I have been told I am not assertive enough but the guys here DO have the NADS to deliver a well timed 2x4. Would someone please volunteer to train me to be more assertive? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> http://www.marriagebuilders.com/ubbt/sho...ID=#Post3230867Sistah Mel of the Timid Heart <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

As a recipient of a ML 2x4 I just have to say this: You can bring it with the best of them, sista <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

actually sometimes you bring twice the 2x4 others bring. Does that mean you wield a 4x8?

Mel...assertiveness training...Mel...assertiveness training...Mel assertiveness training...Mel... I am just having a hard time getting my mind around this concept. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> A girl with BIG HAIR, a Texas attitude, experience, a full vocabulary <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> , and a deep belief that good marriages are MADE, doesn't need assertive training. She doesn't need a pair either or MR. MEL is going to pretty upset. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I know Mel, you need more MASSIVE forearms. That 2x4 will flat hurt more if you had more MASSIVE forearms. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> However, in defense of the requestor (not you Mel) I think she just wanted more people to pile on so that the guy would get the idea it wasn't just Mel that has religion on this subject. Actually, Mel and Pep in assertiveness training would be some fun to watch. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Dear Lord, the person running that class wouldn't stand a chance. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> To quote a famous lady, the concept just makes me...SNORT. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Your good Mel don't let anyone tell you different, Ya Hear! God Bless, JL

Ok Guys since all of our Assertiveness Trainers are otherwise engaged I will start today lesson. Anyone care to join me?
Lesson one.
When a WS comes in talking fog babble you look at them real loving and in a kind voice( you do this as not to LB) Say hey I would love to hear what you have to say, however I need you to come back and do it after you pull your thumb from your hind parts. Can any any one elaborate on this? IF so feel free.

Oops My Bad. ML I thought that if you did it on a sweet way that it might pass as an assertive but respectful request.
Bring on the TUBE OF FOURs. Just don't tell me when you will swing it so I won't tense up. LOL
