I feel that family relationship is always unstable because There may be unreasonable thought differenciation between a husband and a wife, a mother and a child, a father and a mother, a sister and a brother etc....
Who is the person who really starts these conflicts????

  So shekhar I have decided to help you out by sending you some info I found on the e-mail..
  
  Long but usefull
  
  For thousands of years, men have tried to understand the rules when
  dealing with women. Finally, this merit/demerit guide will help you to
  understand just how it works. Remember, in the world of romance, one
  single rule applies: Make the woman happy. Do something she
  likes, and
  you get points. Do something she dislikes and points are
  subtracted. You don't get any points for doing something she expects.
  Sorry, that's the way the game is played.
  
  Here is a guide to the points system:
  Remember +means good points, -means bad points.

  ha ha...you do not need to send condolences for my future husband as by the time I get married I will learn the arts of acting like a really nice obedient wifey type person, that could be an adventure in itself.

  Ha ha.. so U ppl have assumed a lot of things...
  
  Scene: Suburban home, living room. Post-quarrel.
  Wife: You know, I was a fool when I married.
  Husband: Yes, dear. But I was in love and didn't notice.
  ************
  Two women, one from the north and one from the south, are seated next to one another on a plane.
  "Where you flyin' to?" says the southern woman. The northern woman turns up her nose.
  
  "Don't you know you should NEVER end a sentence with a preposition?" The southern woman thinks about this for a second.
  
  "Where you flyin' to, bitch?"
  ***************
  Hus : You remind me of a famous movie star."
  Wife : "Really? Which one?"
  Hus : "Lassie."
  **************
  One Sunday a pastor asked his congregation to consider giving a little extra in the offering plate. He said that whoever gave the most would be able to pick out three hymns.
  After the offering plates were passed, the pastor glanced down and noticed that someone had contributed a $1,000 bill. He was so excited that he immediately shared his joy with his congregation, and said he'd like to personally thank the person who had placed the money in the plate.
  
  A very quiet, elderly, saintly widow shyly raised her hand. The pastor asked her to come to the front. Slowly she made her way to the pastor. He told her how wonderful it was that she gave so much and asked her to pick out three hymns.
  
  Her eyes brightened as she looked over the congregation, pointed to the three handsomest men in the building and said, "I'll take him and him and him."
  ***************
  Enjoy Folks!... marriage is getting commercial too so enjoy while it lasts ;))

  I found this on the net.. it is just kool!
  RULES THAT GUYS WISHED GIRLS KNEW
  
  * If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us.
  
  * Learn to work the toilet seat: if it's up put it down.
  
  * Don't cut your hair. Ever.
  
  * Birthdays, Valentines, and Anniversaries are not quests to see if he can find the perfect present, again!
  
  * If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer you don't want to hear.
  
  * Sometimes, he's not thinking about you. Live with it.
  
  * Don't ask him what he's thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as fishing, the shotgun formation and monster trucks.
  
  * Get rid of your cat. And no, it's not different, it's just like every other cat.
  
  * Dogs are better than ANY cats. Period.
  
  * Sunday 3D Sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.
  
  * Shopping is not a sport.
  
  * Anything you wear is fine. Really.
  
  * You have enough clothes.
  
  * You have too many shoes.
  
  * Crying is blackmail. Use it if you must, but don't expect us to like it.
  
  * Your brother is an idiot, your ex-boyfriend is an idiot and your Dad probably is too.(I luv this one)
  
  * Ask for what you want. Subtle hints don't work.
  
  * No, he doesn't know what day it is. He never will. Mark anniversaries on a calendar.
  
  * Most guys own two to three pairs of shoes; what makes you think we'd be any good at choosing which pair, out of thirty, would look good with your dress?
  
  * Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers.
  
  * A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor, now.
  
  * Your Mom doesn't have to be our best friend.
  
  * Foreign films are best left to foreigners.
  
  * Check your oil.
  
  * Don't give us 50 rules when 25 will do.
  
  * Don't fake it. We'd rather be ineffective than deceived.
  
  * Anything we said 6 or 8 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. All comments become null and void after 7 days.
  
  * If you don't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.
  
  * If something we said can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad and angry, we meant the other one.
  
  * Let us ogle. If we don't look at other women, how can we know how truly pretty you are?(good too!)
  
  * Don't rub the lamp if you don't want the genie to come out.
  
  * You can either ask us to do something OR tell us how you want it done - but not both.:))
  
  * Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.
  
  * Christopher Columbus didn't need directions, and neither do we.(ha ha)
  
  * Consider Golf a mini-vacation from you. We need it, just like you do.
  
  * Telling us that the models in the men's magazines are airbrushed makes you look jealous and petty and it's certainly not going to deter us from reading the magazines.
  
  * The relationship is never going to be like it was the first two months we were going out.
  
  and yes I took pains to censor it b4 posting here :) so some good ones went!
