Pretend

Although this married couple enjoyed their luxury fishing boat together, it was the husband who was behind the wheel operating the boat. He was concerned about what might happen in an emergency.

 

So one day out on the lake he said to his wife, "Please take the wheel, dear. Pretend that I am having a heart attack. You must get the boat safely to shore."

 

So she drove the boat to shore.

 

Later that evening, the wife walked into the living room where her husband was watching television. She sat down next to him, switched the TV channel, and said to him sweetly, "Please go into the kitchen, dear. Pretend I'm having a heart attack. You must set the table, cook the dinner, serve it and wash the dishes."

 

Selfish pretensions can work both ways and not necessarily in your favour all the time.
