fandomhigh | Relationships: How To Do It The Right Way - Monday

The classroom smelled a lot like pineapple today. The smell would only get worse the closer you got towards Marshall. Hope you like fruit.

“Hey guys. I hope you had better weekends than I did. I spent most of it as a fruit and my wife used my butt as a spider squasher,” Marshall said. “It was gross.”

“Anyways, we talked about fights this week and today we’re going to be talking about making up from said fights. Making up isn’t always easy. Sure, sometimes flowers and weepy apologies work but sometimes you have to really work at it—especially if you were a huge jerk,” he said. “The great news is after you make up you get to have make up sex. Make up sex is some of the greatest sex you can have. Don’t worry. I won’t go into detail about that and creep you out.”

“When making up the first thing you want to do is start with the verbal apology. Admitting you are wrong has a lot of power since most people are stubborn bastards most of the time. It sucks and it’s tough to do but it’ll get you a lot of points,” Marshall said. “And if you’re on the receiving end of a person apologizing please acknowledge how hard it was for them and ease up a bit. Making up takes two people.”

“The crappy fact is that sometimes it just takes time. People need their space after a fight, they need to think things through and you need to give them that space,” Marshall said. “But don’t give them too much space otherwise they might think you don’t care anymore. Timing is everything.”

“Oh, and another important thing? Tread lightly after a fight. You may have made up but your significant other isn’t going to forget about it anytime soon. You just want to be very, very nice for a month or so after,” Marshall paused. “I mean, you should be nice all the time but be extra super duper nice after a fight.”

Marshall folded his arms over his chest. “I was going to have you guys do some fighting and then making up but that’s just way too depressing. Today we’re going to sit in a circle and say nice things about each other. I don’t care if you compliment someone’s socks. Today we’re all being nice.”

Marshall didn't actually have to go into details for Angela to be mildly creeped out.

Fortunately, she was too busy boggling over the fruit thing to think about it too carefully.

For a second there, Dick thought the whole class was going to be about makeup sex. That would have been really weird.

Francine was already permanently in a state of mildly creeped out by (yet train-wreckily curious about) Marshall's sex life, so he really didn't need to go into details, no.

I’m stealing a move from my fake wife and providing an example (http://baskiceball.livejournal.com/3904.html?view=47424#t47424) of how this’ll go.

A) HEY NOW you made an excellent spider squisher.

2) I am so dead of example. (WALK IT OFF, LOIS.)
