One evening, Mary and Jack, a married couple with a knack for banter, found themselves embroiled in a heated argument over dinner.
Mary exclaimed, “Jack, how could you forget our anniversary? It’s like you have selective memory!”
Jack retorted, “Well, Mary, if I had selective memory, I’d choose to forget this argument right about now!”
Undeterred, Mary fired back, “You know, Jack, you never listen to me! It’s like talking to a brick wall.”
Jack chuckled, “A brick wall? At least walls don’t argue back. Maybe I should start taking lessons from them.”
As the exchange continued, the volume escalated, drawing the attention of their neighbors. Mary huffed, “I can’t believe I married someone so stubborn!”
With a mischievous twinkle in his eye, Jack quipped, “Well, dear, they say opposites attract. And in our case, I must be a magnet.”
Their argument reached its peak when Mary exclaimed, “You’re impossible!”
Jack, with a smirk, replied, “And yet, you manage to put up with me. That’s true love, right there!”
The neighbors, initially concerned, soon burst into laughter, realizing that Mary and Jack’s quarrels were more comedy than conflict.
In the end, amidst the laughter and playful jabs, Mary and Jack learned that sometimes, the best way to resolve a dispute is not with serious discussions but with a healthy dose of humor and a dash of love.
