“It’s all fun and games…” is how this warning starts.

Something you swear you’ll never say until you do say it, prompted — no provoked — by your children who are like little insane people when they play. An aside: they can also come off as little drunk people (although they’re not), garbling words, falling down, hollering like fools.

This admonishment applies to new love affairs and, come to think of it, long marriages as well. But best not to tell yourself this too, too much. You may never get hurt but you’ll also never have fun. Or games.

And that is my relationship advice for the day.
