FOOTBALL WIDOWS - SURVIVING EURO2008

Unfortunately for you, EURO2008 is HERE.

DO NOT SUFFER in passive silence. Here are some tips on how to survive the period where your partner is virtually "dead" to you, but totally alive and breathing ONLY football.

You are losing your partner. You do not have his attention anymore. He is like a wall. He doesn't reply you, or at best gives a monosyllabic answer.

You are pulling your hair out. He doesn't care.

You have a new love enemy. You have lost...to a soccer ball.

You are as good as a WIDOW. Victim of EURO2008.

You are.... a football widow...a EURO2008 WIDOW.

Definition of a FOOTBALL WIDOW
A football widow is a term for those who have a relationship with a sports fan (often a follower of football , be it American football , soccer , rugby , Australian rules football or other) who pays more attention to the game than to their partner during the sport's season of play.

GRIEVE NOT!!!

Take this Chance to Regain your Life

8 Things To Do To SURVIVE EURO 2008

#1 RE-ALIGN WITH GOD 

Your partner is your Mate, but GOD is your MAKER

Take the free time to draw closer to GOD.

Regardless of the level of "spirituality" we are in, it is always good to spend quality time with our MAKER.

Reading the Bible is one way of drawing close.

For those seeking directions in life, I strongly urge reading Rick Warren's "The Purpose Driven Life".

#2 SIT BESIDE HIM WHILE HE WATCHES THE GAME..... 

while you get yourself a nice COACH handbag!!

It doesn't mean that you have to be physically apart even though you have lost his "spirit and soul" during the 90mins.

Sit beside him, and do your ONLINE SHOPPING!

And guess what, if you pop up questions like "honey, can you buy me this?", "isn't this a perfect gift *from you to me?" during especially crucial moments like penalty kicks and free kicks, you bet the answer is going to be downright positive!!

*He won't even notice whether its "from you to me" or "from me to you"!!

Make full use of this opportunity, choose your new baby!

#3 ONLY IF YOU ARE ALREADY A MUM 

boost your parenting skills

Your children have been giving you problems lately.

The baby doesn't drink as much milk as he used to.

Or you feel that your daughter is too timid.

Or you want to keep your son from watching too much TV, and stop him becoming like the father.

It's time to beef up your parenting skills.

Check up parenting blogs or forums, you may find your answers there.

#4 LEARN BAKING 

Bake some cookies for him to munch while he watches the game

Don't know how?

DON'T WORRY! Baking Cookies is as SIMPLE as watering the plants.

And this is the perfect time to let your guinea pig try your baking skills! WHY? Because he'll probably says "nice" even if they taste like cow dung!

And he'll likely remember ONLY your efforts and NOT how they taste.

#5 Go for a SPA, FACIAL or EXERCISE 

Take the free time to pamper yourself. In case your "dead" spouse frowns upon you spending money on these treatments, tell him that :

* Massage can calm the nervous system and promotes a sense of relaxation and well being

* Massage can reduce tension and anxiety (hence reduces money on specialist fees for treating hypertension!)

* Massage can improve blood circulation

* Massage therapy can also help with pain management in common conditions such as arthritis, sciatica, muscle spasms.

Now, that should shut him up!

#6 SEDUCE HIM 

is it time for a baby?

You are absolutely devastated you lost to a soccer ball.

You want to redeem your dignity.

You want to score one over the game.

You want to STOP him from even watching it.

You want another baby, apart from him.

The ONLY way.....

#7 IF U CAN'T BEAT THEM, JOIN 'EM!! 

You have lost it.

Nothing you do can distract him.

Might as well join him then. When he has finished watching a game, ask him to continue & play a game on the console with you!

Who knows? This might just do the trick. He'll probably get a massive overdose and decides that he has enough of football!!
