What makes you think I have influence on my H? I guess I don't see it over his stubborness and super machoness.
Yesturday, I decided to go back to my sweet loving self and "kill 'em w/ kindness" which seem to have worked in the past. I gave him a call at his work (I have not done that in a long time). I was cheerful and acting "as if", but I tried not to pressure him but first stating that I needed a favor IF and only if he was coming home tonight. What is it? I am cooking spagehetti and if you could please stop by the store and buy some garlic bread? Sure, I guess , but don't get use to it,this is a phrase he uses a lot after we had not been talking for awhile and I attempt to be kind and make the first move (as usual). Thanks so much I appreciate it!, I repleid.
As we sat in front of the tube eating ,he was proceeding to tell me something about work when he said "I know you probably don't care,but.... he went to tell me how he made sells of the week for the 2nd time in one month and hopefully he can make it for the quarter and if he does he will get $1000.00! I said wow what an incentive!! I said how great it is that they formally acknowlegded him in front of the others and what a great job he was doing I always knew he would do good w/ this position.
Later,before he went to sleep on the very uncomfortable futon, I brought him a matress cover and asked if he wanted it b/c it will make the futton feel softer. He took it and seemed pleased.
I really do not try on purpose to make him feel guilty, it just seems like whenever I am beign just me or nice he gives me the guilty body language!
So, please tell me why you think I have a good influence on him?
