Funny letter excerpt from Einstein to his first wife

[Flyback]

"You will obey the following points in your relations with me:
1. you will not expect any intimacy from me, nor will you reproach me in any way;
2. you will stop talking to me if I request it;
3. you will leave my bedroom or study immediately without protest if I request it."

- From a letter to his first wife, Mileva Maric, in 1914

Hardcore :Q:laugh:

Who knew that Einstein was pimp?

I remember reading that Einstein was scared about getting married because he thought he would not have any further great ideas.

From what I've read about Einstein, he was brilliant scientifically, but horrible/absent towards his family.

That's usually how it works.

Brilliant, but still human.
