\My wife is going to leave me in 5 days--help!

[AFWAW]

So, the wife called a little while ago. I didn't know it was her so I answered right away. She wanted to know about me helping w/ the old washer and dryer--she's giving it away to my son's friend. Anyway, I guess she didn't like that I was being cold with her. I didn't actually realize I was, so I guess I'm going to have to pay attention to that as that wasn't my intention. She asked if I was going to be a d@#$ everytime she talked to me from now on. I said, how exactly did you come to that conclusion? She said well you were one last night. I said that was not my intention. She said whatever and continued on about setting up a time for pickup of the old washer and dryer. Also talked about coming over tonight so we can take our cell phones to the mall and get them set up--get this, she is paying for them! Something is not right!

So help me out, I'm not very good at this. Did I do ok last night and she is just not used to me sticking up for myself or did I blow it? How do I stick up for myself and act in a loving manner without appearing like a doormat and/or a d$#%? Comments?????
