While we're on the subject of guys taking directions, I'd like to pose a not-so hypothetical question. I'll make it multiple choice. You're having an argument with your spouse; choose your subject, as this doesn't matter. She gets increasingly upset, and then suddenly stands up and says, "Just leave me alone" and stalks off to the bedroom, slamming the door behind her. The most correct interpretation of this action is:
a) I'm so angry with you I could spit, and if you care about us you'll leave me alone until I can deal with you again.
b) I'm really hurt, and if you care about us you'll follow me into the bedroom and comfort me. [note: we are NOT talking about sex!]
c) Either a or b.
d) Neither a nor b.
e) None of the above.
Justify your answer. By the way, Corrie is not the only one who's welcome to respond. OK, I'm all ears.
HERE is Edward Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump, on the back of his head, behind Christopher Robin...sometimes he feels that there really is another way [of coming downstairs], if only he could stop bumping for a moment and think of it.
