Proof that men DO remember:
A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband is
not in bed. She puts on her robe and goes downstairs to look for
him.
She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a hot cup
of coffee in front of him.
He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the
wall.
She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip
of his coffee.
'What's the matter, dear?' she whispers as she steps in to
the room, 'Why are you down here at this time of night?
The husband looks up from his coffee, 'It's the 20th
Anniversary of the day we met'.
She can't believe he has remembered and starts to tear up.
The husband continues, 'Do you remember 20 years ago when
we started dating? I was 18 and you were only 16,' he says solemnly.
Once again, the wife is touched to tears thinking that her
husband is so caring and sensitive.
'Yes, I do' she replies.
The husband pauses. The words were not coming easily. 'Do
you remember when your father caught us in the back seat of my car?'
'Yes, I remember' said the wife, lowering herself in to a
chair beside him.
The husband continued. 'Do you remember when he shoved the
shotgun in my face and said, 'Either you marry my daughter or I will
send you to prison for 20 years?'
'I remember that, too' she replied softly.
He wiped another tear from his cheek and said 'I would have
gotten out today.'
