Wife out till 3;30 in the morning

[Coach]

Rob,

GREAT POST, as always. You are in a ZONE lately!

I hope JTJ reads carefully and applies.

I loved this:

- Do you have ticket?
"Why are you asking so many questions? Why do you need to concern yourself with any of these details?? Stop being so nosey!"

, and would always thrown in a "and it's very unattractive." Works EXTREMELY well with men, but it does also work with women. It's a very powerful word.

I'm just following your example PDT ;-)

as for using "unattractive" when talking to his wife,
it works better on women than it does on men,
women know that for most men, physical attraction is primary, telling her she's unattractive when she acts crappy would work wonders, I know it does - I've used it a few times myself ;-)

adding it to the playbook.
