these years, bless her heart.

So after 41 years of living I pull my head out of the proverbial sand and figure I better start praying to overcome yet another weakness.

I now understand the confused look on the interviewer’s faces as they thank me for coming in.  They had no clue what I was talking about.  Most of the time the don’t have the heart to tell me, the half wit, I didn’t get the job.

Remember this is more therapy for me than for anyone to read.  I figure anyone that reads this will be confuse and stop reading the words about now.

I am going to write down some things I have learned.

Most men have no clue what a woman wants, in a man or anything else. Especially young single men, I was once one so I know.  I used to look at girls and if they were thin, tan and blonde, I’d think if I was thin, tan and blond that girl will like me.  I’ve wasted some time trying to be thin, tan and blonde.  However, women could care less if a man was thin, tan and blond.  As I have grown older and lost all hope of being thin, tan and blonde.  I realized all the effort I was putting into futilely trying to hold back the flood gates of the aging process, was not getting me into a better relationship with my wife.  I found some advice online from a woman who did a wonderful job of explaining what women want in terms a dimwitted man like me, who was looking for help could understand.  I am really amazed how much better my relationship is with my wife now that understand a few things.

Maybe I’ll continue this later.
