Okay so a little slip no big deal. Interesting wife thinks you are reacting not taking action! I read into this power complex, W thinks you go out because she does. Tit for tat, complementing her makes her think hah, he still wants me, well now you know what it means to want. It is pathetic but all too common for a Wayward spouse to get this complex. It is because they are looking for affirmation.
I stopped complimenting my wife, last week she gets her hair cut comes home and I didn't say a thing. She asks me do you like it? I said it looks fine, what is more important is do you like it? She said yes, then procedes on monday to tell me how many guys at work complimented her hair. I listened looked her in the eye the whole time, and gently nodded my head. Funny how they want something else but just aren't all that sure of themselves.
I can now tell when my W. is fishing for compliments, she has only started that in the last 3 or 4 weeks. Ironically once I stopped giving them. I think of it like a chess match, this move won't win the game, but it may set up the next one that might. Not that it is a game, but you get the drift. That is why I wouldn't sweat the small slips too much.
