It actually works pretty well when I'm talking to my wife.

"Dear, you are absolutely right!"

I always find the claim hilarious that in relationships women are the ones who need to be appeased, when in reality it's mostly men who can't stand being wrong or corrected.

Gay male marriages remarkably have the lower divorce rates than heterosexual marriages, while lesbian female marriages have higher divorce rates. Multiple studies show that lesbians consistently have far higher divorce rates than gays. This implies a level of neuroticism with females, that they probably do need to be appeased more, and that if you have two needy people who need to be appeased it's probably not going to be a good dynamic.

I'm afraid reasons for breakups (and relationships in general) are not quite that simple.

Perhaps, yet your comments are quite simple, indicating you are not up to the task of understanding these matters.

Why the ad hominem? It seems like you are one of the men unable to stand corrected, funnily enough for this thread.

It's about establishing credibility. You didn't respond with any data or interesting information. Your comments are simplistic, betraying a level of simplicity in your thinking.

I actually enjoy being correctly corrected, however being incorrectly 'corrected' is obviously annoying. Like being lectured by a haughty child, see Louis CK's bit of his daughter insisting they're called Pig Newtons.

Best of luck to you in life.
