World in a spin

My world has been in a bit of a spin of late and its not been due to the chicken pox (thank you every much, and yes, it does itch quite badly). Allow me, without going into details to let you know how to deal with the female of the species (this one is for the few male readers that I may have left after this post):

1. Do NOT "test" them with ideas that your family wealth may be of any importance to them. If they are educated and earning twice as much as you, chances are, they dont give a damn about the fancy chandelier at your mummy's place.
2. Not all women are gold-diggers. If you happen to chance upon one, do NOT ask her to marry you.
3. Try to use general world-accepted rules of etiquette in dealings with her family (watch "Meet the Parents" for a pointer on what NOT to do).
4. Keep your word. If you promised to get her flowers and chocolates for her birthday- show up with them on said birthday!

For now I think these should suffice for most of the men I know. Try to keep these 4 points in mind and hopefully you might even keep a woman happy (though thats a feat no man has been able to achieve yet, Romeo killed himself trying).
