Increasing SWMBO self confidence

Have you just gone out and played, doing manoverboard [ in your case use fender] Picking up buoys, but take it in turns and see if you can each do it better than the other, talk about each move and work out between you how you could improve it , then try it, It is a great way to gain confidence and boats are ment to be fun. So go and play!!!

Re: Poor, sensitive souls....

Sorry for the delay in replying to your last - I have only just come in from tutoring a bunch of dayskippers on their shore based theory course!!
I'm with Scotty on this one - shy and retiring, so here endeth the lesson

Ah, now I see it all!

You are, yourself, a truly gorgeous hunk (My dear Sir - I never doubted it for an instant!) and you modestly attribute your spectacular success with you lady pupils (Hush, Sir! Do not demur! False modesty is quite unecessary here!) not to your consummate skills as a teacher of sailing and seamanship but to your hunkhood - a quality which you, yourself, being of the gentlemanly persuasion, undervalue most chronically as being a gift of 'er upstairs and no cause for undue self congratulation. All is explained to my complete satisfaction!

Well, sir, I, too, am a creature of nervous and sensitive disposition, so let us have no more of this beastliness! :-) :-)

Re: Ah, now I see it all!

Phew! Close one that! Thought I might have to retire to a quiet room and cry. Can't let the "Northsea Tigers" out here see me cry, I'm more yer' "Mediteranean Pussycat".

In response to : ".... those (Summerwind) who still believe that all most women do is simper and chatter and paint their nails and use their feminine wiles to get out of doing anything vaguely challenging. Think the last time I tried that was about 1977; I would have been seven years old...

Not ALL women simper. Not ALL women try to get out of challenging situations. Not all women turn on crying or tantrums, BUT, BUT BUT absolutely ALL women use their female wiles from time to time to manipulate men if they can in order to obtain what they want. My experience is that most women will give up their manipulating (Not allways with a happy heart) and get on with it if they discover that the easy way isn't working. Not ALL women paint their nails, but how many of 'em don't chatter?

As for the comment from another poster that a woman on my boat is unfortunate, my girlfriend doesn't seem to think so, but she and I think of each other as equals. There isn't much that I can do that she can't or won't try to do. I don't think her mother gave her life to cook and clean. She doesn't think my mother gave me life to provide and skivvy for her.

Re: ***SCIENCE NEWSFLASH***

"Yesterday scientists revealed that beer contains small traces of female hormones. To prove their theory, the scientists fed 100 men 12 pints of beer and observed that 100% of them gained weight, talked excessively without making sense, became emotional, and couldn't drive. No further testing is planned."
