It's an AH-HA moment.


I think you hit the nail on the head here BH. I know that's pretty much the case in my sitch. I used to do all the housework, grocery shopping, manly stuff etc and she'd come home and find fault with the way I cleaned the bath tub or some stupid thing like that. It's like nothing was ever good enough. That's what makes me wonder just why I want to make this work.
