Pictures of Mrs. Cubic Zirconia without clothes may or may not have existed at one time in the past over a decade ago and earlier in our relationship as man and woman. As her husband, Mr. Cubic Zirconia cannot confirm or deny.  But if any alleged naked pictures did exist-- perhaps in a special, carefully-controlled and password-protected, digital format protected by a lock-and-key smartphone application -- such naughty nostalgia nudes, if these photos ever indeed existed, would have been lost in the great fully-clothed New Year’s Eve Merida Mexico midnight swimming pool dive of 2015.  But today’s email isn’t about one man’s hypothetical dumb, drunken decision not to put a waterproof case on his smartphone.  It’s about one man’s somewhat selfish belief that a private “boudoir” portrait painting or photography session might just be a very special once-or-twice-in-a-lifetime gift one spouse can give to another.  And that man shamelessly trying to convince tens of thousands of women, if need be, to do the same thing...to convince just one woman to do that one thing.

How long is too long to wait for him to propose marriage? 12 months? 3 years? Ten?

In any given intimate relationship, you should prepare yourself to learn one or more things that are strange, odd or just plain weird about this person with whom you're sharing your time and space and maybe life, too.

Here are 7 weird wife habits I didn't know were odd until my husband told me.

How can you be a better partner to her, even if you're short on time? Time is precious in a relationship-- especially when you know you could be doing better but aren’t quite sure how to improve things with the limited time you have available to invest in making your wife feel understood, appreciated, respected, and loved. Here are 7 quick ideas from Mr. Cubic Zirconia to help you become a better husband in 30 minutes or less.

There’s a thin line between love and hate-- and most spouses will tell you there are some annoying quirks his/her husband or wife have that become irritating pet peeves over years in close proximity.  But revenge isn’t the answer with a significant other (though the neighbor that complains about noise you and your partner never made is fair game to prank with a dog whistle that causes her canines to caterwaul all night long as the two of you crack up). If the offender is your other half, one way to show your displeasure with something in a fun way is a non-mean-spirited, light-hearted, good-old-fashioned spouse-on-spouse prank. Today we’re gonna have fun with 30 fun spouse-on-spouse pranking ideas.
