“I want to feel like you listen to me"
I am already out of the house by the time the Today show starts, so I have to read about it all online. And this one is from back in October!! I really need to watch more TV. 
First comes love, then comes marriage — and then comes the inevitable decline into boredom, stale sex routines and constant bickering. Or so says every popular television show featuring American family life. From TV shows like “The King of Queens” to “Everybody Loves Raymond” to as far back as “The Honeymooners,” Hollywood wants us to believe that long-term, committed relationships are the opposite of sexy.
And, as the divorce rate in our country testifies, Hollywood has us convinced. Most Americans consider long-term monogamy to be the equivalent of cruel and unusual punishment. However, as a relationship therapist, I have also found the opposite to be true — people want their marriages to work. They desperately want to live happily ever after. They just don’t know how. As more time goes by and the relationship becomes more off-track, they begin to lose hope, until they eventually just give up on the marriage.

Very nice, Canadian bacon. Haha...
"..........listen to me........." is the title of this thread. Everyone can see this is just a thin veil covering your real intention to describe how the NWA folks are not happy with their new marriage with DAL.
It was obvious that the northern folks lost excitement with their own and had to go to the hot southern folks to get their action going. I understand, as I lived in Grand Forks ND and know how cold it really gets.
Do you really love me?.... well, I don't know, but I really don't know how much I really love me either... Hey, ..."listen to me...."
I'm not really here either, but my computer has my authority to respond to any an all requests.

Of course, some like to walk into a casino and shove half of everything they own across the table on one hand of cards or a roll of the dice. It has a romantic flair.
