This I must have, and I will seek it with the point of my knife in a bad husband's heart if I can find it no other way. ↗

It takes a CONSTANT flowing of gas from the cylinder to keep the fire burning under your pot. “WOOING your woman” should be a continuous process. It should NEVER end after you get your “yes” from her. If you did a lot to get her, you should do more to keep her. ↗
